Today my friend Karen Schneider planned a "Bon Voyage" luncheon for me at Olive Garden. She invited friends that I have made throughout my years in Chandler. Here are some of the people who came: Diana Dowdle, Adrienne Ellsworth, Drea Boles, Jean Lamoreaux, Jacque Hatch, Terry Farnsworth and her Mom Marcia Lambson, Jackie Hall, Charlotte Mattice, Karen Schneider, and Sheri. Cathi was invited but didn't come because she is planning her Mom's funeral. Laura is out of town and Cid Elmer is helping Cathi plan her Mom's funeral. Karen had a cupcake cake that said Bon Voyage and a basket of goodies and a book by Ardeth Kapp. Jacque Hatch brought me red tulips and Drea took pictures of me with everyone to put in a book that everyone signed. Karen went around the table and made everyone say something about me. Although I don't like being the center of attention, I was touched and it was alot of fun. I do appreciate Karen and her grand ideas! Drea had to take lots of extra photos because I kept closing my eyes. Those darn camera flashed do it to me every time.
Sheri and I had a heart to heart with Stacy about moving this afternoon. James worked in San Carlos today and this evening he went on visits with the stake as part of our ward conference.
