Bronson's Desert Party (Monday)

(On Thursday, April 5th we headed for AZ with the Kesler's and Valentine Families.  We went as far as    Las Vegas the first night and on to Mesa on Friday.  Here's a picture re-cap of some of our festivities:)   (We sure missed Nappy, Jed and Landon)

We all went to the Easter Pageant Saturday Night at the Mesa Temple grounds.  Most of the kids fell asleep before it was over! 

Meeting  John the Baptist

One of the Pharisee's 

Lucas' Hospital Stay - (again!)

While I was in Mesa helping Shara with Lincoln - Lucas came down with a bad case of pneumonia.  He was hospitalized for 6 days!  Mark picked me up at the airport on Saturday and we headed to Payson Hospital to see this boy.  He was starting to feel better but couldn't keep his oxygen count high enough.  We brought Kody and Ryker home with us and kept them for a week.  They hung out with Gramps in the mornings until I got home from work.  We sure did enjoy having them here!  (I forgot to take any pics during that week - we were too busy!) 

Got some game playing time in!

Hanging out with Hadley! 

Finally feels like eating a hamburger! 

January 2012

My Aunt Carrie passed away and I was able to attend her funeral.  It was so nice to see all my extended family I hadn't seen for a long, long time. 

These two loved to hold their new baby brother.  They didn't like him to be all wrapped up and swaddled though!



Some cute photo's of the kiddos.




Fun things we did - popcorn, Grama Great taught Abby to play Hopscotch, dance class, trip to the mall for carousel ride, chicken nuggets and ice cream, playing at the park, etc.  I love to be able to help my girls when they have a new baby - just one of the perks of being a Grama! 



#9 Has Arrived!

Our 9th grandbaby - Lincoln Nicholas Call - arrived this morning about 8:00!  I'll be headed to Mesa soon!  He weighed the very same as his mom did - 6 lbs. 15 oz.   Oh so sweet!
