GRANDKIDS ARE A GIFT FROM GOD!

Yes, we moved from Wellington to West Jordan, July 1st. It has been an interesting and rewarding time. We have been more involved with family because we live within 15 min. of five of our kids and 8 of our grandkids. Angie and her family are still in New Mexico.

This is a photo of where we live in West Jordan. We don't spend a lot of time here.

This year we actually had a garden. Kyle and Cindy had this spot at the back of the patio and they let us put the garden in there. We harvested zucchini, summer squash, cucumbers, and some tomatoes. As you see here, the snow fell on it but it didn't affect it much- until the next storm.

We tended lots of grandkids this summer. THAT is why we moved to Salt Lake. We've had lots of adventures with family members. Here are some.Remy and Tate at the Living Planet Aquarium


Cody's Birthday ( and we went to Tanner's, too).


Tyler's birthday

Hogle Zoo- some real zoo critters


Bradshaw gorillas

Angie and the kids came up to visit for the October Bradshaw thanksgiving.
Here is a photo of the two sets of twins.


Aaron and Isaac showing off their matching coats and their cute smiles.


As anyone can tell, these are really handsome little boys- not just because the shirts say so.

Their grandma Bradshaw is busy being Isaac's personal tailor. The normal size clothes just don't fit. He needs longer-legged newborns, so grandma has started sewing him pants.



This is just an interesting scene we took in Orem one afternoon. The moon has just risen over Mt. Timpanogas- just as the sunset produced some beautiful colors on the mountain.

All in all, this has been a big, but a good change for us. Next big change- a mission?
