It is now January 2014. I am not making a New Year's Resolution but trying to meet a goal in updating my blog.  To start off with, the happenings at the top of my list in 2013, were two new grandsons being born, and on the very same day!  Declan James was born in Anchorage, Alaska to Garett and Larissa and Kolter Brett was born in Nampa, Idaho to Wrangler and Jesica  on June 18th.  I will attach pictures.

Top and right is Declan and left and lower is Kolter.  Kolter does live closer so we see and enjoy him more often and then have to enjoy Declan over the skype or facebook.



We were able to go to family reunions and visit family and we were able to go to Alaska and see Declan in person and help with his blessing in July.  So that was our big trip for 2013.  We did travel to see some of Alaska, such as the Alayeska ski resort

and the Whittier tunnel, glacier and fishing town.  We had a picnic on the coast and hiked in the mountains and saw Mt McKinley from a distance.  We just enjoyed seeing where they live and shop and go to church and work and where the kids would go to school and shared in birthday parties etc.

We continue to farm, and do church work.  Brett is the Bishop, but I was released from being the Stake Primary President.  I have now been called to be the Gospel Doctrine teacher and a V.T. supervisor.  I am also working part-time as a home health aide.

I don't want to take too long tonight, so now I want to jump ahead to 2014 and the addition to our family of a new granddaughter!!  Addowyn V was born to Trevor and Dana on Jan. 6.  We and her family are so thrilled to add a little girl to the Williams line up. So now on into 2014!!!
