Hola Mia Familia!
I think we have talked to most family this week and weekend. Jenni called about some electrical problems with wiring while Dennis was rewiring the plug in our bedroom. Of course he discovered it was wired wrong in the first place.(not by him) I don't know where Danny was today. He was either running, camping or working on the basement. I heard Finn cry and I wanted to hold him while he will still let me.
Alex was here for a few days. He and Dennis drove the Toyota back east. That went well. Dennis flew home from Cleveland and Alex drove the rest of the way to Ithaca. They missed the tornados the day before and escaped from the crowds trying to leave Chicago after the NBA celebrations. I'm glad it went well. We enjoyed seeing Alex and visiting with him. He was anxious to get back to his work. He chose a hard course of study but seems to love it.
Travis is in Zakopane. I wondered if I spelled that right. He and Marta are hiking in the mountains. It sounds like it's beautiful there. He said they say a beautiful mountain valley with sheep grazing. I'm waiting for pictures. He has been taking a lot of weekend excursions. I think things are slower at work.
Tyler and Dawn are hanging on to this baby. I hope she can hold out for a few more weeks. It is very hard to not be there to help. I think she is at week 33 today. That is a miracle. The whole thing is a miracle and a trial. We pray that it will end well for Dawn and the baby. Laurel told me all about her birthday plans in July. She is excited about it. I hope it works out. I look so forward to meeting this sweet baby.
Tommy and Rilee are adjusting to a newborn. She is always asleep when I visit. But apparently not in the middle of the night. I told them they should do a Utube video of her sleeping. I'm sure it would be popular. She is beautiful. We should all visit at 3:00 in the morning and help out. They have been very blessed with a sweet daughter. But it is life-changing.
Dad and I were in charge of our ward picnic last Saturday night. It was a lot of fun. I'm glad it's over and very glad that it was a success. We hoped for thirty to forty people and had over seventy come. So fun.
I picked Dad up from the airport today. His flight was on time and not crowded. That's what you get when you take the 6:00 a.m. flight. But it was worth it.
The garden is growing. We have raspberries today. And for the whole week. What a celebration!
Missing all of you! Hopefully we will see you soon.
Love, Mom

FUNNY MOVIES
June 2, 2016
Due to the enormous pressure and challenges some of us are facing as we wait for babies to come, and pray that they don't come too early, what are the funniest, laugh-out-loud movies you've ever seen? I know it varies from person to person. Do you have a movie that always makes you laugh? Maybe even the young ones could suggest a title. I would say "Princess Bride." But there must be others. What are they? Let us know.
Just wondering.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TRAVIS!
June 1, 2016
June 3 is Travis' birthday. The way things are going, I wanted to post that ahead of time.
No babies yet. Tyler and Dawn have had a month of alarms and stress. Dawn and Lilah had strep and coughs. Dawn was in the hospital twice with bleeding. She is taking it very easy until the baby is delivered by caesarean section sometime around the end of July or first of August. We have worried a lot about her health and the baby's health the last few weeks.
Rilee is looking great and feeling great. She and I did some shopping at City Creek on Memorial Day. Somehow City Creek always feels like a party, especially on a holiday. I was introduced to Chik-fil-e lemon slushees. Oh they were good. Also Eva's French Bakery had morning rolls! No baby news yet. I'm betting on this coming Monday.
Dennis is at work in Clearfield today. I'm surprised he didn't take his Honda Pilot. We are enjoying that car.
Danny and Jenni are so close to finishing their basement rooms. They are waiting now for carpet.
Alex is done with tests and graduation activities. He had a fun week with Cornell graduation.
So Happy Birthday Travis! Hopefully we can talk to you soon.
Love, Mom
