I haven't blogged in a year and I have been told by some that I should blog again so I will give you little snipetts of our year so far. I started working full time at a Temp medical receptionist position last September and have had a second temp full time position after that one ended. I loved both of my jobs...first at the Cancer center and then at an Eye Doctor's office. Now I am looking for work again so that we can reach our goal of serving a mission in 2014. I know the job I'm seeking is out there somewhere so I just have to be diligent and patient.
On to the pictures and their descriptions...
Our son, Chris, graduated with honors from ITT tech in Sacramento this March. We are so proud of his accomplishments. He is now enrolled in the continuation of his education at Sacramento Institute of Art in pursuing his career as a Game Designer. He has tremendous skill and talent and really enjoys his classes.
In May we traveled to Utah for a weeks vacation and some more wonderful family events. Our son, Jeff, graduated from University of Utah Law school and took his Bar exam in July. We are waiting for the results and he is enjoying being home with his two boys as Mr. Mom without having to study while looking for a job with a law firm. We are very proud of him too. 
This is Emeric's Stepmom and our son, George's wife, Urasia, with her daughter Maycie and their daughter Brooklyn who is 2 years old. It was so much fun to have them there sharing in the family fun with us. We got to know them better this time. George was working in Arizona so he couldn't be there with us. 
This is our great grandson, Jordan. He is four and his mom, our granddaughter Beth, came up from Provo for the last weekend we were there to be at the reception for Jeff's graduation and his baby's blessing. 
These two cute Utah Mann boys are Carter age 3 (above) and his new little brother Jude, (below, born on December 16, 2010). They belong to David and Brook. We had such fun meeting sweet little Jude and playing with him and Carter. Being a grandparent is one of lifes nicest blessings. We wish we lived closer so we could see all of them more often. 
Next we see the two sons of Jeff and Rachelle, Lucas Mann (age 19 mos in this picture) and his new baby brother, Ethan James who was born on April 15, 2011. Ethan was just a couple of weeks old when we got there and it was so much fun to hold the newest Mann grandchild. He is a very good baby who sleeps really well. 
Then on that incredible weekend of wonderful, very special family events, we witnessed the baptism of our granddaughter, Emma. She is the middle child of John and Noelle's family of 5 children. She was so excited to be baptized and I had the priviledge of giving the talk on Baptism at the service. 
It was a wonderful vacation that we hated to see end. We look forward to being able to see these adorable, loving family members again in October when we go there again. We are grateful for modern technology that keeps up updated on all of them and helps us to see their growth and hear all the exciting things going on in their lives.
I will blog about our Summer next.
