My rock-star parents

I found this gem on my camera memory card this week.

Real Lookers.  Movers and Shakers.  Mom and Dad.

Those windshield-sized sunglasses are just to fool the paparazzi.

These two could totally have their own hit show.

After reading a paragraph of my dad's letter to my missionary son this week, I'm pondering what the name of their prime time thriller would be.  Check it out:

This is what life has come to.  Wake up, put the dog out, stub your toe on something, take your pills, feed the chickens, clean the freezer.  Then comes the excitement.  Take a nap, wipe the counter, let the dog in, get the mail, do a cross-word puzzle, take a nap, get the eggs, let the dog out, check the temperature, pay some bills, fill the car with gas, let the dog in, check the calendar, take off my pajamas and put on my jeans and shoes, start a fire, read a while, let the dog out, watch some tv, get my pj’s back on, go to bed.  Dream about cowboy cookies and carrot cake with raisins.

I know, right?!?

You men who hold this precious priesthood, bind it to your very souls. Be worthy of it at all times and in all circumstances.

May God bless you, my dear brethren of the priesthood, young and old. Fathers, set an example for your children. Boys, look to your fathers for wisdom and guidance and understanding.

How great are the promises of the Lord to those who walk in faith.

-Gordon B. Hinckley

Twenty-One Years Ago Today

A little treasure

Came across this card to the one and only Mr. Dub on the occasion of our first wedding anniversary.

HOO-boy!  A few more years have gone by.

TWENTY-ONE years of engineering a marriage that's working.

That twin of mine

She's fun to have around!

Look at the sparkle in her eyes.

She flew back to Ohio before I could even get used to having her here.

I love you so, Amy Jo!
