On Saturday July 21, we went to the Palmyra Pageant. Gary, Vanessa, Tassia and I went. It was alot of fun to visit all the special places again. We went to the printing press first. Then over to the Temple and then to the Joesph Smith home and grove. The weather was beautiful. Gary couldn't go to everything, so the 3 of us went and did it. Gary patiently waited for us. We even climbed the hill. We ran into a few people from back home here. Like we usually do. But the drive home never gets any easier. It is a long drive at the end of a long day. Gary drove all the way and I think I even slept a little. Oh ya, I'm a grandma. Well grandma to a puppy anyways. Jacquie and Ryan bought a mini pincher and they have named him Max. He is really cute.

Visit to Jacquie and Ryan's

On July 12th I flew down to visit with Jacquie and Ryan. It was a wonderful trip. We laid by the pool and did alot of shopping. We also visited Independence and Liberty Jail. It was alot of fun. The weather was great. Most days it was in the 90's. I saw the best thunderstorm while I was there. The lightening was spectacular. Jacquie and Ryan spoiled me and it was great to spend alot of one on one with Jacquie. Everyone back home did fine without me. We are heading back down to see them at the end of August. We are taking Vanessa down so she can ride with Jacquie back to school.

Today our son-in-law is having a birthday. Because they live in Kansas City we are not able to be with him. But we sure hope Ryan and Jacquie are having a great time celebrating his birthday. Today we spent the day cleaning the car. The whole family helped out. It was a lot of fun. Josh did the inside of the car (with some help from the rest of us) and then Vanessa, Gary and myself (with a little help from Josh) cleaned the outside. It was a beautiful day to be outside. I love the summer weather. Well I just thought I would share our team building experience with everyone.

Well life seems to be the same here at the Musson's home. Everyone is busy working, looking for work or writing exams. The weather has been great. Josh graduated from seminary last Friday night. I can't believe his 4 years of purgatory are all over. I'm so proud of my children for sticking out those 4 years and learning more about our Saviour. Vanessa just returned from Phoenix from seeing the friend that is a boy (he is not the boyfriend for at least 2 years while he is on his misson). We had the parents down last weekend for Father's Day. It was nice to have them all together again. Even Scott Musson showed up. We had a turkey dinner. It was lovely. I missed Gary's help with getting things done, but everyone else chipped in. He did help with the stuffing in the morning. We are waiting to hear when Jessica is having the twins. I think it is suppose to be real soon. Well that is all the news for now.

Today has been a beautiful day here in Brantford. I have been busy doing laundry, gardening, cutting the lawn, cleaning the kitchen. Just another day in the life of a wife/mother. Gary is getting along okay. Josh is feeling much better. So we are getting back to a littel bit of a normal routine around here. Back to work and school tomorrow.
