Grandma's gone high tech!

So Mom wanted to be able to receive all the family emails and feel a bit more connected to everyone so she purchased a laptop computer ( a macbook) and we got her connected to the internet (wireless!).

Here is her new email address: thelmamarie@comcast.net

Email her often so she can practice using it and get the hang of it!

The Young Victoria outing

Amy got a group of us together to go see The Young Victoria in SLC the day after Christmas. We all give it 2 enthusiastic thumbs up! We all want to study up on Queen Victoria and Prince Albert now. So far, this is the only theater that this movie is playing at. We all thought it was worth the trip and the company was pretty fun, too!

In the group are: Auntie Arlene, Mom, Karen, Kellie, Laurie, Amy

Merry Christmas!

We had a fun Thomas Party on Chrstmas evening at Karen and Paul's church. We had a yummy assortment of Soups and Salads. Then we spent some time catching up with one another. We missed Jeff and Joe who were working.:(

Thanksgiving celebration- Thomas style!

I am finally getting around to uploading pictures from the Thomas family Thanksgiving get together. I know there were much better photos taken than these. If you email them to me, I will upload them!

Family Temple Trip

We had a wonderful time doing sealings at the Draper temple this evening. We do this every year near Dad's birthday as a way to honor him. Thanks to Laurie and Karen, we had a ton of family names. Wish you all could have been there! Happy birthday Dad! We love you and we are thinking of you! We miss you!
