Notes from Aunt Helen

Aunt Helen sent the following lovely update:

James will be coming home on January the 11th, 2010. He will be speaking in our ward on January 17th at 1 pm.

We wish you a wonderful New Year. We are excited about what 2010 will bring...a son home from a mission and our first grandchild. John and Hailey are expecting in February. They have just purchased a home in Clinton about 2 miles north of us. Hailey just graduated from Weber State. We are really proud of them.

Liz is finishing her Nurse Practitioner degree at BYU and plans to graduate in August with her Master's Degree.

Email Aunt Helen or me for the chapel address if you want to go to the speaking assignment.

Annette's Kids

Tira is now learning ballet. She is adorable! A few more at my blog.

Candace is Pregnant!

Sweet right?! I read it from her blog! She's prego!

Thanksgiving

This is the face of a happy woman. Why is she so happy, you might ask? Because she is married to this. . .

Paragon of manly masculinity, whose married team won the Turkey Bowl yesterday (I presume, though we left early.)

And whose son is pictured here, flying via Awesome Uncle Jesse.

. . . who also enabled my little stinky bear to fly.

Now I tag all y'all to post on your Turkey day!

*Note, these pictures are too small to print. If you need copies, get a CD from me. Sara.

Brycen had a boo-boo

Brycen skinned his knee and I took a picture with my phone, so I thought I'd post it up here. He was quite proud.

It's official

The (younger) Marble family are expecting a little boy. Congrats to John and Hailey!!

Golfers Corner

Hey everyone! My little sister, Monica was recently was in a golf tournament at the Utah Junior State Amateur Open and ended up in the Fairways magazine! I was just so proud and thought I would show her off for all of you to see! She won the Utah State Match Play Girls 13-14 Division winning 7 and 5 (whatever that means :)).

John & Hailey are Expecting!!

John & Hailey Marble are going to have a baby! All that I know so far is that it is healthy, and 2.5 inches long! :) I'm so excited!

Amy & Drew Are Engaged!

Drew proposed to me at Bridal Veil Falls on my 21st birthday (yesterday)! Of course I said yes! We're very happy and very excited as well. We have been dating for over 3 years. In church when I was younger, they had us write the qualities we wanted our future husbands to have. Well, Drew fits all those qualities and more! I am so happy to have the privilege of being his wife!! (Oh, and he picked the ring out all by himself!)

ConGRADulations

Susannah graduated today. She is the last of our Mohicans. Congrats baby sissy pooh!

her favorite oldest sister...

her favorite brother. . .

her favorite Mom and Dad . . .

We love you Banannahrama!

Update from Amy...

Hey everyone, this is the first post from Amy on the Bramall Bulletin. I just thought I would put up a few pictures of last week's events. I am doing well, and I've been doing lots more photography lately. I'm learning more about photos every day. :)

This is Jane, Nancy, and Tony after Nancy's Fashion Show at PHS on Friday night. She made this dress all by herself! Modern Shoe celebrated its 69th year of business on May 1st, 2009. Tony had a ribbon cutting in front of the store in the morning. There were TOO MANY customers that day! (From my point of view!) Grandma Grace won a basketball with the BYU Team's autographs. The mayor of Provo was there, LaVell Edwards, and Vern Law. It was quite the event.

Thanks

Thanks for all of the heartfelt concern and consolation about my lost quilt, dear Bramalls. (NOT! Not even an, "Oh Jenny, that must be so horrible for you. You poor thing. We're thinking of you in this time of sorrow.") Anyway, with no emotional support whatsoever, I found it in a dresser drawer, neatly folded with all of the other blankets I put away that day (shortly after the party in question) and then forgot about because I never use that dresser.

So what stunning revelations and exciting events have happened in all of your lives? I understand M & M are having one of each baby, catching up to my child count in one fell pregobirthnancy. Congrats!

If you still do not have access to post on the Bramall Bulletin, for heaven's sake, contact me!

Over and Out.

All Points Bulletin

Hey, if anyone has seen this quilt:

I haven't seen it since the cousin get-together. I am desperate to know what happened to it, so if you have clues let me know. Thanks!
