Hi everybody!
Extra busy week, huh? Hard to believe that Independence Day is already over. We had a nice Ward/community flag raising ceremony and breakfast. Dad was over at the Church cooking pancakes at 6:30 that morning. His pancakes got raves, of course. Over 100 people came out.
After that, Dad went to work, and helped his officers at the zoo, otherwise known as Island Park. So many tourists this weekend! And of course, the hospital was extra busy this weekend as well. And it was my weekend to be on call. I got home this afternoon about 3:30, and Dad just walked in the door. He will be going to North Carolina on Thursday to represent NACO. He will be one of two guys on a board to present the program and answer questions. He'll get home the following Wednesday.
He spent most of Friday with Senator Crapo, at town meetings in Ashton and Island Park. He was explaining to the Senator and his staff, all about First Net, and the things he will be talking about in North Carolina. They knew nothing about it, and had lots of questions for him, and asked for some follow up as well.
We sure enjoyed having Ellen and Naomi here (off and on) for a couple of weeks. They're easy to have around, and so bright and fun. Hannah came and spent one night. It was her first sleep over. She did fine, and would have stayed longer, if her mom and I would have agreed.
Melanie is 5 years old now! She'll go to kindergarten this fall! It's fun to see all the kiddo's growing up so much.
I think all the grandparents are doing fine...nothing new. Grandma's garden is just lovely, as usual. And Granddad's grapes are putting out a lot this year! Looking forward to some beautiful juice and jelly.
Yesterday afternoon we had a visit from Tyler's boys, Teagan and Takoda, and their friend Riley Rumsey (Steve's boy). They were so cute, eating icecream sandwiches on the front porch, and following your Dad around the yard.
I think we'd all like to hear a report from the Denver group, on their theater trip on July 4th! And we'd love to hear from any of you who have news to share.
Love and miss you all. Looking forward to seeing many of you next month! I am so proud of each of you. I miss you, but I know that you are out in the world, making a difference, and raising your children in the gospel. That gives me confidence in your futures.
Love, Mom/Johanna/Nana
