Father's Day

Hi family,
Dean, Nessi, and I went to St. George for Father's Day weekend. It was great to be with Lois and Chelsea & family for a few days. The villa is relaxing and wonderful, and we got our batteries recharged. Gram has brand-new cabinets in her garage, and they will be perfect for storage once she gets moved down here permanently. I could just imagine Pop strutting around stroking them! He would love them! I hope all the daddy's in our big family had a good day...we love you and admire you for all the great things you do for us each and every day.
Love, Lisa

Tomorrow is Maly's graduation and I am very excited for her. I still have a hard time with the fact she is old enough to graduate though. Rylee gets his license next week, he is so proud to drive Pop's truck. It really means a lot to him, thanks Aaron. Emi just moved in to a very cute house with some girls. I met one and she was nice. I think she'll have a great time. I'm proud of her for all her accomplishments. I feel so lucky to have such great siblings!
Hope everyone is staying warm in this weather. I have my heater on in my office:)I can't believe this weather! Well at least I don't have to do yard work ;)

Graduation

I am very proud of my little sister for graduating high school! She is such a beautiful girl and now she is ready to conquer the world! I cannot believe she is 18...I remember her being a baby. I just love her so much more than words can express. I am getting teary eyed just thinking about how much she and my other siblings mean to me. I am very grateful for them and the opportunity to be their big sister.
Sorry if this blog makes anyone sick ;) I just feel very emotional about my little family today.

Summer!

Summer is Here!! ...but I hear its leaving again soon.

The 90+ degree weather will be dropping down to the mid-60s later this week. I even heard Las Vegas has a "severe heat warning" in effect... is there such a thing for Las Vegas ? I thought that was a given ?

We've been out doing yard work during these warm days and trying to get our yard presentable. We finally got our garden planted too - now just hoping we can keep everything alive. We're growing tomatoes, jalapeños, peppers, cilantro, onions... everything to make a great salsa! We'd be happy to share too!

I've started Summer Semester at Weber - although one of my classes is being held at SLCC on Redwood. Its funny how SLCC is a "satellite location" for Weber - at least a few rooms are anyway.

Thanks Britnee for the motivation to write a little something on here... I need to write more often (on this and my own blog). I sometimes find it hard to think of things to write, but then anything is better than nothing, huh! Hope you're all doing well.

Oh my goodness, it's finals week! I can't wait for my two week break until the summer classes start. I need it! I haven't started my book club book yet and we are meeting in a week, oops


I know a lot of you have your own blog's, but I'm sure Gram and her friends that visit this blog would love to read someone else's updates rather than just mine :)

I got 98.5% on my Micro-economics midterm! What a relief! I was worried I wouldn't pass, so getting an A was excellent news. Let's see, what other news...I'm still fighting a cold, not fun. Oh Miss Maly is going to her Senior Prom Saturday, can you believe it? I am so happy for her. I can't believe it's been nine years since mine...yikes!
Hope you all are doing well!

Hi Family!

It looks like I'm not the only one you hasn't been using this blog often enough. Thank goodness for Aunt Lisa, always holding us together. I really appreciate you Lis and everything you do for our family. I am getting ready for a midterm, and I am worried I'm not going to do so good. I was in Cancun last month at this time, and I wish I was there now! I have less than a year left of school. I cannot wait, after switching my major enough I finally am close to being done. Watch out world here comes Britnee with her BS in Business Administration minor in Human Resource!
Oh! My house is offically painted and updated! All the traces of gold are gone, thank goodness. Too bad I didn't know gold was going up in price, I could have used the money for tuition ;)

Love to all! I am going to try to add a comment (at least) a month.

Easter Already?

Seems very strange to be celebrating Easter in March. Especially since we are still in the "winter mode" around here most days..cold and unsettled. How can we have an Easter egg hunt in our coats and gloves? We'll try to make the best of it any way. At least there is a hint of spring in the air, and that brings us hope.
Love to all our family, however far we may be scattered. Happy Spring! Happy Easter! May the love of our Savior be felt in each of our lives.

Blogging

I am hoping that more of you will join in the fun of blogging. I am so amazed at technology, and don't understand most of it. Aaron has helped us join together in one place on the Passey Family Blog. I'm looking forward to hearing from you. Computers are a lifeline for me, and I am thankful for them.
Thanks, Aaron, for bringing us here.
I love you, oh first grandchild!!!!

2008 is the new year..

Dear Family,
The holidays were very nice, thanks to each of you.
I am looking forward to this new year with hope and
resolutions to make it one of my best.
I count my blessings one by one.
Family of children, grandchildren, and great-grand children.
My sisters, their families, and my extended family.
My comfortable homes, both in Bountiful and in St. George.
The Gospel, which centers my life and my goals.
The beauty of the earth.
The land of freedom, which comes at a very high price.
Those great people who make it possible for me to be free.
The neighbors and the children and my dear Ward friends.
So much more...........
I love my family and hope we are all looking forward and not looking back.
