You've Got to Taste the Bitter

 to appreciate the sweet!

The BITTER - but Jennis confident that little BLAIRE FISHER (6 months) will be fine under the care of the children's hospital in Lehi, Utah.  

In the meantime, here are her two older sisters under the ever watchful eye of Grand ma Hackworth.  

Her's me trying on some Easter finery with Sheryl Sullivan.  This makes me want an Easter hat!

I love it; it's adorable.

Made Me Smile

 This is Jordan's signature when he emails others.  It's so funny.  And clever.  And real.  

It's good to have a doctor who is not pompous.

It's Been a Month of....

 fun and family and food and friends:

Bri and Jackson on Valentine's Day......

Jaxon fell on the concrete and got his front tooth knocked out.  

It's always so fun to have Bill and Donna come to stay with us.  This time they introduced us to some wonderful delightful friends.  Dan and Margaret and Lue, who is truly one of the most remarkable women I have ever met.  She went on a mission with her husband to the Easter Islands.  She had fish and rice for 18 months; no water, no electricity.  The couple who came after them lasted only two months.  What a lady  of grit and faith.  I loved meeting these wonderful people.

Allen surprised with me with this lovely Cyclamen...but can I keep it alive for more than one week?

Jenni had us over for dinner - what a meal and decor.

Wonderful salad.  Jenni made that flower arrangement.  I forgot to take a picture of the meal.  It was spare ribs and funeral potatoes.    With the strawberries for dessert.  JUST DELICIOUS.

Card from Jenni by the plate....

From our wonderful RS president; it included an immune drink, lotion, face mask, and chocolate.

Justin texted this picture.  It made me so very happy.  They had invited Oscar over for dinner.  Of course, that just made this heart happy.  I LOVE THESE GOOD FUN PEOPLE.  

Cutest Great Grandkids Celebrate a Birthday!

 

Evan is so much like his dad.  I often call him Sean.  He's so smart and he loves LEGOS!

Blowing out NINE candles; how fast they grow!

And, now about that Asa Fisher?  If he isn't just the cutest little three year old, or is he two?  Two, I guess....

He just makes me smile.  

Happy birthday you Fisher kids.  You are so blessed to have wonderful parents.

When Friends Send a Note....

 ..it certainly is appreciated!  Thanks, Heather, for the thankful note.  I love and appreciate you.  And, your service as Relief Society president over many years.

That Day When Calder Got Ordained

My absolute favorite picture from that day.  I still don't know how Justin did it, but this isn't photo shopped in any way.  He just caught it at the time when Calder was in the air! 

Sunday, January 18, 2025 in Provo, Utah.

I LOVE these Book Club Ladies!

 Simply - the Best of the BEST!

Tamy Oliver - her lovely home

Katrina Householder, Peggy Hrabar, Rachel Webb, Rachel Bills, Heather Smith, Loretta Allam.

And, yes, we actually did discuss the book, but we had a great time sharing some fun stories. 

 I feel so blessed to have these women in my life!  Thank you Heavenly Father.
