Getting back to real life

has been a bit of a struggle.  Getting a migraine and then a cold plus jet lag is never a good start.

However I did get some of my kitchen cupboards cleaned and organized in the middle of the night when I couldn't sleep.  That's a plus.....

And I got a graduation gift in the mail from Utah State:

This is what 9 semesters of tuition gets you---a luggage tag...well, and the diploma!!

And while I haven't seen the rest of my family in almost a month, luckily I have enjoyed some pictures that they have shared.

Happy Mother's Day from Jena...

Gary took this picture of the Provo Temple after a visit with Ben.  He knows how much I love to see this temple!  It made me smile when he sent it to me in Japan.  I think he missed me a little while I was gone.  :)

Scarlett hanging out with her Uncle Travis--she gets some fun rides on his wheelchair, too, but hanging out with him is perfect.

LIFE IS SO GOOD

even with a cold and homework and weeds!

Thanks for being a part of our lives and for loving us!!

Have a great Memorial Day weekend.
