Holley, my cute daughter in law, sent me some more Pumpkin Patch pictures so I just wanted to post them. One is of all the grand kids that went to the pumpkin patch and the other is the wagon full of grand kids that got a ride from Grandpa, Scott and Kevin. They all thought that was the best ride that day. Pretty cool way to get transport them around and it was free which was a real plus...

Fun at the Pumpkin Patch

We had so much fun at the pumpkin patch on Monday I just had to share with everyone what happen at the end. All the grandkid were having so much fun running through the pumpkin patch and riding in the wagon and playing together. When everyone was done the plan was to go over to Grandma's and Grandpa's to celebrate my birthday with cake and ice cream. We were putting all the pumpkins in the wagon to load them in the car trunk with Brooklyn in for the ride. Grandpa put the two pumpkins in the trunk and than picked up Brooklyn and told her she would have to ride in the trunk home so she could hold her pumpkin. She was all smiles and was ready to go even when Tim started to close the trunk up. She just sat there smiling up at her Grandpa and was ready for the ride home. Tim, of coarse, told her he was just kidding and than picked her up gave her a hug and she got in her car seat. She is such a cutie and Heather took these pictures so I wanted to share with everyone what happen.
Everyone has been so wonderful and I have enjoyed three days of dinners out, presents and enjoy my family. It isn't fun getting older, yet it sure is fun being with a wonderful family that loves me. Thanks to all Love Jeanne

I just added a new element to my blog and I just love it. Thanks Lisa (my cute niece in Las Vegas)for the amazing idea....It has been fun learning new things and being able to be more creative. This morning I was sewing a costume for Brooklyn (our three year old granddaughter) I've included a picture of her she is the one one the right with Kevin's Brooklyn on the left. She is going to be Tinkerbell this year and it has been fun to work on the costume with Heather, her mom. I'll take a picture when it is finished and let everyone see our creation.

I have decided to try and save money at the grocery store and start using coupons again like I did when I was a lot younger and had everyone living at home with us. Autumn is my inspiration and she has got me excited about trying it. The web site we joined is Coupon Sense and it makes it a lot easier than when I did it years ago. It gives you local store lists with their sales and coupons you can use than you go and shop. I am excited about saving some money and it is kind of fun to see how much you can save. Well got to go. Love Jeanne

Being Fed and Renewed



I love this picture of the Savior and feel that I truly sat at His feet and was fed by Him this weekend through His servants during General Conference. Tim and I finally got cable so we were able to enjoy General Conference from the comfort of our family room. It was wonderful to watch all day on Saturday and Sunday and listen to our wonderful church leaders. To know that we have a Heavenly Father that loves us enough to forgive us for our faults and help us to grow stronger through trials. Being grateful for our blessing and making sure we thank our Heavenly Father through our prayers was something I need to do better at. Not just reading the scriptures, but to ponder them and incorporate the lessons into our lives.
After one of the sessions they had a biography of Pres. Monson and it was amazing. From being a young bishop of a ward that had 85 widows to being a young mission president. His life was so interesting and the sacrifices he has given has truly made him the Prophet he is today.
President Monson is a Prophet of the Lord and I am so thankful for him and his counselors. I know the gospel is true, that Jesus Christ gave His life that I might have a life with my loving Heavenly Father if I will be obedient to the commandments. All must be willing to serve, even if it is hard at times the rewards are great. May those that are lost find their way back to the light to sit at His feet and feel of His love. May I be an example for others to fine their way back to the light. I say this in the name of Jesus Christ Amen Love Jeanne
