Time to update ~#1 Fathers Day~My Dad

A year ago tomorrow my dad passed away. Even though it was a very sad day, I know he went to a happier place and is comfortable and enjoying being with his mom, dad, brother, and grandparents. My dad was a character and a half! He was fun and always had a hobby. Different ones all the time. If it was out there, he tried it. He rode motorcycles and took me on numerous day trips with him. (Mom was always nervous and made him call if he was going to be a minute late) He scuba dived and I was always there at the beach with him. ( I never did it with him, too afraid to do that, and was little). He golfed and I was his caddy. Loved doing that, they have these golf ball washers and I loved to used that little machine! The things that make a little girl happy?? He loved cars! And that is an understatement. You name the car, we probably owned it. He was an extreme neat freak. Always looked immaculate and was a very handsome man! I miss my dad and love him and wait to see him again one day!
Happy Fathers Day Dad!!

Our Nebraska trip

Last Thursday we went to Omaha to visit with Jeff's family and attend Heather's graduation. We were able to sneek in a church history tour on the way and we had so much fun! We were in 4 states in one day! Such beautiful country!! Not so much in the dead of winter. So here some pics of our trip before my camera died. Yes, I said died, and why not, I ask you? It was only charged 2 weeks before that, one would think it would stay charged a bit longer, but then, maybe, no possible not! Was not very happy with that, but whatcha gonna do??

Ok~ I was in kinda a hurry to get these posted, and didn't get to say all I intended, so.......Going to these places was so fabulous!! We felt the spirit there and it was just cool to be in sacred places that are now so real to me. After teaching in RS the lessons of these places, it was nice to actually see and be there. Enjoyed it so very much. Heather told me that next time we come out we should go to Navoo (sp??), and so we just may do that! She said it's about 6 hours drive from Omaha. They live by Winter Quarters and we have been there a few times. Need to go to their temple next time!

Our first stop was in Adam-Ondi-Ahman. this pic is outta order, shoulda been #3, but oh well. This is Jeff givin us the history lesson of Adam-Ondi-Ahman. It was enlightening!
