I am excited to see everyone again. It was hard to remember everyone's names 10 years ago, and my brain has really deleted a lot of names and details since then. It drives me crazy!

After high school I went to Weber State and got my MRS degree. My children were impressed for a long time, until they realized what that really was! I met Terry Adams there and we got married in 1970. Terry served in the Coast Guard during the Vietnam War. He is a Commercial Landscape Contractor. His company is Great Western Landscape, in Salt Lake City. We have moved 13 times--hoping that our present home will be our last! We have loved every place we lived and have met some wonderful people through the years. We now live 1/2 mile from my mother and dad's farm, so it is like coming home again.



We have 6 children and 14 adorable grandchildren, who love their Grandma! Hardly a week went by this summer that I didn't have someone here for a sleep-over. Our daughter Sherdene, married Tyler Surrage and they have 2 boys, and live in West Warren. She is a stay at home mom, and spends most of her time trying to keep up with her two "lively" boys!

After serving a mission in Rosario, Argentina, Ryan married Erika Dale, who he met when we lived in Santa Rosa, CA. They have 2 girls and 2 boys. He recently quit his job, sold their house and is going to medical school.

After serving a mission in Manchester, England, Dennis married Anita Hadley, from Taylor. He is a pilot for Sky West. They recently moved to West Richland, Washington, and have 2 girls and 2 boys.

After serving a mission in West Melbourne, Australia, Michael married Cami Thurber, from West Weber. They just moved to West Weber after living in Burley, Idaho for a couple of years. He is currently driving truck, but loves farming. They have 3 girls, with one due in January.

After serving a mission in Seattle, Washington, Craig married Evan Aschbrenner, from Hooper. They are both going to school at Utah State, with one girl, and another due in May.

Kevin--our baby, is on a mission in Mexico City. He is due home in November.

Terry and I have finally adjusted to being empty nesters, and have come to really enjoy it. It has been fun to pick up and take a few trips. We finally made it to Hawaii this year--after 38 years we thought it was about time! We keep busy with our church callings, keeping up the yard, and keeping up with all the birthdays, ball games and recitals! We have really been blessed with a wonderful family, and have had many great times together.
