General Conference


WE were blessed to be able to go General Conference and see Jen's and Nick's new Condo. I thought I would share with all of you, pictures of their Condo. Here's a picture from the hall looking into their bedroom.







Here's their bedroom. The beautiful paint job was done with a base color and with gold metalic feather dusting. Truned out Beautiful! It's a old theather trick to add texture to sets.


The living room. Which is just nice, cozy, and very inviting.


They also have a gas fireplace. They also bought a new flat screen T.V.




Here's Jillian putting her shoes on in the living room.




The Dinning room






The kitchen. Nice size, much bigger than their last apt.


The hallway.




The second bedroom or music room. Painted in a warm soft blue.


It was so wonderful going to Conference and seeing Jen & Nick and also Jillian since she's been living with them. Conference is always a spiritual feast. It was so wonderful going all together. We left early Saturday morning. We missed the frist session, but luckly, we were recording at home so we won't miss it. We were able to get the second session on the radio-got to Jen's half way though, so we watch the remaning with them in their new Condo. It was so fun visiting with them. When Kenn & Nick went to priesthood meeting, Jen & I went to Walmart to buy food and Muchies for Sunday. While, Jillian went to a play with her friends. Once Nick & Kenn came back ,Jen and Nick took us out to dinner at the Spagetti Factory. It was great, what a treat! On Sunday it was raining like crazy. But we all brought our umbrella, so we stayed dry. It was neat when we entered the Conference Hall, they took our unbrella's and dryed them with a towel. We went on Sunday morning so we were able to be there for the "Spoken Word" as well. There is nothing like going to Conference, words can't express the strong spirit you feel when you walk into the Conference Center itself. Then when the Prophet walks in, everyone stands and you could hear a pin drop. It's incredible!!!!! If you want to srengthen your testimony, it's worth any expense or sacrifice you have to make! Everyone should go to Conference at least once. I've been blessed with the opportunity to go many times with our family. If you ever get a chance, take the opportunity, it is so worth it!

Four Generations


This is Four Generations. My Dad,myself,Jessica and Vallian. I didn't realized it until Jessica mention it "Wow"!!! Can you believe it?!




Here's a picture's of Jessica & Paxti with my Dad and Vallin. It was so wonderful seeing my Dad with them. It's been a long time since my Dad was able to see them. It was worth the driving the 6 hours to Salem from LaGrande.



Here's just a couple pictures of my Dad with Vallin. Vallin is just a cutie!!! It's so great to see my Dad with his great grandson. I just get all warm a fuzzy inside.It's so fun seeing Vallin checking out his great grandpa.
