A few weeks ago I asked Megan how hard it would be to wangle an invitation to come to Arkansas for Mother's Day. She was gracious enough to invite us so Bill and I packed up and headed down to Cabot. We had a really good time being there, seeing how much the kids have grown and checking out flea markets. The pictures were taken at a beautiful place called The Old Mill. One of the highlights of the trip was going to church with the family and listening to Matt give a talk in Sacrament meeting. He did a great job - Way to go Matt! The lady who spoke before him gave a lot of his talk and it was fun to see him up there scribbling away revising and rethinking - as I said, he did a great job. While there Jessie and I challenged each other to a walking program. We bought pedometers and set a goal to walk to Salt Lake City, like the pioneers did. We will each keep track of our miles and when we reach it we are going to treat ourselves to something great. Don't know what yet - have a few years to decide. At least that's how long it will take me to walk that far. Check out our mileage keeper at the bottom of the blog. I am eagerly awaiting the stimulus check from the government so I can stimulate Circuit City's economy by purchasing a new camera so look for further posts with pictures from my new camera. Next week we are off to Colorado for Laura's graduation and to meet up with several of our kids and families. Should be a great weekend.
