A New Life, And A Life Taken

Brian was home this past week but was unable to do any farming because of the constant rain. We did get our carpet stretched and cleaned and our furniture back in place. I'm still working on the little things like wiping the mud splatters off the blinds and stove and scrubbing the corners of the shower where we dumped the flood water. I need to replant about half of my garden, but it's still so muddy.

Friday, June 12, Kylie got another cousin--Jacie Lauren. That makes 16 grandchildren for the Bodilys.

We spent Sunday night at Bear Lake having our annual Moon Family vacation. My Grandma Fern rents a cabin or condos for the week and we have a great time at the beach and playing games at night. It has brought our family closer and we appreciate her investment in those family ties. Sadly, I left my camera home.

When I got home I received an e-mail with pictures of a memorial marker and plant that had been put up for Shaun by his good friends, near the spot where he died. Those who knew him well say that he is now happy and relieved to be free. Next month his family will bring his ashes to Utah to be scattered in the mountains at our family camping trip.
