Let's Have a Look-See

I have been working on scanning and posting pictures to Family Search this Summer. I had some items from cleaning out my parents house and a box of goodies that came from my Grandpa's house.  While working on this I found Baby boy Empey.   The name must have been indexed from a census. My grandma had a baby the year before she had my dad. When I asked about this, my mom said she thought he was still born. Well it was avalible for sealing to his parents. So off to the temple Wes and I went. I was proxy for my grandma when she was sealed to her parents and to my grandpa so it felt right to do this for her.  The next day at church we sang As Sisters in Zion. ' The errand of angles is given to women'.  It hit me like a rock. I have never meet my dad's mother, but she was grateful. The work is real. 

I love Summer. Besides the fact that I don't work in the Summer, I love the growing season.  Flowers make my heart happy. We had a peaceful 4th of July.  We had dinner with friends.  Wes and his. Buddies had big talk. Not sure I would believe anything that was said.  Sandy and her mom are excellent hostess. We made a quick run to California and now have my grandmother's China hutch.   It seemed like her dishes should go inside.  Happy Summer!

A week ago I had 4 of my 5 kids here. I had dinner for 14 a week ago.  I'm so very happy that they came.  We had lots of walks, sun and swimming.  Napping Cross Stitching  Ice Cream Playing Birds of Prey Parks Balanced Rock Craters of the Moon And family  Uncle Rich and Ashly  Callie and Mosby  Cousins There was lots of cooking, baking, dishes and I am still washing towels. Family is the best.
