Whit

This last weekend I went to Utah to visit my family. I spent one night with Laurie and one night with Amy. When I got ready to leave to head to Amy's place I hugged the kiddos and told them to stand on the porch and wave to me. Only Whitney waved. After I left she went in and told Laurie, "Mom, I just love her so much I could kiss her right on the lips." I am still laughing hysterically about that one. Love you too sister.

Lucky

This post is specifically for Jayden, Whitney and Tyler. I know you guys REALLY wanted to see my new puppy dog. Here he is. This is Lucky. We got him at HART (Helping Animals Rescue Team) in Idaho Falls. He is a Pomeranian. When I went to get him they had named him Cookie. Well I was getting ready to sign the papers for him and a lady walked in and said, "Oh what a lucky dog." The girls who worked there told me no one wanted him and and that he would be headed to a rescue soon. I thought it was a great name so we renamed him Lucky. He always looks like he is smiling. Even Lisa (who totally hates dogs) said he was cute.

Hopefully you guys can come up soon and play with our new dog. Love you guys.

Benefit Dinner

This is the Brown family. This past week they lost their home in a fire. http://www.rexburgstandardjournal.com/news/fire-destroys-salem-home/article_21030618-5ced-11e0-8643-001cc4c03286.html

Many of you may have read about it and wondered how you can help. Here is your chance. We will be having a Dinner and Raffle on April 15th from 5-8pm to benefit the Brown family. The dinner will consist of a potato bar, rolls, and desserts. The potatoes have been donated, and we will be looking for donations for all the toppings, i.e. sour cream, chives, cheese, chili, stroganoff, broccoli cheese soup, bacon bits, cheese sauce, etc. We are also asking for items for the raffle. We will have a general raffle and maybe a silent auction for some of the larger items. Anything you can make or buy or nice things lying around, let me know. You can bring them to Bev Ball or call her and she will pick them up. Her number is 403-3083. Thank you in advance for all you can do. Also anyone who would like to donate any kind of dessert, let me know. Thanks.
