We were supposed to go to Farmington last weekend
for Brad Bloomfield's wedding and to see Mom and Dad, but
we couldn't go because the weather was bad. Also,
LaMar was offered a job with the company he has been
working for temporarially and they wanted him to work
on Saturday! SO RELIEVED!! Hope it will work out. We
did end up going to Show Low Saturday evening to help
our daughter LaNae who is having a hard time with her
pregnancy. I was able to pack her entire kitchen and the
little girls room. They are going to be moving back to the
valley next weekend and LaNae is supposed to be on complete
bed rest! We went to church with them on sunday and then
drove home. The snow was so beautiful, but NOTHING like
Bryan's snow in Nebraska!!






My granddaughter Kaylee and I. Check out the ice cycles!



Headed home - so tired!

Ok, LaMar, I know you miss your Kids and Grand Children, BUT,
this is getting a little odd, when you start playing with the
Chickens!!



We went to Craig and Janna Bloomfield's home for a family
dinner the night before Jamie was to give birth. Jamie's father
gave Jamie a beautiful Priesthood Blessing. The Doctors and
tests say that little Paige has major heart defects and that there
is a good chance she might not even survie. If she does she will
need major heart surgeries. Russ Bloomfield (Kieth's father) was
there and he helped with the blessing. There was such a special
spirit at that dinner. It was such a feeling of knowing that the Lord's
Will would be accepted either way. Here the kids stuffed pillows in
their clothes and were running into each other and having crazy fun!

Jamie looking at LaNae's awesome Cookbook she made
me for Christmas.


Wonderful Family support....





I took Kieth's family dinner a couple of nights before their
baby was born. After we ate Jamie got in their hot tub to
relax.

Little Paige Bloomfield was born! She IS A MODERN DAY
MIRACLE!!!! Jamie and Kieth are a WONDERFUL TEAM!
They both are amazing and have such strong faith! I am
so proud of them!



This trip to see Paige at St. Joseph Hospital really brought
back a flood of good and bad memories of our MIRACLE
20 years ago with Wesley!!!! I got really choked up with
emotion and tremendous feelings of EMPATHY for Jamie,
Keith and Paige! Wesley REALLY felt for little Paige!

Thought I'd take a picture of the garden before it's all gone.
We sure have enjoyed some wonderful meals with it.
The frost killed my cucumber plants, but we sure got some
good ones before. We have snap peas growing behind the
tomatoes and the tomatoes are loaded. To the right of the
tomatoes are red potatoes, they are ready to harvest now
and so we planted some more.

Here's LaMar's Road Island Red Producer Chickens and the
Chicken coop he built. It's been fun - Bryan's dog Zepplin
claimed 2 of them (he's a bird dog:)


We have our water supply next to the Chicken Coop. We
have 3 of these water containers that hold a couple of thousand
gallons.







Yea!!! Finally after a couple of years, I can now park my
car in the garage:)

Grandma Charlotte Davis showed me how to make nice
Christmas table runners and cute pillow cases for the kids.
Here I am working on them.

Jared and LaNae came for a few days before Christmas for
a nice visit. Jared's son Devin came from California and
stayed with us also. It was fun to meet him. He is exactly
like Jared! I bought these nerf guns for him for Christmas and
he and Jared loved having wars.


This picture should be at the END of our trip to Nebraska
to move Bryan. We flew home New Years Eve and got home
around 11:00 pm. got in bed by 12:30 and then got up at
5:45 to drive Sherry and KC Layton to the Airport. They
left for BYU Hawaii for 2 years or so. She is expecting her
1st baby (boy). It will be an ADVENTURE! They will be
VERY missed Just as Bryan and his family are, AND ALSO
Dustin and Andra who are in Seattle, Washington!! OHHH:(



Christmas morning heading out for Omaha, Nebraska to
move Bryan and Celinda's things. What a fun trip it was!
We hauled Bryan's tent trailer behind the truck and
made a soft bed in the back of the truck for his dog, Zepplin.
The dog did very well on the trip and would even jump up
into the truck when it was time to go.








A herd of Elk just outside of Springerville.

We stopped by LaNae's home on our way to wish them a
Merry Christmas!
Kaylee and I in front of LaNae's home.


We stopped at Dustin Shupe's Home in Eagar. This is the
newest SHUPE baby! Cute!




We drove to my Brother Sam's home in Albuquerque, NM.
When we got there he had a wonderful meal all prepared
for us! He just purchased a DARLING little home and I
was SOOO IMPRESSED with his decorating. It was so
nice and we LOVED our visit. In the morning he made us
a wonderful breakfast also, then took us to his Welding Shop
where he works.



Bryan, Kelsey, and Lindsey took us to the airport. On the
way there we stopped by Bass Pro Shop (their favorite store!)
Here is a river that was frozen over and covered with snow.


This is the Missouri River and yes, those are big sheets of
floating ice!





This is the reception area of Bryan's new office.
This his Bryan's new office!!! Nice!


This is where Bryan works at Intermountain Wood Products.





This picture does no justice - the drift on the left was so
deep.
Sadie got to ride in the truck from Kanas City to Omaha.
She thought she was pretty hot stuff driving the truck.

Very cold and LOTS of snow!! But we made it to
Bryan's new home safely - so THANKFUL for our
safety and that Bryan got a good job! We are so happy
that we could help our Kids!






This is looking down the street from Bryan's home. It's a really
nice looking neighborhood!
This is Bryan's new home. There is a wall of huge trees in the
back that are full of big squirrels. We were so busy the whole
time and I forgot to take a picture of his big back yard. It has
a really nice deck on the back.

Bryan getting to know his new neighbors.


Squirrels in the back yard.








CUTE Kelsey and Lindsey in Aunt LaNae's cute dress up
dresses and Grandma Donna's Fun jewlery she got them!

While we were working unloading, Kelsey and Linsey loved
sliding down the stairs on an old mattress!

Sadie making SURE Grandpa put the bunk beds together right!



Sadie and Bryan - OHHH - I'm going to miss these two!!!!
Bryan is such a good Dad - he sure loves his little girls!


Kelsey LOVES the Snuggie Aunt LaNae and Kaylee gave
her!!!! She called it her Princess Belle Cape!
