Random Phone Pictures

I take a lot of pictures with my phone and some of them are blog-worthy.

 

Jason brought me flowers for Mother's Day and I did a cheesy shot.

 

 

I was lying on Christie's bed one day, playing and reading books with her.  She grabbed her bunny and I said, "Love your bunny!"

 

There was a 6th grade band concert -- Jacob plays the trumpet! -- so we walked down the trail to school as a family.  Warms my heart to live right here and to have my boys attend this darling school.

 

Strawberry time!

 

Beautiful sunset.

The boys escorted Rosemary into the church meetinghouse on Sunday, Mother's Day, in Idaho.  The boys have grouchy looks on their faces but they really were in a good mood.  They were taking their task seriously, I think, and I just happened to catch their scowl.

 

Jimmy received a "Golden Paw" award for his 3rd grade class the other day.  I was so proud of him.  He's had a great year.  And we LOVE Mr. B.

 

Sweet Christie in her morning pajamas.

 

It was great to be in Texas again this past weekend.  I flew to Dallas for a fun weekend with my sister that lives there.  We toured the newly opened George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum yesterday, Memorial Day, and had a lot of fun.  I spent about four days with my dearest Amy and had the best time ever.  I miss Texas and my sister and brothers that live there.

Mother's Day - Idaho

We spent Mother's Day with our dear mother and grandmother, Rosemary, down in Idaho.  We enjoyed endured freezing cold ice-wind and rain, but we didn't let that dampen our spirits!  Jason and I enjoyed a trip to the temple, which is what I really wanted to do for Mother's Day.  It was lovely.  I loved looking over at Jason during the session and see him wink and wave at me.  Sweet husband. 

 

The kids always have a blast there at Grandma's house.  It's so much fun for them to play outside with limitless space!  I don't blame them for loving it there.  Uncle Marty makes great effort to show them a good time, letting them ride 4-wheelers, working on a fence or in the garden, hunting for deer horns, boat rides, etc.  He's the best.

 

On Sunday, Mother's Day, we had a delicious meal after church with many family members, which Jason totally prepared start to finish.  I sat on the couch all day.  He also bought me a beautiful flower bouquet and chocolate-covered strawberries.  Rosemary just turned 89 so we were happy to spend time with her and make her feel loved and happy.  She's such an angel.

 

 

Of course, I can't drive through the Gallatin Canyon without taking a picture of my favorite river!
