Attempt #2

What about if we all tried to get together the weekend of the 20-22nd of June??? I think I talked to most of you and you acted like you thought it would work. I have a few more to contact but thought I would give it a try here. Anyway, try and plan for it. Also, just a little reminder that newsletters are coming up to be due...

Jellys at the beach

We went to the beach yesterday. When we got there Santa Monica animal control was there. She said there had been a report of a jellyfish. Okay. I thought they didn't come ashore around here much, although in the gulf you do have a problem with them. Saw lots of dolphins really jumping around. Then about an hour later, sure enough, there was a washed up jelly fish about the size of a dinner plate, on the beach. I flipped it over so it's tentacles were under it and the boys and gathering crowd had fun touching the top of it. We then got a bucket and threw it away. Didn't want someone to step on it. Didn't have my camera, but it was clear, and you could see a bit of colored parts in the middle, but not much as it was dead. I would've thought it to be gooier than it was. As it was the top was quite solid and rubbery feeling.

Just so everyone who doesn't know

knows. We are having a boy.

Happy Birthday Chester!!!!

I guess you now realize that you are the age your mother was when we all moved to Idaho approx. 30 years ago. You were only two and quite a handful! I know everyone tells you that you were the "unwanted" child but that is by no way true. I just was not quite ready to be pregnant again at that time but I soon learned that that was what Heavenly Father wanted me to do. In fact you and Truman are amost exactly two years apart, further than any of the others. And because Dad had moved to Sedalia and I was still in Waynesville trying to sale a home, and with the four other children I was induced about three weeks early. I had gone up to visit Dad and was staying in a trailer with these four little ones that would not leave the phones alone, we still had operators that would answer them when picked up back then. All I wanted to do was have a baby so finally Dr. Stockwood decided he could induce me. I know I was not in labor very long and when it was time for your delivery Dad was busy at the office and could not come over so I delivered alone, again. He came over soon after delivery and as I was nursing you for the first time I had been talking to Dad, not paying much attention to you, and when I looked down you had turned blue. Dad called for the nurse and a stethoscope. The nurse took you back to the nursery where they removed a mucous plug from your nose and you were fine after that. You had these long eyelases. dark hair and blue eyes, I thought a really pretty baby. We did go back to Waynesville for a few days but by June we had moved to Sedalia where Dad bought us a home so we could move all together. You were a good baby and always happy. Happy Birthday to you and may your children bring you as much happiness as my children bring me. Luv Mom and Dad

Inside the Jazz Locker Room

IN between the wedding luncheon (Brett's brothers') and the reception we killed some time by going over to the Jazz Practice facility. The kids had fun putting on the players shoes, considering most of them are atleast a size 12 to 17. Kyle Korver has an inscription of Prov 3:5-6 (he is pretty religious) so I got a pic of that and tan just loves AK 47 so he sat in his chair.
