We were looking through photos last night from my children's past. It was fun to see pictures taken in places that we have lived and with every photo, there is a fond memory. Photos with extended family in Utah. Photos in Omaha. Photos in St. Louis/St.Peters. Every picture has a story. Every story has a different memory for each person involved. How precious are the memories: baby blessings, birthdays, baptisms, scout courts of honor, stampedes, Church history, USA History, Canadian history, English history, graduations, funerals, moves, tears, stitches, chicken pox. I have decided that our computer needs a better scanner so that I can scan and upload pictures on to CDs for the children. I am sure that in a few years, technology will be so much better,that the children will think, "Wow. A CD of pictures, that is so old tech--what was Mom thinking?" I love looking at my children's photos. They have had some really fun things happen in their lives.

Here are a few photos from our lives. Yes, the photo of the boy on the beach is Howard. We always laugh at the dark spot on the front of the swimsuit. Beach babe....
