MaKayla's Senior Ball - November 17th, 2012

It is hard to believe that our oldest granddaughter is a senior in High School! It is fun experiencing it through her eyes. These pictures are from her Senior Ball. She looked so beautiful.

 Her Mask!

This is when she came home from school one day, and found her dress and mask. It was a surprise from her mom and I. She had been wanting it for a few weeks, but didn't know we bought it for her.

Alex - November 10th, 2012

Alex is a very talented musician. He plays the Piano, Viola, and the Violin. He is in several Orchestra's.   The  Lyceum Philharmonic Orchestra played and recorded a special with the" Piano Guys". He also performed in a beautiful Veteran's Day Concert. They will be going on tour in the spring to Las Vegas, Tuacahn (here in St. George), and Phoenix. We don't see Alex as often as we would like, and he hates being in pictures, but he let me take these before his concert. Our oldest grandson is a very handsome young man!

Gwyneth's Baptism - November 10th, 2012

Gwyneth was baptized on a cold November morning. There was a storm during the night that left 10 inches of snow. It was very peaceful. Everything was so clean and beautiful, just like Gwyneth after her Baptism. She looked so pretty in her new white dress!

Ali's 10th Birthday - November 5th, 2012

Ali turned 10 this year. She had a friend party at her clubhouse, and then the family got together here to open presents and have cake. She was very excited to get her very own sewing machine.

Quilting! November 3rd, 2012

Ali came for the weekend. She has been sewing scraps from a quilt that I made her, and she is making a quilt for her little sister Lilly. I was teaching her how to tie a quilt. She did a great job!

Halloween 2012

The little grandkids got dressed up and went to visit their great grandma. (The Assisted Living home was having a Halloween party) It was the hottest Halloween I can remember. At the school parade, the kids were all sweating in their costumes. Brad's family came for the weekend, and it was fun having little ones here carving pumpkins. They are very creative. I took MaKayla to Tuacahn to see "Thriller" It was a fun Halloween.
