When You Came to California.......THREE TIMES!

Sheila you have been out to California to visit us three times! 5 years ago you came to see our first born Calvin right after his birth! It was a great visit. You stayed for about 1 week.

Christi loved having you around to share in the experience of being a new mother. You got to meet our dog Ammon for the first time.

You came to California again to be part of Ilene's wedding in 2008.

Morgan and Ilene were sealed in the Sacramento,

California Temple on October 10th, 2008.

The last time you came out was at the end of September when we had our third, our first girl Cosette! You were here for two weeks and we all had tons of fun.

You got to visit with Christi and Ilene. You went to see Ilene's work place and Morgan and Ilene's apartment.

You were there the day Cosette was born.

You played alot with Calvin and Oliver (pictured). They loved playing pirates with you in the back yard.

To Our Family

Hey Everyone

This blog is dedicated to Sheila. After hearing story after story about your lives I started to think that it would be a really great idea to document this history. Then it occurred to me that it might be an even better idea, to document it for Mom.

If any of you have seen 50 First dates, you remember that the main character only remembered each individual day. She had no short term memory. At the end of the show, to win her over Adam Sandler created a video for Drew Barrymore to see which basically updated her on where she was in life.

As Sheila loses her memories it is going to be harder for her to remember who she is and how many people are out there who love her.

My idea was that we could teach her about herself whenever she forgets.

I have also put links of her family's blogs on the side so that she can frequent them and see her children and her Grandchildren.

WHENEVER

you remember a fond memory of Mom, or you feel like posting a note to her or a picture, please do it here. Post pictures of your families or from your baby books.

I am hoping that one day we will be able to print it out for us, and we will all have a history of our Mother and Grandmother Sheila.

I hope you all find this to be a good idea. I absolutely love this family and I absolutely love Sheila.

Happy Birthday Mom!

Hey pretty lady- Thanks for all you have done for us. For all the mother-sacrifices you made. We all love you-- and pray you get what you wish for! Have a great day!
