Testing...does this blog still work?

I have been away for way too long! Here is evidence that we did have a summer...

 

Jessica graduated from high school back in May. It's so crazy that she has moved on. I feel old. She was so ready to get on with her big plans. She's now in Utah living with her grandparents. Recently, Jessica finished her course work and clinicals for her CNA (certified nursing assistant.) Now it's time for the State test. Jess works at an assisted living center and loves it. She will begin school at BYUI in January. I really miss her!

 Goodbye Jessica!

You can't really tell, but Jessica was laughing so that she wouldn't cry. I didn't take pictures of the real crying. We were all a mess when we left her. So hard!

 Just a bunch of Stoner grandkids. So fun to see everyone at our reunion in Park City, Utah.

We enjoyed an afternoon at the visitors center at temple square in SLC. These two posed for me in the space room. The heavens and the stars are their background.

Psycho Jessica!

There's an empty seat at our table...

I love these kids. They are mine. But why do boys seem to make goofy faces in pictures? I know they will look back at this picture one day and wonder what they were thinking.
