Birthday Breakfast

Yesterday was my daughter's, Heidi, birthday. She turned 30. Wow! I remember when I turned 30 and had 4 little ones and it nearly drove my Uncle crazy! How time flies. Heidi's kids are so adorable. This morning I treated her to breakfast and little Haven (and baby Noelle) came as well. Haven is spittin image, action, maners of Heidi! She is sooo cute! Did I say she was cute?! We met at TJ's which is a mom & pop little restaurant here in Avondale that has been around forever. They only serve breakfast and lunch. We had a great breakfast and visit. Seems like life goes waaaayyyy too fast. We need to do this more often! I just love Heidi. She is a terrific mom! Happy Birthday Heidi!

School Board President

Seems like when one door closes...being released from Seminary at Christmas Break...a new one opens. Last night I was elected by my fellow board members to be the President of Littleton Elementary School District #65 School Board. I have enjoyed being "just" a board member and doing my part and being involved an active! Now, as President is a bit fearful. I guess as I learn the duties in time I will feel more comfortable with it. I have a great board and the ladies there are really knowledgeable and terrific! I truly enjoy working with them.

An "Hakuna Matata" DAY!

Saturday (yesterday) we picked up Haley and took her to see Disney's Broadway show of the "Lion King". This was her Christmas present. As the animals came on stage (people in extremely incredible costumes) she was so excited! I had opera glasses and she was glued with them. We sat in the first balcony so we had perfect view of all the animals and stage. The black looking necklaces around our necks were FM receivers...we heard every note, word, etc... clear as a bell!


Here we are after the show outside by the billboard.


Here is Grandpa and Haley afterwards. Everyone around them were waiting to take their turn with a photo by the billboard. You can see Curtis is holding my purse and coat so I could take the photo!

Afterwards we went to Applebee's for dinner. We had a lovely visit with Haley and reviewing the show and our experiences.



So you can see...we had a Hakuna Matata day!
