Family news

Guess this would be a good place to give some family updates. For those who don't know, Russ was put in their bishopric a few weeks ago. That should keep him busy for a while. His white shirts and ties are getting a work out.
Grandpa went to the doctor Monday. He is starting physical therapy for his hip. Hopefully that will help him out.
Lance and Molly now live in Lenanon, Oregon. They are managing an apartment complex and Lance is still looking for an engineering job.

I guess I have a couple of Mark stories to share. Several weeks ago, Mark surprised me on the phone. I hadn't talked to him for a while and he very clearly said, "Hi Grandma". I was sure I was Isaac and said "Hi Isaac". He said, "I'm not Isaac, I'm Markie". (No grandma points that day)  OOOPS.  So now when the boys come on, I always say "hi Nathan". So far I'm safe with that. The other day Mark is talking to me and he says "I'm Nathan". What a tease. It is fun to watch their little personalities.


Another time Mark got on the phone with me and said "Hi Ma-wa-win." (Sound it out). I guess we are pretty tight since I'm not even grandma, just Ma-wa-win. Since then he does say Grandma Mawawin. It's fun.
