Beautiful family!



Enjoying the sun at the park.

So for the past few days I have been in Michigan with my son Ryan his wife Liz and my cute grandkids, Collin, Ashlyn, and Shaylee. I loved every minute of it! We jumped on the tramp, went to the park, saw movies-at home and at the theater. (Just a word of advice. If you have seen Planet Earth on TV-DO NOT go see Earth in the theaters-it is as my son Ryan said, "Planet Earth repackaged and put on the big screen for Disney to make money." That is right! Sorry Collin. Next time Grandma Lisa will take you to a show like Monsters vs. Aliens-which I should have known would have been better!)

I have to say that being a Grandma is one of life's greatest gifts and I absolutely love it! I miss you already Collin, Ashlyn and Shaylee. Maybe you could put pressure on your Dad to move out at least to the West Coast! :) Just had to put that plug in Ry.

My greatest thanks to my wonderful "Michigans" for having me out. It was awesome!! I love you!

Last Week

Successful Easter Egg Hunt!

Hey! I found some candy!!!

Beautiful Dancer!!

Proud Grandparents!!

I know this is a little late but I wanted to post some pictures from last week's events. Breena had a dance recital on Thursday-her last one before she moves to Texas:(. Also some pics from our Saturday Easter Celebration.

It snowed last night and it is April 16th-what is up with that?! We here in South Jordan were lucky though because we only got 2 inches. Down south in Utah County, 6-8 inches were common-yuck! Our peach tree is in bloom as well as our nectarine tree-hmmm-I wonder how many peaches or nectarines we'll have? Zero if they all got frozen or maybe just a few BIG ones if the frost just thinned them. Time will tell.

I have to say I am ready for the warm weather that is coming. Hooray for 60s and 70s and blue sky. Maybe we could just skip forward to Saturday?! :)

Easter

Yesterday I was reading in the Ensign about the last week in Christ's life. In the article it describes the mock trial and then I read, "After both the Jewish hearing and the Roman trial, Jesus was subjected to abuse; mocking, scourging, spitting. " Then, "Jesus willingly suffered our pains, afflictions, and infirmities that He might 'take upon him the pains and the sicknesses of his people' and that He might 'know. . .how to succor his people according to their infirmities".
He the only perfect Being, suffered these injustices for us. He knows how we feel and how to help us when we struggle. He loves us! He broke the bands of death and sin that we could have the opportunity to come Home.
I know He lives. I hope to become more like Him in this refining process we call life.
