"Vanna" and Grandpa build a snowman

It has been awhile since I posted anything on the blog and thought I would do a little catch up with some of the pictures we have taken (primarily of the grandkids in the last few months)

On one of Savanna's Tuesdays with Grandpa and Grandma, we had a nice snowstorm and Savanna wanted to build a snowman. She rolled the snowball into a big part of the body and directed the rest of the creation. Nothing more enjoyable than spending quality time with my "Princess"

Two Cousins and Apples (Apple Dumpling Gang)

Landry and Chance enjoying an apple at Grandma and Grandpa's house. It was quite the fight to get them lined up against the wall and let me take their picture.

Mission President 90th birthday

On Friday evening Priscilla and I went to a 90th birthday celebration of my mission President, Lloyd Hicken. He had personally called me the during the week to make sure I was coming. I was really surprised and taken back that he would call me to make sure I was coming to his birthday celebration and missionary reunion. President Hicken served in Brazil as one of the first group of missionaries called to that country in the late 1930's. Others with him included James E. Faust & W.Grant Bangeter. I served as his assistant for 6 months and really gained a greater appreciation for what a great man he was and is. He currently serves as a sealer in the Bountiful Temple. The only downside of the reunion was to look around and see how old everyone looked and realize that I am one of them. I was asked a few times if I robbed the craddle in marrying Priscilla--she looked like she could have been the daughter of most of the women there.

GO FOR THE GOLD!

It's that time of year again- time for the Senior Olympics. My dad looks forward to it every year. Mostly, I think, because it is a great self-esteem boost. How couldn't be? Every year he gets carded- 'You can't be old enough to play!'. Other teams throw fits about the 'young player'. I'm sure he must be the only guy over 60 that still can claim he has a 6 pack, all of his hair, and practically no grey! (Sorry Dad, but if your own daughter can't brag about you, then who can?) Every year his team does really well, often taking the gold medal. These senior olympics are no joke, the players are very competitive. Several of them are former college and NBA players! So good luck Dad- we wish you the best!
By the way, I must mention my Dad entered the individual Senior Olympics in Provo and took the gold. He made 20 of 25 free-throws, and 6 of 6 3 pointers! Good job Dad!
