Happy 7th Birthday Emmy! I called Emmy today and wished her a happy birthday. When I asked her what she liked best in her birthday box she thought for awhile and said: "The bouncy balls!" (Oh, you mean the ones that cost less than a dollar?)
Harold, Vickie, and Madison are in Washington state. Harold and Vickie take their grandkids on a trip when they graduate from the 8th grade. Madison wanted to go to Seattle and to Forks to see where Twilight was filmed. I know this because Vickie called me on Friday to wish me a Happy Anniversary. I wish we could take our grandkids on a trip...this year that would be Michael and Alex. I feel like a slacker grandma.
We went on a Ranger ride today. James showed me "The Village." Alex, Ben and Joe were talking about it when they were here. It is an old abandoned Boy Scout camp, A-frame cabins, outhouse, and all.
For FHE James and I watched Wendy DeWitt's DVD on food storage. We were both very impressed with her system. She is in the Vernon ward during the summer and I have wanted to talk to her but I am a little intimidated. She will be my "contact" this week. I knew her husband Collin when I was growing up in Phoenix. We were in the same ward. I remember him but he doesn't remember me. I remember him because I liked the name Collin and because I thought he was cute.
