A perfect 223

For several years I have bowled on a mixed bowling league. This is something that I have always enjoyed. I have worked hard to improve my average every year. Right now my average is 158. I have bowled a 200 game only twice in my life. Tonight, however, I bowled my best game ever - I bowled a 223. And it was a "perfect" 223, meaning I marked in every frame (either a spare or strike). I am very happy and proud of this accomplishment. Unfortunately my last game of the night was a very low 112. So much for consistency!

Shellise's School Picture

I just wanted to share Shellise's school picture with you because it shows off her "new" hair style. Isn't it absolutely adorable on her? I love it!

A Fall Day!

I was working in the Bountiful area today. The air was cool and crisp. The leaves are starting to change into beautiful fall colors. I was really enjoying the scenery. Here is a view from the South Bountiful bench overlooking the Bountiful Temple and the Valley.

Kind of smoggy, but from high up on the bench you can see the Great Salt Lake. The smog makes it difficult to see.

Here is another view of the Bountiful Temple. Isn't it beautiful?

As I drove past, I couldn't help but stop and take a picture of this beautiful, majestic, glorious temple. I really enjoyed this fall day. I also enjoy my job. I am so grateful that I don't have to be stuck in an office...that I am able to drive all around, listen to good music on the radio and enjoy all the beautiful things that God has made for us to enjoy.

Are you enjoying the Autumn temperatures and scenery?

Hurry! It will soon be winter!

Wedding Invitation

Grandma's 85th Birthday Bash!

And what a bash it was!

For my grandma's 85th birthday we wanted to do something really special for her, to honor her and the life she has lived. So on Saturday, September 20th, we held an Open House in her honor. We invited many friends and family, and many people came. Many people that she hasn't seen in a long time came which meant so much to her. We had good food, birthday cake, and family members brought scrapbook pages of their families to put into a nice scrapbook for her, and we took some fun pictures. It was enjoyable to see and listen to all the people gather and talk and enjoy each other's company. Grandma really enjoyed this day. I hope she felt special, which she very much is. I hope we did a great job of honoring such a fine, elect lady. She is definately worth it. This was a day all of us will remember always.

Here are a few fun pictures.

Announcing The BIG Day!

I just wanted to let you all know that our wedding date has been set for November 8th at 5:00 p.m. The ceremony will be at my sister's home in West Jordan with an open house to follow. Nothing big or fancy, just simple, and perfect for us. I will post a formal invitation once they are completed. I am so excited to finally be able to move forward. It has been a long haul but I am really glad and truly blessed to be where I am, who I am, and who I am with right now. Thanks for all your support.
