Great Quote from a Great Lady!

"I don't want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully, tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with grass stains on my shoes from mowing Sister Schenk's lawn. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbor's children. I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone's garden. I want to be there with children's sticky kisses on my cheeks and tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived."-Marjorie Hinckley

Debbie! I was just thinking of you guys last week! We went and visited my friends/lukes cousins that live by you! I am glad you found my blog! I can't believe how time flies! I miss you family! My mom always says she misses you guys so much! K well Luke and I live right by westwood he fixes them here, but if you don't want to drive over than he does pick up x boxes from game zone on Gilbert and Guadalupe SW corner.

Jason wanted me to ask if you had an email address cuz he had some questions about working towards teaching online. He heard you knew about it.
