Olsen Reunion

Bud, Jill, Jeff, Jan, Jerry & Diana
It was great to see my brothers and sisters for a few days.  This was the first time we were together in five years.  The last time was just before Bruce & I left for China. We enjoyed the beautiful fall scenery around our home and good meals.  We talked about mom & dad and growing up and shared stories. It is nice to have brothers and sisters that love one another. We are planning a reunion next year in Oregon on the coast on July 19-21.  We need to make this an annual event.  Jan, Diana and I get together at least once a year for our sisters' lunch when Diana flies out to see Lance and his family.   We attended Lance's ward so Diana could watch her grandson pass the sacrament.  Bud got up and gave a wonderful testimony about the power of a loving family and good parents.

Watching grandkids

I am watching the Weight grandkids, Lena, Amy & Esther for two weeks while Christina & Ryan are in London & Germnay.  Lots of work and lots of fun.
