Grandparent's-To-Be


What's better than becoming a parent? Becoming a grandparent, of course! Grant and Mindy are having a girl. She will be named Josie Jeanne Swertfeger, now that is just perfect, for sure. Now we can get little girl things for her and try to imagine what she might look like. Only 5 more months to find out.

A Perfect Wedding


Last Friday my niece, Jenna got married to her long-time friend and now love, Stephen Johnson. They got married in the Portland Oregon Temple. They are the sweetest couple. When I look and see my nieces and nephews, grandchildren--well the feeling is indescribable. Especially knowing how many of them have a testimony of the gospel and of Jesus Christ. I am still grateful to the missionaries that taught me the gospel, and for sisters and a brother who also took the time so many years ago to listen to the missionaries and learn for themselves that the gospel is true and that Jesus Christ 's church is on the earth and He leads it and us. We have so much to share in this life and our family means everything to me.
