Tail-end of Holidays

My brother Scott's gang showed up last night after spending a week at their family's cabin in Sundance. The evening snow fall prompted THIS sort of creativity in the back yard around 11 p.m. (Everyone is still enjoying holiday hours.)



This morning, Scott shoveled my treacherous driveway and right out to the road. Besides being a Mormon Bishop and a Doctor of Family Therapy, he's a darn good bro!

His kids (five and a tag-a-long friend) are just delightful, as well as the canine family members, Frodo and Sundancer. I'm also terribly fond of my sister-in-law, on the right, who hiked the canyon with me for at least two years during the 1980s. Canyon buddies are Forever Friends.


Off they go to California!

What great posts! We had so much fun there with YOU and the Harris bunch. We also enjoyed having Scott's family stop in Mesquite at our place for a quick visit. You have always been an incredible hostess!! Thank you for creating such a wonderful environment for all of us to enjoy!

You have been a busy girl! Looks like a great time was had by all.
We had the "off-season" Christmas with only our 20-year son with us. The two married kids were with in-laws and Clay spent Christmas in Baghdad. ugh.

Love you,
Jeri

Your brothers DO tend to get themselves some darn nice digs. The kids look so happy. And what a bro, to be shovelin' your driveway for you. Which Jill Lewis is that posting here, by the way? Not MY Jill Lewis?

It's great to have good family. And to have them close.
