A visit from the best mother-in-law in the whole world!

My mother-in-law was up this weekend to Cannon Beach. She stopped here on her way home to go to church with us and spend a little bit of time with us after church. The boys love it when Grandma comes. There are usually treats involved! This time it was tomatoes for me to can :) and cupcakes! We sent Grandma home with a loaf of Pumpkin Bread and part of a red cabbage our neighbor gave us.

Michael reading to Grandma before she leaves. It was pretty sunny in the window so the picture didn't turn out super well.

I think this was in 2004. It was Nephi's first trip to the beach. The boys were all so little! My have they grown.

Meet the Parents...Russell and Candace
It all started for us when Russell left for Cape Town South Africa on a mission. Candace felt inspired to write him - so she did! We wrote for 3 1/2 years. Candace came home from her mission to the Texas Houston East Mission and we dated for 5 months. We married in July 1994 and have been happy ever after!
