Grandpa Dan and Grandma Jeanine. It was and still is hard that grandpa died. When I was growing up, my dad worked in Vegas, so grandpa took care of my stuff. He went to my ballgames, took me to Rodeos, and hunting. He loved being outdoors, he was never cold, and he would always help anyway he could. McKenzie was with them everyday. They took such good care of Kenz, she was potty trained by 14 months. Pa would read to her everyday, do the abc's, and take her to 7-11 for slurpees. He was such a smart, generous, loving man. He is still so deeply missed. Gram misses Pa so very much.
I still can't believe they were married for 50 years, when they got married, Gram was only 14... She is living in Heber, and I go over everyday to see if she needs anything. I owe both of them so much for all they did for me, and much more for all they did for McKenzie.

My parents, they are such a cute couple.


A Picture of my Great-Grandparents. On the left my Grandpa Norm's Parents. On the right my Grandma Zenda's Parents. When I was little, I loved to go see them. I would go with gram to see grandma Tilly. She was a character. She had amazing roses, all colors. She loved Wendover and Christmas. Grandpa Ted would peel apples and core them for me. He was so tall, but so gentle with me. I remember going to see grandpa Lawerence in the rest home, and he would make blue cows out of play dough for me. Grandma Leila let me do anything I wanted, even eat frozen orange juice.



These are my grandparents. Norm and Zenda Edwards, the most caring people I will ever know. They will do anything for you, just to make sure you're OK. Pa has a bad heart and it is much easier for him to breathe in St. George. They have a home in St. George and one in Heber, in the winter down to St. George and in the summer they are in Heber. My gram is so beautiful, she has such a big heart, and I want to look just like her in my 70's.
I just want everyone to know where I come from, and I hope I can carry on the legacy of my grandparents and my Parents....

OK so the Broncos's fired the coach! Finally! Maybe next year we can win games that we lost. We were three games ahead of the Charger's and we lost all three. I love the Broncos! Me and my mom went to Denver when I was a Senior in High School. I fell in love with them and I still am a Broncos Fan! GO BRONCOS!!!




Just after Christmas we went to see the Temple Lights. Austin, Kenz's friend went along. Kenz was so nervous about Austin going with us. No teasing! I want to make Austin feel comfortable with our family. We really like Austin, he treats Kenz with respect, and that is what Tom and I want. Max wouldn't leave Austin alone, he kept saying "Kenz and Austin" sitting in a tree, k-i-s-i-n-g first comes love, then comes marriag, then comes a baby to make it three. So Austin gave Kenz a heart engraved on saying "Kenz and Austin sitting in a tree."
