Fun Memorial Weekend!

Well my good friend from USU flew over from Utah friday night! We have had a really great time! On saturday we loaded us all up and went over to Devils Tower and hiked around it! Something we have never done...The kids LOVED it! And it was a perfect day. The sun was out and shining but not too hot! AND THE WIND WAS A GENTLE BREEZE! It was about 65 degrees! It was a prefectly beautiful day. Then on Memorial day we packed a cooler up, loaded us all into the truck and headed over to Mt. Rushmore. And along the way stopped at an old ghost town museum and at the flinstones theme park. Took some fun pics. Stopped at crazy horse, just as they did a blast on that work of art! That was neat! And then on to Mt. Rushmore. That was a great experience for us and the kids! And what a great day to do that! Then tonight we went to the new rec center pool in Gillette! The water was warm and FUN! Even Brandon did the water slide! But he got major road rash on the way down...needless to say, it has been a great past few days! And today my cousin Lexi became a momma! Something that she has wanted all her life! I know Aunt Betsy is so proud of her and watching over her tonight! Congrats to Lexi and Hector. Which leads me to my family...I am so thankful that I have a loving husband who is always so supportive of me. Who has the same belief system as I do. Who takes our commitment and covenants we made to each other very seriously. One of my friends is separating from her fiance...they dont believe the same as I do, but she is a good person and has 2 really sweet kids. And I am so sad for those 2 kids. They lost their family today. The only thing they have really known for the past 3 or 4 years, broke apart today and it makes me really sad for them. It makes me sad for the unknown future that they face. And makes me even more thankful for the family I have and the supportive and loving and caring husband I am blessed with. I wish her and those sweet little ones the best of luck. I pray someday she can find the happiness and love she is searching for...for her and her children.
Which also leads me to my Granny. She is in the hospital again. Granny dont give up! I wish you could see all that we see in you and have the desire to keep going on! I cant imagine all that you have gone through. You have lost 3 of your dear children. And your sweetheart. But I know that the trials you face here on earth are all for something far more wonderful than we could ever understand or comprehend. I know that our Heavenly Father knows your pain. I know He can hear you cry for your loss. I know that He will reward you for all you suffer in this life, because He loves you. And you will be ok Granny. I hope you get the will to keep going! Because we all love you and need you here!
Well it is about midnight. I really should get off to sleep. Good night for now!
