Summer Fun

The weather in Las Vegas has been beautiful this summer. No super hot temperatures yet. Father's Day is coming this weekend, and with it my dad's 78th birthday on Friday, Megan's 21st birthday on Monday, and then Sean's around the corner, right after that is my moms 69th, then Joel's at the end of July, then Megan and Joel 2nd Wedding Anniversary the same week as Curtis and my 31st Anniversary. We are not sure yet if we can make it to the Warren's famous 4th of July Celebration yet..but we did send them some Crackling Whip to help with the festivities of the day anyway. I think it is quite interesting that our two son-in-laws have their birthdays the same month. Both in July, along with my mom's. We have a pool in our Condo complex, and hope to use it soon. We have just started using the exercise room there. We are enjoying the nice weather, and looking forward to all the B-day celebrating.

The Wonderful Wedding is a Memory now!

Kirsten and Sean Creel were sealed on May 2nd in the Las Vegas, Nevada Temple. All of our children were present, as well as many family members and friends. Everything came off without a hitch. We were really blessed. We so enjoyed the company that came to town. It was terrific to be with everyone. I have many favorite moments...one was when Alice from the Palace arrived. She is a very loved baby, and we all swarmed in on her. She ate up the attention, and we captured the most wonderful photo of her in Kirsten's arms smiling a huge, big smile for us all. I also loved being in the brides room with Kirsten, and being able to hold her hand in the sealing room, listening to the sealer speak was a tender moment. Watching Sean and Kirsten get sealed sent chills up my spine. It was so touching to see them there at the alter. A huge reward to parenting. Just the best. The reception was lovely...it was just a very joyous day! I woke up at 4:30am and went to bed at around 1:30pm. It was one of the favorite days of my life. I just loved it. Thank you to everyone who took part in making it that way! Especially a big thank you to all my children and their spouses, and child you are the lights of my life.
