Another email from Eliza

Today I got an email from Eliza.  Sent at 7:54am.

Mom the Tooth Fairy didn't come!

Darn.
This was an especially big bummer since the lost tooth became doubly lost when it slipped out of Eliza's hands, between the seats in the car yesterday, and joined hundreds of little cracker chunks that all look like little teeth.

Rich Serving at McKell's Wedding

An old picture I finally stumbled across . . .

A very gourmet affair!

Lesson help

Aunt Carolyn called this morning to remind me about Daylight Savings Time.
She asked what my Sunday School lesson is on tomorrow.  I told her the priesthood.  She said she had some ideas that I could share.  And she wouldn't feel bad if I used them.
She told me to share how the Wilson family (she and her siblings) would have to "count off" when they got in the car.  And how they always had to have a buddy.  And how when they went on long road trips, they would take sack lunches.
She told me, "If you want to take one of those ideas for your lesson tomorrow, that might help you out a bit."
Well, at least the reminder about Daylight Savings Time will.

More Than Just a Chef

Rich is more than just a chef these days.  Now he's showing off his artistic skills.  Check out this super cool ice sculpture he did for a class final (can I pretty please have finals like that???)!

Nice work, Rich!

Valentine's Love!

I think Mom typifies love.  Even if she did make us eat cornmeal mush growing up :)  This picture says it all with the way she holds Samantha--and the way she rocked each of us as we were up in the night.  Thanks for teaching us how to love, Mommie!  I love you.

Caught on Camera in Uniform At Last!
