Wonderful Mother's Day

Just wanted to share a little of my wonderful mother's day. Paul, Mark, and I went up to Sandy in time to go to church with the Lymans. Having Mark come along for the whole day was a special treat; we had thought he would just come up for dinner. It was so fun to be together in church with Emily, Jared, and the children. Sam and Eden sang "I Often Go Walking" and "I Know a Name" with all the primary children. We loved it!

Then we went home for pizza and quiet time and visiting. Around dinner time John and Jean Lyman came and we all enjoyed a yummy ham dinner. After dinner Jean and I played Sorry with Sam, and we all visited. It was such a lovely day.

Adding to the joy were calls from Anna, Dave, and Mary. Wish we could all be together, but phone calls help a lot.

Everyone gave me great gifts. Here's a slide show/movie that the Dunns put together.

Finch Cousin Fest

My brother Richard Finch and his wife Judy were in town this week. We had such a good time. One great event was meeting up with a bunch of our Finch cousins for lunch. Here we all are together, with Aunt Kathryn.


Here is my uncle George's son Jim with his wife Evelyn. With them is George's daughter, Barbara Ann Beck. They are listening to Richard tell the story of his trip to Ã…fghanistan

Here is my Aunt Kathryn's daughter Amy, with Judy and Richard.

Here is Aunt Kathryn. Amy drove Kathryn all the way down from Bountiful. It was so good of her. Kathryn is my father's youngest sister, the last one living of the siblings.


Here's my sister Kay and our cousin Judy Woodhouse. Don't they look alike? Judy is George's daughter.
Here is our cousin Susan, Kathryn's other daughter. She came down from Midway, where she lives.
And here we all are around the table at Magleby's in Spanish Fork. All of George's children live in Spanish Fork.
