Hogle Zoo

Today we went to Hogle Zoo with Wendy and Lys' families. The kids had a ball and we enjoyed being with them and seeing the animals. We had been there in years so it was really fun. Attached are some photos.

Bear Lake Adventure

Today Floyd and I took a long drive to Bear Lake. We thought a raspberry shake sounded really good.
We ran into my cousin Norvin and his wife Angie after we got there. After visiting with them a few minutes we got our raspberry shake.
We saw signs and advertisements for helicopter riders. We thought for sure it would cost about $100 dollars for a ride. It turned out the rides were only $20 each, so guess what we did. As you can see from the attached photos we took a helicopter ride. It was fun, but short. I never thought I would ever be on a helicopter, but I'm glad we had the chance to do it.

Special Day

July 4th has always been a special day, but today our family had even more to celebrate and be thankful for. It was our oldest daughter Wendy's 40th birthday and the day our new adopted grand-daughters were blessed. Jenny and Leland have had a busy month. In honor of the completion of this busy month with new daughters Brecken and Alexis, Leland and his oldest daughter Jessica made a side walk chalk drawing. It was so great I just had to get a picture.

Temple Sealing

Last night we attended the LDS Temple Sealing of our two new granddaughters, Brecken and Alexis. The girls are now part of a forever family that loves them very much. The sealing ceremony was so sweet and very special. The girls are so little they may not remember it when they get older, but I know Jessica and Matthew will remember it forever. They were all dressed in white and we took lots of pictures. What a special day.

Adoption is Official

On June 21, 2010 about 10:20 a.m. the adoption of Brecken Faith Talbot and Alexis Hope Talbot was made final and leagal by the judge. We now have two more grandchildren. They are all so special. As grandparents we have been very blessed.
