Grandma Lilly

A year ago today my grandma Klepinger passed away. I can't believe its been a year. We all gathered at my grandpa's house yesterday, it was nice to be around aunts and uncles and cousins. The klep family has grown by 4 in the past year, my twins, brooks brolin and tims conner. We all think she was up there making deals to get our babies down to us. Brook and myself both got pregnant just a few weeks after she had passed, coincidence...probably not:) Grandma was feisty and pretty much got what she wanted...thats where I got that from;)
She is missed but she is doing a great work on the other side and watching over all of us!
We Love You Grandma!!!

Halloween and Church Dances


I feel bad for Tyler and Whitney that church dances in high school here in AZ were not fun (so I was told). Our church Dances in CA were the place to be. They were every other weekend(2 stakes) and soo much fun!! Every year for Halloween we had a huge dance and haunted house party at one of the McKeon's houses. I HATE haunted house things-even if they are not scary to others, I just hate being scared. One year they had a part where there was a small ditch where someone was hiding by and jumped out at me and I tripped and fell in the ditch. I was so scared I jumped right back out and ran. My friends were laughing so hard, so too not be such a wimp I laughed too. HAHA, not really. To this day I have never been to a haunted house. And it has been YEARS since I've seen a scary movie. Thats a whole other story that ends with sleeping with the lights on for days(maybe weeks;)
I was a farmer (see pic-and side note-why were overalls ever in!!!) and ash was all about the 1920's. Fun times with Ash!!xoxo
I really have tons of great memories from those fun dances!
