The Smiles Say it All

Yesterday my baby got married. He hates being called my baby. But he is, and I watched him turn into a husband, which is a very different Wesley than I have seen before. Wes was all smiles from the moment he brought Dana into the Sealing Room of the Los Angles Temple, to the unwraping of his car as they left the reception. It was a magical day. Our family was all, for the first time, in a sealing room together. Each time they asked for grandparents, there was a stab of pain, but I think they were also in attendance with us. We already love Dana's family, and the beautiful girl they raised that is putting a smile on Wesley's face.

Happy Birthday Vaughn (Von Ray)

I have enjoyed going through old pictures these past few months. So I wanted to say Happy Birthday Baby Brother. Hope your day is wonderful. You were such a happy kid. The pictures brought back fun memories. Love to you.

Happy 4th of July

One of my very favorite pictures. Our country needs our leaders, and ourselves on our knees during this very troubling time. A friend of mine Cal Greer wrote a song called "You stand tall when you kneel to pray" I found a lot of truth in that phrase.
On another note, grandma forgot her camera, but we had a fun 4th. We went to Holly and Sams for Dinner, and then that evening a lot of friends, and fireworks, and food. Hooray for Root Beer Floats! It was fun being the guest. Sams dad brought 2 sets of ear phones, which made the noise less for Nora and Sara, and they enjoyed the evening too. Thanks for inviting us!
