Finally Did Another One!

Since my first, and last post, a lot has occurred. But before I go into detail, Grandpa and I want to welcome back Alexa to the good ol' US of A. She faithfully served her "mission" in Africa with the Peace Corp for 2 years. We are so proud of her! A little bird told me she met a great young man there. We hope to hear more about him!

We celebrated the annual Corn Festival by going to the parade and passing out water bottles advertising Timmy's run for La Habra City Council. Timmy even rode in the parade. The corn was yummy, as it has been since I first moved to the area in 1961. We bid good-bye to Jeff and Lauren, which was sad for us all. We sure miss our little girls. We celebrated birthdays with Elizabeth and Victoria -- what beautiful great-granddaughters.

It was off to Utah again for Gordon's 55th reunion of Jordan High. He was part of the committee and had all sorts of duties to perform. He was a cheer leader, and actually had his original megaphone to lead the yell and school song. We also went up to Logan to see Chris and Rachel at their new digs. Our little Prius actually held Chris's stuff, our stuff, and a bicycle for Chris---all inside the car. We had a great visit with the Harper's in Orem, and then on to St. George to spend the night with the Renoufs in their beautiful new home--we even had our own wing! The end of a beautiful summer.
