There's some pretty good stuff so

GO LOOK AT THEM!

I thought of Dad when.......my itunes was on shuffle and Three Dog Night "Old Fashioned Love Song" came on. Love you Dad!!!!!

Now I'm listening to Neil Daimond "Coming to America." This song screams Emily! It also makes me think of every fun fourth of July we spent together as a family.

Here is a little video of Mason, so mom and dad can get a taste of his personality.

MAN FROM SNOWY RIVER!!
I thought of dad today as I listened to the Man From Snowy River soundtrak in my car. It is awesome! Does it get better than Jim Craig??

Fly Over

I'm not sure who I told, but Kevin is leading a four ship flyover at the Notre Dame/Pittsburgh game on Sat. October, 9. It should be televised so be sure to watch.

He is getting a few extra tickets so I'm planning on getting a babysitter for a few days and driving up there for the weekend. I am so excited to go to a Notre Dame game! What an opportunity!

I know how much Mike loves Notre Dame football so we offered he and Lezli the extra tickets. I hope they can come! What a fun weekend!!!

These are a couple of buck that like to hang out in our backyard.


A few days ago I was upstairs whil Josie, Lily, and Zach were playing downstairs. I turned around and was met by this pleasant surprise.

Yoda baby!

Go Pink Thunder!!!!

Maggie's team won all three game sets tonight!

(A huge improvement from last week ~ they lost all three)

Set 1: 26-18

Set 2: 26-19

Set 3: 25-24

GO PINK THUNDER!!!!!

I thought of mom and dad Wednesday night while I was at Brigham's football game. It was great to watch him play and chat with Rebecca & watch Brian pace anxiously back and forth down the sidelines!

WOW! We didn't know Kevin could move like that. That is one for posterity. We loved watching the Gadd family dance.

I thought of Rebecca when dad and I walked past a church down the street and there is a sign outside that advertises jazzercize classes. Music was playing and ladies were in the church exercising up a storm. It made me think of Rebecca and her great commitment to keep others as well as herself in great shape. Go you chicken fat go! (Just an expression from the 80's)

I thought of Rebecca, Emily, Molly and Mandi when I saw Trapper Keepers in the school supplies section in KMart the other day. Oh the memories.

I thought of Ricky the other day when we visited the graveyard in Mendon, New York where Heber C. Kimball's father and Brigham Young's first wife are buried. I knew he'd love it.

I thought of each of you Sunday when I gave a talk in the Cast Shelter at the Hill Cumorah and talked about the importance of General Conference and told everyone that I know I can count on the fact that a week from this Saturday all of us will be watching Conference as families for two days.

A few weeks ago some of our Elders that serve in Buffalo got a great idea of how to talk to people on the street about the gospel. They took sidewalk chalk and drew pictures of the Plan of Salvation on the sidewalks. Many people were attracted to it and asked questions. One woman loved it so much the elders were able to take her name and send a referral to the area she lived in just east of Buffalo and another Elder in our mission and his companion taught and baptized her. She loves the gospel. Who would have thought. Sidewalk chalk! Cool. The Elder who baptized her went home this morning. He has a twin bother serving in New Hampshire who was also released today. They will arrive home together tonight in St. George. Isn't that sweet. The church is true and miracles happen everyday.
