WHAT A GREAT MONTH MAY HAS BEEN CHURCH ON THE FIRST THEN DR. BIRCH ON THE 3RD. MY EYES ARE DOING WELL HOLDING THEIR OWN. BLESSING #ONE. I STILL PUT DROPS IN EVERY NIGHT. I HAD LUNCH WITH CLAY. OUR WARD DINNER WAS ON THE 4TH IN THE EVENING AND GOOD FOOD AND GOOD COMPANY TO VISIT AND RIDE WITH. HOW EVER I WAS INVITED TO GO TO REXBURG WITH ARLENE FOR PAT'S B/D LUNCH AT HER FAVORITE CHINESE PLACE. THAT WAS GOOD COMPANY AND THE FOOD GOOD.
MAY 6TH OUR EMILY LYNN MADE HER APPEARANCE INTO THE JENSEN FAMILY BACK IN CLEVELAND. I WONDER IF I'LL GET TO MEET HER BEFORE SHE'S GROWN UP!! SHE WAS A SIX POUNDER AND SO CUTE. HOW WAS I SO LUCKY TO GET NOTHING BUT BEAUTIFUL GREAT GRAND CHILDREN. KARA'S MOM WAS ABLE TO GO SPEND A WEEK ARE SO WITH THEM AND I KNOW SHE WAS A GOOD GRANDMA WITH LOTS OF LOVING HELP. I BET KARA HATED HAVING HER LEAVE ALL TOO SOON. RYAN WAS OUT OF SCHOOL FOR THE MOST PART OF MAY SO HE WAS A GREAT HELP WITH THE BOYS AND HELPING SPOIL MILY.
MOHER'S DAY WAS MAY 8TH AND I HOPE NEXT YEAR THE BISHOPRIC GET'S OTHERS TO DO THE TALKS. I GUESS IT IS A GOOD THING TO DO BUT I WAS SO SHAKY IN SIDE IT TOOK ME TILL WAY AFTER I GOT HOME FOR THE SHAKES TO LEAVE.
CJ AND ALEX AND ANDREW STAYED OVER NIGHT ON THE WAY TO LOGAN FOR THE BOY'S TESTING FOR THEIR SCHOOL SO THEY MISSED MOTHER'S DAY WITH LENELL. I ALWAYS ENJOY HAVING MY FAMILY MEMBERS COME BY AND STAY. HOW EVER I'M A VERY POOR HOSTESS WHEN IT COMES TO MEALS. LIVING ALONE DOES NOT MAKE MEAL TIME WELL PLANNED.
SHIRLEY HAS BEEN AT JANA'S HELPING WITH THE CHILDREN WHILE WAITING FOR THE BABY. MAY 14TH BROUGHT ANOTHER OF MY BLESSINGS BROOKLYN RAE FRIEL ARRIVED. SHIRLEY CALLED TO TELL ME THE EXCITING NEWS. ANOTHER 6 POUNDER AND LOW BLOOD SUGAR SO MOM AND BABY STAYED A BIT LONGER IN THE HOSPITAL. WHAT A BLESSING TO HAVE THE GRANDMA THERE TO CARE FOR PARKER AND MACIE. OH THE 14TH WAS A GOOD DAY FOR BOTH AVERY AND BROOKLYN TO BE BORN AS THAT IS MINE AND GRANDPA'S WEDDING ANNIVERSARY.
THE WARD MIA MAIDS VISITED ON THE 17TH IT HAS SOME THING TO DO WITH THEIR AWARDS I THINK. THEY ARE SUCH SWEET YOUNG WOMEN AND I ENJOYED FIVE PLUS TWO LEADERS.
18TH WAS LUNCH AND SCRABBLE WITH MELBA AND JEANETTE SINCE WE WERE NOT ABLE TO GO LAST WEDS. OF COURSE MELBA WON ALL THREE AND I CAME IN SECOND ONCE AND LAST TWICE. I ENJOY PLAYING BUT AM NOT GOOD AT SEEING GOOD PLACES TO PUT WORDS IF I'M LUCKY ENOUGH TO DRAW GOOD LETTERS.
6O'S LUNCH WAS THE 19TH ALWAYS A GOOD TIME AND LOTS OF FUN. 20TH WE GOT OUR VISITING TEACHING DONE.
21ST OUR TEMPLE SEALING DATE AND THE LAST OF MY THREE BLESSINGS ARRIVED AT AROUND 6 POUNDS. ARIANNA CAME TO LIVE WITH FOUR BROTHERS AND HER PARENTS. IS IT A BLESSING TO HAVE FOUR OLDER BROTHERS?? I HOPE THEY WILL LOVE AND PROTECT HER FROM THE EVILS OF THIS WORLD.
PENNY CALLED AND CAME ON FRI 27TH THE FOURTH ANNIVERSARY OF GRANDPA'S DEATH. IT HELPS HAVING HER COME AND HELP ME THROUGH THE DAY. SUSAN HAD INVITED US UP TO HER PLACE FOR DINNER ON SAT. EVENING. WHEN WE GOT THERE LYLE AND JOSH WAS THE ONLY ONES AROUND. THE REST HAD LEFT EARLY IN THE DAY TO GO TO DO GRAVES. WHEN THEY RETURNED THEY HAD BEEN TO 8 CEMETERY'S. IS IT ANY WONDER IT TOOK ALL DAY. THE MEAL WAS GOOD AND WE ENJOYED THE VISIT WITH FAMILY AND RENEWING SOME OLD FRIENDSHIPS.
CLAY AND KAREN HAD US OVER FOR SUNDAY DINNER AND WE CAME HOME TO GO TO STEVE AND THIRZA' S FOR THEIR GRANDSON OAKLEY'S FOURTH B/D. IT NEEDED TO BE CELEBRATED AS HE HAS BEEN FIGHTING CARCINOMA FOR A YEAR NOW. HE ALMOST LOOKS LIKE THE JEWS FROM WORLD WAR 2 CONCENTRATION CAMPS. HE HAS STARTED WALKING AGAIN WITH SOME HELP AND HIS ESOPHAGUS IS OPENING UP SLOWLY WITH THE STRETCHING THEY DO AT PRIMARY'S MEDICAL CENTER.
CLAY, PENNY AND I WENT TO THE BURTON AND WILFORD CEMETERY'S. WE DIDN'T STAY LONG DUE TO WIND AND RAIN. WE DID FIND REBA'S GRAVE AFTER A BIT OF DETECTIVE WORK. WE STOPPED OVER TO CHECK ON UNCLE GENE TO FIND HE'D DRIVEN SOMETHING UP TO CHESTER AND STACY WAS HURRYING TO CATCH UP WITH HIM SO OUR VISIT WAS SHORT. REBA'S HEAD STONE SHOULD BE THERE NEXT YEAR HE SAID.
WE CAME BACK PICKED KAREN AND LANIE UP AND HAD OUR MEXICAN MONDAY ON THE DAY BEFORE CLAY'S BIRTHDAY.
MAY 31ST HAPPY B/D CLAY AND JANA. I GUESS YOU ALL KNOW MAY IS LOADED WITH B/D'S NOW. BACK NEXT MONTH!!
