The newest "Narnia" movie. It was so much fun to sit there
with a warm soft breeze, smelling flowers in the air, and
enjoying an outdoor movie at the park!

That is what St. George was called in the early days, because
it was warm there and the pioneers could grow cotton.

I always enjoy my days in St. George, one of my favorite
things to do is go shopping at the Desert Industries. It's
a big thrift store and they have many of them. Prices are
awesome too, I just bought the cutest entry table for only
$30.00 I'll show you a picture of it next post.

I went to a patriotic concert at the old tabernacle, it was
so good! This choir is called..Heritage Choir..when we get
fully moved there, I would love to sing with them.

O, America you're calling, I can hear you calling me;
You are calling me to be true to thee, True to thee...I will be.
O, America I hear you, From your prairies to the sea,
From your mountains grand, and all through this land,
You are beautiful to me.
And...O, America you're calling, I can hear you calling me;
You are calling me to be true to thee, True to thee...I will be.
O, America you're calling....I will ever answer thee.

Everyone coming out of the Tabernacle after

wonderful it was...chills and tears all the way through!

I have to always go to the temple when I am in St. George.
Just stepping onto the grounds brings instant peace.

Our little Sophia came for a visit, I got to
tend her for a bit, never long enough for me,
but we sure had fun!

What an imagination Caleb has...He and I had
so much fun telling each other stories! I told him
one about some trolls, after I got done he said; "that's
a good one grandma!" And then he would tell me one
kind of like mine but WAY longer! He glued it together
with..."then guess what happened?!" And then he would
go on and on! I loved every moment of his stories too.

Yes, life is good! And you certainly have plenty of little blessings to remind you of that. Your grand children are just beautiful! I love it that you're getting to spend some time with them.
It's been a year now since I've watched a movie outside on the lawn. That was amazing... and honouring your vet's, that makes me smile.

ohhhhh, such fun fun things in this post. When actually will be you moved into your new home??
St. George is so lovely....gets a little too HOT in the summer, but I could totally live there.
The music in the tabernacle must have been awesome, I totally think you need to be able to sing there once you are settled.
I WILL be trying that cake/cobbler. Perfect.
Claire's eyes kill me every time I see them !!!!!!!!!!!
I have to agree....life is good!!
How very, very blessed we are.
Love that D.I. , and oh boy can they pack the people in there!!
I was amazed at how many people shop there.
Looking forward to seeing your new find :)
Keep cool, and keep enjoying summer and time with your grands.
