LIBERTY STAKE RELIEF SOCIETY

I have met some very special people in my life. People that I've grown to respect and love, because of, living by them, working with them, or rubbing shoulders with them. But most important are the friends that I have been blessed to serve with in the many callings I've received over the past 37 years. Three of those wonderful people came to South Jordan and we met at Archibald's restaurant at Gardner Village. They are, Kathy Froerer, Pat Songer, and Dianne Shaw. When we lived in Liberty, I was ask to serve with these gals in the Stake Relief Society. Only the Lord knows of the importance that this was to my life at that time. Only he knew of the desperate need I had to stretch in order to heal. No, really, I didn't even know, only he knew. This came about a year after my accident that left me with pretty bad head trauma. I didn't realize it then but I do now. Without the Lord putting me in situation's that I have to really rise to, I wouldn't be able to say that "I feel now that I survived that head trauma. It's taken 8 years!

My response at seeing my friends surprised me, I was very emotional, I cried. I only see them once a year and every time I do, something very very important is filled in my heart. I am so grateful that they instigate our reunion. They are all so amazing to me.

Our time together was spent catching up, and looking for Thanksgiving and Christmas Treasures while strolling through Gardner Village in all it's Holiday decor.

Thank you Kathy, Dianne, and Pat for touching my life.

Mr Jacks and Wyatt Henry






It's the boys night at grandpas. We haven't had them together for so long. Their both so handsome and strong. Blond hair, blue eyes. Jacks is 7, a quiet boy, very smart, very focused, isn't very flexible. He loves playing Lego Batman on Dallin's X Box game. Wyatt is a talker, very athletic, very determined, and ruff. He loves playing on Dallin's machines and he loves coming to grandpas.

The favorite place to go for breakfast is Burger King. The one with the big play gym. Cheese croissants, french toast stix with syrup, and milk. Em mm Em mm Good!

They went over to the park next to our house. It has a bike trail and you can ride around and around it for hours. There is one corner that you have to slow down and carefully turn around or you'll crash flat out.

There is a beautiful place to ride around the lake in Day Break. Grandpa took our bikes an us. We had a great ride.

Then, the bubble blowning contest, rats, grandma won again. She is still the queen bubble blower.
