Memorial Day Fun in Brigham City

We Do Have a Wonderful Family!

We are planning to go up to Brigham City on Monday, May 25th. We are hoping to have as many family members as can come in attendance. We are meeting at the cemetery at 11:00 and visit our parents' grave and both sets of grandparents. Please come and join us...everyone! After we leave the cemetery, we'll go to the park and the men will go pick up lunch. We'll eat together and then play games, watch the little ones enjoy the playground, and visit. We hope to see all of you there! You know, someone might actually smile down on us all, look at her sweetheart and say, "Don't we have a wonderful family?"

Richs back in the USA

I don't think I have posted anything since we have moved back which means it has been a very long time. Here are some pictures of my family post Japan.

Ben decided to take advantage of his "free time" to experiment with his hair.



My baby turned 1 last month, the baby stage goes by so fast. This is the cake I made for him.



Here is the updated (but not for long) Beecher Bunch from around the holidays.

We really miss Japan but it has been so much fun to be around for family events! It is great to see everyone again.

One of My Favorites!!!

This has become one of my favorite pictures. We are all up in Brigham City on Memorial Day in 2008. We are on Mother's turf--the park right behind the street where she grew up. We have just been to the cemetery, put flowers on Daddy's grave, then on Beecher and Morris markers, also. As is a custom for that day, we are at the park enjoying one of the first spring days. We have wandered to the building behind us in the picture. It is Mother's grandfather's headstone business that is still family owned--we peeked in the windows since it was closed for the holidays. Oh, it made Grandma so happy to be there doing so much with so many of her family. We stopped long enough to take this picture. As I remember, someone set their jacket on the grass for Grandma to sit on because it was a little damp. We all gathered around her which makes her right in the middle. Some of the people are missing from this picture--mostly moms with babies and others who stayed on the other side of the park to keep one another company. After this picture was snapped, the kids--young and old--started rolling down the hill. When they started getting tired of doing this, they walked off to go join the others. Grandma was one of the last on the hill and she actually got down and tried to roll down it, just like she used to as a kid. Scott quickly took a picture of her and she didn't know it. (He posted it here with his remembrance of her within days of her death.) Aren't we all SO GLAD that we took the time to do as much as we did with her? I will always be grateful that I did! Of course, I could have done a lot more BUT I could have done a lot less so I take comfort in knowing that we had many good times like this. Thank you all for taking time to do many things that meant so much to her. Love, Karen
