Humphries Family History

Hello!,    Another beautiful day in Egin...hoping the cold weather holds off a little longer. Fall is perfect, in my book.     Just got back from visiting Grandma and Grandpa. Aunt Reneta was there with her little Granddaughter, Cheyenne. Grandma had decided to quit driving, and they were going to sell her car; it has only about 50K miles on it. Anyhow, they decided to give it to Reneta, instead of selling it.  She seldom can come visit, because she doesn't have a reliable vehicle. But now she'll be able to go where she needs to go. Jared brought her up, and stayed for a while,  then she and the baby took her new car home.  I'm so pleased that they thought of doing that...Grandma says it was Grandpa who thought of it.    Joseph was 10 yesterday; I got to talk with him on the phone for a little while last night; he's sounding so grown up.  Grandpa got to be there for part of the celebrations. And Shelby will be 8 next Saturday!...

No, it's not that I don't know, it's that I don't know how to do, or where to go, to do what they're talking about. I had hoped that I would be able to learn something to be able to help Gran...but I think it'll take some one on one teaching.    I just got back from visiting with Grandma and Grandpa; they both seem good.  The young men had brought the Sacrament to Grandpa today, and he was so pleased. There was quite a group of them: Connor Johnson and Curtis Cardon were the priests, and then some deacons, Jens Christensen, Darrin Winegar (brand new deacon today), Britton Rigby, and another...

Hi all,    It's Fall here!  Fall in Egin is one of my favorite things...the smell, the temperatures, the colors, the Fall clothes. Had to scrape ice off my car window this morning, on my way to Ward Council.    It's been a nice weekend. Yesterday I was able to get the house cleaned, took Gran shopping, and finished preparing my lesson for today. My lesson went really well too!  It was on guarding our health, both physical and spiritual. The ladies participated and it went about at as well as any lesson I remember giving.    Dad has been really busy this weekend, with all the tourists in the county for Labor Day weekend.  6000 people on the dunes!  yes, that's 3 zeros!  He had to have 4 deputies just at the dunes...not to mention the rest of the county. There was a big party, even a band out there.    Gran had invited Joseph's and Mary's family, and uncle Jim, out for dinner and games this evening. They get out of Churc...
