~~Happy Halloween~~

This year I did not do anything great! My costume was just out of bed. I know clever. I joined the Garrett clan at the church for trunk-or-treat. The young kids looked so cute!!! We had Little Bo-Peep with her sheep. The older girls were 80's something???? Lots of fun though.



These 80's girls had way to much energy!!!

We even had an Angel and a Devil!!














Little Bo-Peep With her sheep!!! How cute are they












I bought this costume for Tango last year but used it again this year is he not the cutest Bat "Dog" you have seen!!

**My Angel**


On October 09 2008 my beloved friend, neighbor, surrogate mother, and one of the best Grandmothers anyone could have passed away. She had struggled for the past couple of months with her health. Over the last couple of months I spent a lot of time visiting her in the hospital. She turned 93 in June and though her body slowly went her mind was still so sharp. I hope that my mind will be like that when I get older. For those of you who did not know her. She loved Pepsi, was one of the biggest Utah Jazz fans I knew, she was a Mother of two, Grandmother of Ten, I think she had around 23 great-grand kids, and 5 great-great grandkids. She lived most of her life in Thatcher and I was lucky to have been her neighbor for 29 years. She could recite many poems and stories but there was one that only seemed fitting to give at her funeral. My aunt memorized and recited it in memory of her and did such a great job. It is called HOME by:Edgar A. Guest If you have time you should take a moment and read it.

Good & Bad

So good and bad over the last couple of months. I will stat with the good. My dad had his surgery and is doing remarkably well. I found out my friends are expecting there first child in March!!! I had a Birthday and bought a camera so as soon as I figure out how to use it I will start to post more. Though with all of the good things that are happening my grandma is not doing so well. She has been in and out of hospitals since the end of May. We got her home last Monday just to turn around and have her go back in Tuesday Morning. They say we might be able to bring her home tomorrow. So we will just have to wait and see.
