Happy Birthday to the best daughter I've ever had! I love you sweet dolly girl!

Utah State Fair

We had lots of fun at the fair. We saw many interesting things. A sculpture made of butter, sheep, horses, art galore, and lots and lots of people. Connor ate a fried pb&j, Tristan ate a fried snickers. We bought a keychain for Grandma's birthday made out of a grain of rice with the kids names written on it (she loved it by the way). We saw some a truck pull, but it was too loud and too stinky! We all rode on the big yellow slide, Anna twice! It was a hot day, but we had tons of fun! We live just a few blocks away from the fairgrounds so we just walked there. Boy were we tired when we got home.

The King of Siam

My Grandparents served a mission. They were Temple workers at the Laie Hawaii Temple. They also served in the Visitors Center there. They saw lots of different tourists while they were there. One tourist just happened to be the King of Siam. He wanted to see the inside of the Temple. My grandpa explained that only worthy members of the church got to go inside. He told the king what we do in temples. This king was very determined that no one could stop a King from doing what he wanted to do. My grandpa stopped him. Grandpa stopped the King of Siam. I know this isn't really the King of Siam, but when I think of the King of Siam, this is the only picture that comes to my mind.

oh what a joyous reunion!

On 9/9/09 my cute Grandpa passed away.

I'm not sad. He lived a good life. He was 92 years old. My Grandma died 2 years ago. I can imagine they are so happy to be back together. Chris wonders what good food Grandma'll have on hand for Grandpa. You could never visit without eating some kind of treat!

I'll miss you Grandpa Clay. I hope you keep watching over us. We love you!
