It was a great time...

Well, besides having Mother's Day yesterday, we also celebrated the leaving of Elder Jackson Fisher, who was called to the Tulsa Oklahoma Mission. His talk was great and the open house was so much fun. My sisters and I grew up with his sisters. We haven't seen them for years and many of us and them are married and have kids. It was wonderful to catch up on everything that is going on in each others lives. Here are some photos at the open house.
Here is the Fisher family, April, Mindy, Debbie, Jackson, Cami and Cicily. Their dad, President Fisher past away this last February. We miss him and we love you, Fisher family so much.

Here is Mindy and Emily. They were best friends with my sister, Lupe and they had another good friend Amy, they would always hang out together when they were younger.

Here is me and April. She and I were BFF's growing up. We got in trouble or caused a lot of it, when we were little. But they were the best times to remember.

Here is Cicily and my sister Keilyn. They are the silliest, but so much fun to laugh with.

Before we moved into our new home, my family was in the 25th ward. My dad's last calling was a primary teacher for the 11 year old kids. The last group of kids he taught were, Cami, Tessa (in the picture with my dad), Megan, Ben and Cody. He would always say that that was his most favorite calling, because the kids in his class were the most behaved and he knew nine times out of ten, his class would be the first to be dismissed from primary, he loved it.

Emily B. took this photo as a trial run, but Cicily was trying to pose for her modeling portfolio, she did a good job. April's giving a looking of "are you serious?."
Is it bad when you are reminded of how old you REALLY are? I think it depends, on how you look on the life you've lived. Mine? I am so happy, even when you see kid's 15 to 17 years of age, whom you've babysat when they were only 2 or 4. Above is a photo of me and a boy named Clinton, who I used to babysit, who is also 15 years old, speaking of the reminding of age. But oh man, I was blown away on how big these kids have become. But also grateful, that they are doing great. It's been a great reunion, besides a great Mother's Day.
