Football & Fall

I love this time of year when the air turns crisp,the grass smells different, and the leaves change color. It means football season and I love it. The best part has been watching my sons play football for Pleasant Grove High School-Vikings. Win or Lose, I appreciate their hard work, dedication to their team, and the effort they put into the sport. I appreciate the time their coaches put into making them men and besides that I love to yell at the games!. Way to go McKay #66-- You're a stud.

Getting Out with the "Football" Now the "Missionary" Moms.

 
Lena Frampton is chauffeurring as we arrive at "Flour Girls & Dough Boys." By the way this place had some yummy stuff to eat. Save room for the desserts!!!
 
I've learned to look at things sideways and from the backseat!
 
Everyone's been so patient with me! I'm moving a little slower, but it feels SOOO good to get out!
 
These ladies are amazing friends! Our football playing sons brought us together during their highschool years and now all our sons are serving missions. From L to R: Sue Brady, Lena Frampton, Shelly Weber, Sally Geran, Barb Clarine, Jechelle Secretan, Suzanne Keetch(me)
