Life is Better than Good


At the very beginning of 2012 I felt a little gloomy because, unlike 2011, I was starting off the year not knowing when anyone would be coming to visit NYC (and us of course) nor did I know when I (we) would be heading West to visit.  But the calendaring all started to come together, first, with the wonderful news that Taylor and Kate would visit the end of March and than with Lindsey and Adam announcing they were going to bring the girls and come in May. We were delighted.  When it occurred to me that both Dallin and Whitlie were going to be graduating in April, I found my first reason for justifying the expense of heading west. I booked my round trip ticket for the last two weeks of April and away I went.  Now I am able to look forward to other trips before the year’s end.  But I’ll tell about them in my next entry. Life is good, but when we are able to share it with those we love, life is better than good.

Whitlie graduated from BYU Law School.


Dallin graduated from UVU.

First we go IN and than we go OUT.  What can this be all about? A grandma mystery date.


Paying attention to directions to get where we want to go. A grandma mystery date.    


What's in your name? Another grandma mystery date.

I was able to have some nice visits with my sister, Janet, and my Mom.    
A great place to take grandchildren

The BUG Carousel is a big hit.

You can't leave without seeing the Dora the Explorer 3-D movie.

Adam really had the spirit of the moment.


Great weather for a picnic and playing at the play ground in Central Park
