Yesterday I got ambitious and got up at six thirty to pull weeds in the cool of the morning. I had sprayed some of them, but others kept growing. Joan and I had started the project about a week ago. When we return from Houston we will plant the grass.
I have been doing some work on our genealogy on the Vinsonhaler line. I have hundreds of names to process. The line starts two generations before QV's sister married a Vinsonhaler. I've been in contact with a Vinsonhaler in Kansas and he has been very helpful by sending me what he had. I also have the death certrificates of some of my cousins. I have a picture of QV's sister and her wedding date information. I am going to try to secure her wedding certificate and it just might tell me who her father is. I am also going to the 1840 census record, now that I know where they lived. All in all we are keeping busy.
The next time we will put pictures on here. Joan has to outline everything I do to get on here. When it comes to a computer I can understand why it took me sixty years to get as dumb as I am.
I wish you could see our roses and wild flowers in our back yard. The hollyhocks are in full bloom and I have one rose bush that is blooming for the second time, a deep red clusters of roses and the bush is about five feet wide and covered with clusters of roses.
This next week we will be going over to attend the twins blessing. Salt Lake put out a letter last week that was read in sacrament that there shouldn't be over six people in the circle. So we will see. I had received a letter like that while I was still a Bishop, and it is tough to try to limit the circle.
As the days go by we are getting older and Joan grows more beautiful with each passing day. It is hard to believe it has been sixty years since we were married, It seems like yesterday. We love all of you.
