Memorial Weekend 2011

 This weekend was very eventful for us. We started out on Thurs. night going to my Aunt Lori's viewing and her funeral on Friday. The service was very nice everyone involved did a wonderful job. I don't know how my cousins kept it together so well during their talks at the funeral. I would have been a blubbering idiot the whole time. My cousin Trista gave the life sketch and my other cousin Sean gave a talk. It was very, very good! I enjoyed seeing my cousins and family that I haven't seen for years. My thoughts and prayers are still with them at this time and will be for awhile. I can't imagine how hard that would be to lose your parents at such a young age. My heart goes out to them and shows how we should enjoy one another more cause time passes by so fast. Anyone of us could die at any moment from who knows what. It's a dangerous world out there!
   Anyway, Saturday was nice we got to go to the park and eat a picnic dinner with G-ma & G-pa Hale. It was so nice to be with family. I really enjoy those times being with family and enjoying one anothers company. Then we went back to G-ma K. house to spend the night and to go to church the next day. Church was interesting during the combined 5th Sunday lessons. A lot of the house that are located down by the river, just a few miles from my parents house are really being affected by the amount of water being let down from the dam, rain & snow pack this year. So they talked about what they have done to prepare these homes from flooding and what they are still planning to do in case of an total FLOOD!! They have been sandbagging for about two weeks and are still sandbagging every night this week to prevent homes from totally being wiped out. I am praying that there efforts will work and the water will let up so that these homes can be saved.
