Eye to eye contact...

Here she is...

beautiful Lyla Ryan Marshall.

Straight from heaven.

So sweet, so innocent, so wonderful.

Definitely love at first sight.

I watched this game with my favorite Redskins fan!

General Relief Society Meeting

This year, I enjoyed the General Relief Society Meeting, via satellite, in the comfort of Loren and Sonya's home. It was a great meeting. Sisters Beck, Allred, and Thompson are remarkable women, and President Uchtdorf is so inspired and inspiring! I was uplifted. Because of modern technology, I can view the meeting again and again. I can, and I will check it out here.

Leaving Las Vegas

I'm on my way to Texas, to meet the newest member of the Marshall family.

She's scheduled to arrive this Tuesday.

~30 September 2008~

I wonder what she is doing today,

as she is getting ready to leave her heavenly home,

and live with us here on earth?

This is not a joke . . .

It's always fun at grandma's house! This is not even HALF of the stuff that Bradley wants to "mess" with when he spends the night. He loves his tech-toys.

Sam and I are heroes,

or so they say.

(Sam is not in this photo. He was still giving. He donated whole blood.

That takes a little longer, and you can give twice as much. Way to go Sam.)

Here I am after making my donation. Looks like I could use a pint myself. I've donated blood many times. Years ago, I was a regular participate in "ladies night out". This was before it was the in vogue thing to do. Ladies from the ward would donated blood, and afterwards, we would go out to dinner. Fun times.

Marriage between man and woman is essential to His eternal plan.
