Baby Kingson is Here!

Today is President's Day. Kingston Charles Ogden (K.C.) was born around 4:30 am this morning. He came a little earlier than expected. He weighted 7 lbs. 4 oz. Mike and Dianna are so excited to have him here and to have him be healthy. They were up all night so they were very tired. Wade doesn't say much he really doesn't know what to think. He was much more interested in the congratulations balloons we took to Dianna. We made a quick trip to Provo today to get our first look at our new grandson. This is our 12th grandchild counting the two boys in Japan (Keishi's). We have 10 boys and two girls. They are all so special. We are so proud of all of them. We are also so blessed that they are all healthy. Of course, we think they are the cutest and smartest grandchildren alive.
We send our congratulations to Mike, Dianna and Wade O. for their new baby.

Family is the Reason for the Season

King Christmas Party 2007

It was Uncle Bruce and Aunt Valene's turn to have the annual King Christmas Party. They had it in their new chapel in Axtel. It was great fun. Mike, Dianna and Wade met us there and Wade had a great time. He loved the megnet alphabet and cars that Santa gave him.

Valene pieced and quilted each family a wall hanging made from some of Grandpa King's shirts and ties. She also made us all a new updated Relatively Speaking Booklet. She is so amazing. The party was so successful. They spent lots of time and we appreciate their hard work. Grandma King sit on Santa's lap and he gave her a present from all of the family. She still has a difficult time doing this without Grandpa. We miss him so much.

Dad's Operation

The day after Thanksgiving, Dad went into the Sevier Valley Hospital for a hernea operation. He was very brave and had a speedy recovery. Mom was out of school for the holiday so she was his nurse for 4 days until he started to feel better. He has had no problems and he is feeling mich better.

November 2007--Happy Thanksgiving!

It is already February and here I am just blogging our Thanksgiving photos. We have had many things going on in our lives since November. We have lots of things to catch up on. We had a great time on Thanksgiving at Aunt Susan's house. She just remodeled her house and built a swimming pool in her back yard. She invited many friends and relatives to enjoy the day. She is such a thoughtful person. The food was delicious and the company was great.

The Pooper Scooper

Dad is our Pooper Scooper around here. Since we don't have Jon around anymore and since we got Dolly there are lots of little doggie"doo doos" all over the grass. Dad did take Jon's advise by putting cotton in his nose as he is scooping. It always helps to add some perfume on the cotton.
Dolly is looking on to see the damage she has created. She is fully house trained and when she needs to go she heads for the back yard. That makes us very happy that she exits through her doggie door to find a place to do her duty outside.
We take her on a walk every morning at 5:30 am
She keeps us moving. She also goes to the shed with dad and rides along as he delivers food.

Visiting Grandma Ogden

We visit Grandma Ogden everyday. She is so happy to see us come. She always gets up out of her chair and gives us a big hug. She is doing good. Aunt Beverly is a great caregiver and she spends a lot of time helping grandma. She is so good to her. She fixes her hair and gives her manicures. She takes her on walks. They go to visit Aunt Dona nearly everyday and two or three times a week, they visit Grandma's other friends. Beverly makes sure her clothes are clean and she fixes her good meals each day. We are so thankful this Thanksgiving for Aunt Beverly and her willingness to care for our wonderful grandmother. She is such a great lady and deserves the best care ever. We love her dearly. They are going to start coming to our ward on Sundays for sacrament meeting. Grandma does much better in the afternoon and our church starts at 1:00 pm.
