ThrowBack Thursday ~ Fun hike...

June 2018

We had a fun afternoon hiking to Grotto Falls near Payson.

Cash, Colby, and Grey have grown so much in just 6 short years! 

Sweet moment...

 

It was just the sweetest moment to hear Colby reading a book to Grey and Grahm, and with Cash in the background playing the piano. I can't even begin express how grateful I am for these moments. I love Cash, Colby, Grey, and Grahm more with each passing day. 

Tucker and Katie...

 

Tim and I enjoyed a quick trip to St. George for Tucker and Katie's wedding. Katie is a sweetheart and we are so happy they found each other. She fits in the family perfectly!

Bob and Robyn's backyard is dreamy. They have worked so hard to make it so. It's definitely the party place! It was the perfect backdrop for the reception. It was fun to spend the evening catching up with some family members. 

Their garden is amazing! 

Just 300 mini charcuterie treats!

Abe was a wonderful MC during the evening.

Cute cousins Shep and Zane in matchy matchy outfits!

The brothers think they can dance!

What happens in St. George stays in St. George!

Congratulation Tucker and Katie!

ThrowBack Thursday ~ Memorial Day memories...

 

After piano lessons...

It's so much more than piano lessons. We looked forward to this time with our grandsons each week. It will always be one of my most cherished memories. 

Colby and Grahm wanted to make pizza. Colby did a fine job of tossing the dough and Grahm shucked the corn. 

Grandpa got the tires fixed on Colby's bike and then Colby helped him adjust the brakes. Grahm found a tiny grasshopper to play with!

Colby and Grahm have a secret handshake and at the end they hug each other. Grahm also patted Colbs on the back. It was very sweet to watch them. They do love each other, I can tell!

Hurry back Colbs and Grahmy!

Waiting...

 

And I will wait upon the Lord, that hideth his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him.

Psalms 27:14

What, then, does it mean to wait upon the Lord? In the scriptures, the word wait means to hope, to anticipate, and to trust. To hope and trust in the Lord requires faith, patience, humility, meekness, long-suffering, keeping the commandments, and enduring to the end.

Waiting upon the Lord means to “stand fast” (Alma 45:17) and “press forward” in faith, “having a perfect brightness of hope.”  (2 Nephi 31:20)

Waiting upon the Lord gives us a priceless opportunity to discover that there are many who wait upon us. Our children wait upon us to show patience, love, and understanding toward them. Our parents wait upon us to show gratitude and compassion. Our brothers and sisters wait upon us to be tolerant, merciful, and forgiving.
