Mom votes for a new picture....


So after reviewing the first blog posting, we decided (through some coaxing....) to include a cuter, moh bettah picture!!

Here's mom and dad in their beautiful garden!!

Dad: "I heartily concur that we have a monthly Family blog. Do you agree?"

Mom: "It sure would be fun for us to receive one each month so we can see how our grandkids (and great-grandkids) are growing!!"

Wow! We did it!


Today, Pioneer Day 2007, we (Elmo, Lois, Jill and Jean) (well, actually Jill and Jean) created our first blog!!!! (We're pretty amazed at ourselves!)
As you can see from Dad's picture, we have been raised to be extremely patriotic -- down to the covering of our boo-boo's with flag band-aids!
Mom and Dad had their annual 4th of July Celebration, inviting family and friends to join in honoring our country.
Jill continues to work at the Jordan River Temple, and has now moved to the Draper branch of Home Savings Bank! (Yeah -- less driving time, cheaper gas bills!)
Jean just returned from 3 weeks at the Nauvoo Pageant, and is not quite ready to go back to school (good thing, since she has a couple more weeks . . . ).
Hey -- here's a great idea -- can we make this a family blog? Everybody putting in their two cents' worth, so we can keep up on each other's lives? Whaddya think? (Does anybody know if we can even do that on this kind of a blog? Kristi?)
Looking forward to hearing from all of you!
Love,
Elmo, Lois, Jill and Jean
