Flowers

I love flowers! I realize this more as I grow older. Some people need jewelry and others clothes. I need flowers. I actually planted some in my earthbox to make sure they will grow well. I find great joy in seeing the flowers change in my yard. I Love flowers! So here are the flowers in my yard right now.

I'm trying to grow two, but I think they need to be on the opposite side of the house. They're pretty fried! It's our second attempt at them. They say third times a charm, so we'll try again!!!; July 1, 2008 at 12:25 PM

Family Status

Bruce has moved to a new area, Denton, TX. He loves that it is a college town. Spencer has been dropped off for his one semester college experience at BYU - Provo. He is excited to go to classes and learn to feed himself. He seems to be taking care of himself just fine, Within an hour of being back in his apartment he had his router set up and was getting internet on his computer. The older girls have started school and are doing well. It was exhausting, but the Show choir and Ballroom performance on the first day went well for the senior. The Senior and Sophmore have survived 2 days so far. The 7th grader did very well adjusting to lockers and middle school. She didn't get lost, and it only took 10 tries at the end of the day to get her locker open! We walked the 5th grader to her class the first day and she thinks her teacher is fantastic! Still waiting for Kindergarten assignments so we will know who Holly's teacher is. She starts a week after everyone else. I am sort of in mourning after sending off the college boy. He also has finished both of his interviews and submitted his paperwork to be called on a mission . Excited to see where he will be called!
