Noel G. Browns funeral.


Today, Dad and I met Wendy at her place and picked her up.
Lance met us over at the church also.
It was a nice funeral.
I had to get up and go out during the last musical number.



I like this qote from President Hinckley on back of program.

This morning I had the 4 hour shift alone at the Temple.

By the time I got home I was in lots of pain.
I took a cool bath and then  I got a "charley horse" in my foot.
I couldn't get Dad to hear me for awhile.
I finally got out of tub and the water was cold by then.
Hope I caan sleep tonight.

FATHER'S DAT CELEBRATION A DAY EARLY.


Today we had lunch at our home for Dad for Father's Day Tomorrow.
I can't say enought about the beautiful day that we had.
It was a ideal temputure and NO Wind.  Unbelievable.
Lance and Wendy's families were here.



Shanell and Derek's families couldn't make it because Shanell
and Marcie were on call.  We missed you and also
Kendra and her family.
It was our first meal outside this year and it was so nice.
Thank you for coming.
Sunday's are much to hard to get everyone together.
They had an Airplane show in Rexburg, and we saw some
of them also in the sky.


My rose by the shed is starting to bloom.  It is so velvety and soft.
HAPPY LITTLE INSECTS.
THEY DANCE WHEN THEY ARE IN THE SUNSHINE.
Becky got them at the $ tree store in IF.



I bought some little shelfs and Becky organized Dad's pills.
Now maybe I can keep track of them.


Becky was helping Dad build another shelf in back of the lean-two addition on the shed.
