The Wedding Party at the Farm

 

On the right side of the wedding benches - Emily and Kurt got them free from a Church getting rid of them.  Faye saving the front row for her family, Harold, Olivia and Sadie on the second row.
The left side of the wedding benches - with the Entry Arch and the New Barn in the background.  Such a beautiful blue sky, white cloud day!
The Stand and frame with flowers for the Ring Ceremony - Flowers were pretty...scenery terrific!
Looking at the Ring Ceremony venue from the back before many people came.  They mowed part of the field for this event, also mowed a place higher up on the hill for parking...and a path down to the benches.
Great old floral couch for some of the guests to sit on.  The tin tub has bottles of water in ice - it was kind of sunny and hot.
Beautiful flowers at the entrance of the Ring Ceremony place.
There were three port-a-potties with a cover over them - worked just great.  Even had a sink with running water to wash hands!
The new barn where the food was catered - table were set both inside and outside - such a lovely setting.
The entrance to the Ring Ceremony - flowers and decorations on the ground and on the Arch.

At the Denver Temple - June 5, 2021

 

Maddie and Dane after the sealing in the Denver Temple.  Ruby ran to her so cute.  Uncle John did a great job of officiating and all the workers were very helpful as usual.  I remember waiting outside the Salt Lake Temple when Becky and Ken were married - and when they came out I realized she wasn't going to share my bedroom anymore!!!  
Mr. and Mrs. Dane Romberg!  Happy and together for Time and all Eternity!
Heather and Emilee drove in from Falcon - and got in a traffic jam with an accident and construction!  They made it just fine!  So happy to have them with us at the Temple.  Eli stayed at the house to take care of the rest of the children.
Nice looking group of young men - James, Andrew Sheffield, Christian, Joel and Nate Pratt - Savanna's boy friend.   Emily's brother Rich came over and said: What a great looking group of missionaries in a few years!
Denver Temple Visitors Center - Becky took this picture of us - love it and the Savior.


Sue and John's

Saturday morning early we found a baby bunny in Sue and John's front yard.  Sadie and Olivia had fun watching it.
John said it is against city ordinance to remove them from your yard - he found bigger rabbits eating the flowers! 
Three Sisters!  We enjoy being together!  
 

Work Day June 4th!

 

Splitting wood - Joel, Christian and Nate - got some big muscles here!
Shonie and Apache - were very happy to play in the yard.
The Old green Ranger truck from Montana - Clark driving an assortment of cousins in the back!  
Lunch for the whole crew - Dane's family and Maddie's family were the best workers!  
More of the lunch time with the work crews.
Some very hard working people here!  Loved all the hustle and bustle - Emily is amazing and directed all the volunteers so well.  Kurt finished the tile in their main bathroom!! 
Dad playing with the dogs.
The old barn - we would take a truck load of stuff to store in the old barn.  The little girls made a girls part of the hayloft and decorated it. There was also a boys part - not decorated!!  Wonderful day with lots of work accomplished and lots of laughs!

Fairbanks and Maddie's Quilt

 

Tait helping us quilt!  He and Millie both had a turn pulling a thread through - isn't their new deck so nice?
Maddie and Dane's quilt - nice and comfy on cold Rexburg nights!
Reid and Millie playing in the back yard. 
Polly quilting - we tried to finish in the shade!  

Reid was trapped on the trampoline calling for 'help'!  the stairs had been knocked down. He got rescued!


Our yard in Provo

 

Harold works so hard to make our yard look good!  We found this small wheel barrow stored under Stan's deck in Bozeman and he let us bring it home!  Handsome gardener, right?

Our Columbine plants have had a happy spring - the purple especially - the yellow is taller.
The Bleeding Heart plant is also very happy this year - more than doubled in size!
Our front garden - we planted nasturtiums in honor of Grandma Poole.

Memorial Day 2021

 

Memorial Day and I'm including this picture of the Old Sandy First Ward Chapel.  Built in 1897 and used until the mid 70's.  I remember going to Primary after school using the stairs at the side - we left our snow boots in the foyer and there was a hole into the corner with pipes going down to the basement - sometimes our boots would fall down and someone had to go down and get them!

Provo City Cemetery - a big flower garden!

Mom and Dad's graves on Memorial Day, May 31st, 2021.  We took flowers to the Pleasant Grove Cemetery also for Harold's folks, but forgot to take a picture.
