Today we said our final farewells to a mother and grandmother whose heart was filled with generosity.  She struggled to see others going without and made a lifetime of giving.  She will be laid to rest tomorrow in Utah.

Our Thanksgiving was full of  fun, experiences and goodbyes.

Happy 15th!

Veterans Day

Parade

I am so proud of my son and Troop 420.

The respect and honor they showed to those who served brought me to tears as I marched beside my son.

First Friday Art Walk

Obreys were singing and signing!

Handicap This!

performance enjoyed as a mother-son date night.

Listening intently (between the laughter) at the message.

Chase with Mike and Tim after the show.

Thanks Denis for the FLIP message

He finally made it to the pool!

Pure joy.

He has been patient now for a well over a week.

Halloween Memories

2014

Last game of the Fall 2014

for the Miracle League.

See everyone in the spring.

 Nathan spent quite a bit of time being independent.

 Both boys kissed their trophy.

Note to self:  Empty Chase's pockets before the next Primary Program at church.
Before the second song ended he had played a Popsicle stick harmonica, placed a gold medal around his neck and pulled out a spy glass to see the audience better.
Good thing he didn't bring out the duck call that I discovered in those very pockets after the performance.

The Central Scare!

yes, it was scary.

Thankfully I brought a body guard!

Thanks Austin.

Samantha, you put on a stellar performance.

I can't wait until next year.

Living her dream

How could I not support her. She has dreamed of this since she was a child.

My daughter is learning to fly!

That face says it all.  Had I fought it, I might not have been privileged to see it.
