Connie's Surprise!

Homer surprised Connie for her birthday by flying Sariah and Conner here for a few days. They had been in California for Dr. appointments for the baby. It was so much fun to see Connie's reaction. We all love Sariah and Conner and were so happy to see them. Happy Birthday Connie! We all love you so much and hope you and Homer have a wonderful time in Hawaii!!!!

Sister's Get Away (late post)

I actually wrote this in March. We did this outing during my Spring Break.

This year instead of going away to the mountains to a cabin my sisters all came down here. We thought this time we would spend our time with our sweet mother. Wednesday night they arrived and Connie and Eileen spent the night at my house. Linda stayed with my mom at her place though. We got up Thursday morning and went for a long walk all around the the Riparian across the street from me. We walked about two or three miles around it. After we showered and got cleaned up we took mom to buy her some new shoes and had lunch at the mall. Then we headed for the Marriot in Chandler. We had a real nice room.
Friday, we got up and exercised in the hotel workout room and then we went and picked up mom and took her out to lunch at Serano's and then off to Walmart to get her shopping done. Linda wanted to stay with her that evening so Eileen, Connie, and I went back to the hotel. We changed and went in to the Jacuzzi. It felt so good and was so relaxing. After that we watched a movie.
Saturday morning we got up and met Linda and mom at the Temple. We had mom and Aunt Fleda sealed to their parents. Josh came to help. Mom looked like an angel all dressed in white. Afterwards, Aleia met us outside the Temple and took pictures of us. Thank you Aleia. We then went to lunch and then my sisters all headed home. I took my mom home and then went to Target and then home to finish working on my primary lesson.
Ron had been at a swap meet all day and is totally worn out! Is he getting old or what? Anyway, we had a good time with mom, but I think she may get down since everyone has gone home. So...everyone call her and let her know you love her!
