What are Frank and Jeannette up to these days? I thought we were supposed to be retired by now! Jana told me to do this. We wanted to vote for Mitt Romney and other political ramblings!Frank and Jeannettehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11345919993661100228noreply@blogger.comBlogger601100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1922025102708640451.post-11960007690383146572011-03-02T13:53:00.005-07:002011-03-02T14:16:46.791-07:00

Tera finally snagged the man of her dreams! Thanks Brendan for making her so happy and being a great Dad to Tenlee. They were married on Feb 18th. It was a beautiful wedding with Tenlee leading the way, carrying the rings, and stopping to smile at the photographer every few feet. Then came Tera with Frank and Terry both walking her down. It was very important to Terry to have this honor. After

Even though it was a short month, it was packed full of events.First came Super Bowl Sunday on the 6th. Yes, we did go to Church! Priorities, right? We didn't have much of crowd for Super Bowl but we loved the company we did have. Theresa, Rich and Maci joined us for the afternoon but left shortly after the game started to go his mom's house for a Family Home Evening. Tera, Brendan (the only

My New Years resolution is to update my blog at least once a month. So far, I'm doing terrible. It's already Febuary! But, this post is going to be for January 2011 and I WILL post again this month!We started our New Year off with Jana and Dave and our new little granddaughter, Ashtyn Sophie. She is named after my grandma, Sophie Neisess. Ashtyn was born Dec 2 and we didn't get to see her until

Okay, I have waited long enough... THERESA IS GOING TO HAVE A BABY! What more can I say? We are so excited. She has been pretty sick, but oh well, that's what most of us go through. Now, she's finding quite an appetite. Due date is June 13th. She has a wonderful husband, a beautiful new home, and now a little one on the way. Life is good.

Saturday was spent helping Theresa and Rich move into their new home. They bought a very nice place just across the road from their place, on the East side of the road this time!Everyone was sure a big help to her. In the morning we had Bryan and Ali and Ryder. Ryder who was told he had to put down his toys and carry things in! Tera and Tenlee drove up, Valene, Zak and Karlee came over, and

Last night we went down to the Holt Arena in Poky to watch Zak's team in the State HS playoff's. It's the first time in 27 years that his school has made it to State! We got there just as the school buses arrived carrying the band and students. Boy, were they all excited and everyone was sporting some sort of red/black, even me! The band actually played very well throughout the night and had the

On Sunday after Church, Frank always goes in and changes his clothes immediately. The suit and everything goes on the bed. Usually in a heap... He must think he has miracle clothes because by the time he goes into to bed at night the clothes are gone and hanging in the closet. This past Sunday I went in and hung up the miracle suit but somehow his tie ended up on the floor by his side of the bed.

The Gardners' (Theresa and Rich) have proven they can be real gardeners. They have grown a very nice garden this year had cabbage coming out of their ears! The cabbage was coming up so thick they transplanted a bunch of plants, thinking they probably wouldn't grow - but they did!On Monday night Theresa drove down and brought about 15 heads of cabbage with her. We proceeded to grind it up and make

Jana and I have a challenge for each other. It started with her telling me that she read an idea for scrapbooking where you take one picture a day and make a scrapbook book page around it. I told her we need to do that but do a blog page... So, here I go...My picture was actually from Saturday. Theresa shared a great recipe for making homemade soup to can so I decided that I would do it. I

Well, I was fortunate enough to make it one more year! At my age, you just don't know for sure! I had a very nice birthday on Sunday. 59 if you are wondering... My kids have all had to ask. Val and Layne invited us all up to their home for a very nice dinner. Everyone made it except Jana and Dave, living in Texas and always missing out - Brandi, I guess she was traveling - and Caleb who was at

Saturday night was a busy one around our house. We had four of the grandkids! Karlee came down to stay for the weekend and of course Tenlee had to be with Karlee. Tiffany needed a babysitter for Byler while she was working because Caleb was gone to the Guard and Byan and Ali dropped off Ryder for a few hours. I rented the Hannah Montana movie - cute show! It was so fun to watch with the girls.

Fall time brings probably the most beautiful time of year. I love all of the warm earthy colors as the leaves change.Fall reminds me... Of combining and trying to get the harvest finished before it gets cold. Of driving across the Saskatchewan River near Elk Point and the breathtaking beauty of the trees as the leaves turn orange and red. Of going up hunting in the mountains, setting up the tents

This past week we had food safety classes in Santa Maria California. This is the area that we lived in off and on for about five years when I was younger. We originally moved to Oceano in my 5th grade year. We lived just a block from the beach, which I loved. We moved to Nevada and then back again in my 6th grade year, again to Oceano for awhile. We then moved to Lompoc for my 7th, 8th, 9th

Well, we have three weeks under our belts (which we can see now) with our healthy new lifestyle. We are actually doing quite well. Frank has lost over 15 pounds and I'm pushing 10! We have been pretty darn faithful in eating better. No more "fat" snacks after dinner. Smaller portions without all of the butter, sour cream, etc is really helping. We haven't had the hunger and cravings so I

A very traumatic event has happened to Tera this week. Tenlee started kindergarten! It sounds like she was pretty excited because she woke up at 4:30 am to get ready to go. When I talked to her before they left for school she described everything she was wearing and told me how "poofy" and curly her hair was. On Monday they just went for an hour and a parent was supposed to go with them. This

Okay - update on the "diet"... Frank has lost 6 pounds and I have lost 3! And, we are losing inches as well. Feel very good at this point. Caleb had his appendix out on Sunday! He had a horrible stomach ache that morning and finally went into to the emergency room and they did emergency surgery. He went home on Monday and thinks he will start his new job at Jiffy Lube tomorrow! Kids - they

It hasn't been bad. We have been eating very healthy and haven't really missed all of the butter, sour cream, bread, etc. Frank has actually enjoyed our healthy meals and it's paying off. He stepped on the scales this morning and has lost 4 pounds! I haven't weighted yet... will wait until Monday. Hopefully I do as well. I sliced a zucchini and a yellow squash in 1/4 inch slices and laid

Frank and I have decided that it's time for us to get serious about getting into shape. Well, at least to lose some of our poundage! Our goal for right now is to lose 30 pounds each. By writing this goal down and broadcasting it, we are obligated to do it. I remember when I used to say something like, "I think I will make cinnamon rolls today" and then I HAD to do it because Frank and the kids

A couple of Saturdays ago I was looking for a cooking pot and Frank and I were passing a thrift shop and I suggested that we stop in and see if they had what I wanted. We browsed around for a few minutes and the owner of the shop suggested another shop that might have the item. So, we went over there and again no luck so we went to WalMart and bought a new one. I have never really shopped at

Anyway, when I called Frank to tell him I was on my way he told me that he had dinner already started!Okay, this is the first time in over 42 years of marriage that this has happened! He actually made us some tinfoil dinners and put them on the BBQ

At the end of June we traveled to Alberta to attend the wedding of Don and Paulette Mudryk. Frank worked for Don on his water well drilling rig when we lived up there. At the time he was married to Sharon, who was a good friend of mine. After their divorce, Don and Paulette stopped to see visit us a few years ago and even though we were sad about Don and Sharon we really liked Paulette. We

Theresa said I better write my little story down............Friday morning, June 12, it was raining like crazy when I stopped at Walker Two to pick up the paperwork. One of my daily duties. After a weekend of rain there were huge puddles of water all over. When I came out of the building it was raining and I was trying to run to my car so I wouldn't get too wet.

Jana flew home for a week on May 30 until June 6th. We sure packed in a lot of fun stuff while she was here... along with a lot of food! We went down on Friday night and spent the night in SLC to pick her up on Saturday. On Sunday she went to church with us and came in our primary class and made friends with our kids. Everyone came over for Sunday dinner. It was such a nice day! Bryler was

It's been a year as of May 13th since Karla passed away. It's hard to believe that she's been gone that long. They set her new headstone this week so that it would be there for Memorial Day. Nyla and Cindi did a nice job of choosing one that suited her so well.It's also been 20 years since my mom, Marie, died on June 2nd. It seems like yesterday... We still miss her so much.

I guess I need to catch up on a few things! April just flew by so quickly for me. We had a very nice Easter Sunday with all of the kids except Jana and Dave and Brandi with us. Tiffany and the baby were even here! Zak had surgery on his knees a few days before but he still wanted to be here (probably 'cause he likes my cooking).

March 16th was Dad's birthday. It made me think about how grateful I am to have him in my life. I was nine years old when he came into my life. Growing up was a little rocky at times because the gospel wasn't in our home. I joined the Church when I was 12 years old and he always supported me in my activities. After I got married Dad quit his bad habits (he claims I was the cause!) and

Frank and I received a new calling a couple of weeks ago. We are now teaching the 6 & 7 year olds in Primary! It's only been a couple of years since I was in the Primary but it's been about 15 years since Frank had a Primary calling. About 17 years ago we had a joint calling for the 8 year olds when Tera was that age. A couple of years after that Frank and Bryan were called to be nursery

I discovered a new website - eHow.com! We all know how to do all kinds of things and now you can write articles about it and have them published on this website. It's been kind of fun to do. I have done seven articles on my first two days. Of course most of the articles were ones that I have already written for the workshops that I do for rodeo and junior miss pageants.I guess you can also make a

This past week I have come to really appreciate my grandsons, not just love them.Caleb is in South Carolina in basic training. We had a letter from him last week and it sounds like he is adapting pretty well. Of course not having any candy or pop is really, really hard on the kid or should I say man? It's early morning hours and hard days but just what every young man needs! One thing he said was

Last week a friend and co-worker told me that my name was included in a letter to the editor. It was a list of women that "make a difference" or something like that. At first I just laughed but then had a couple of phone calls telling me about it as well. Okay, by then I was smart enough to be flattered by the letter and the attention!But it got me thinking about all of the remarkable women I

It's been a month since my last post. I can't believe how the holiday's flew by. I guess that's what happens when you are busy (or just old!). I certainly had my share of planning holiday parties this year. I planned and organized the management staff party for Walker Farms and Produce. I had the dinner catered but set up at Keith's cycle/scooter business for it. I just had a Santa Bingo game

Theresa sent me an email from one of her friends recently that really touched my heart. This woman, Kathy Snow, having raised a son with a disability, echoed my feeling so well in an article she had written. I have been so impressed with her website that I thought it would be a good idea for everyone to check it out.Her first few lines states, "disability is a minority group that anyone of us

As you know, I LOVE CHRISTMAS! I love everything about it. I love the shopping, wrapping gifts, cooking, planning parties, but most of all the Christmas decorations. If I had my way I would spend every night driving around looking at the lights and decorations through out town. A favorite memory was the two years before Mom died and we took the kids to San Diego to spend Christmas with her and

Bryler Frank Wilding was finally born last night at around 8:30 pm by c-section. It had been a very long day for Tiffany and Caleb as she went into the hospital at around 4:00 am. He weighed in at 8 lbs and 4 oz! Nice size baby - one of the biggest for our family! Tiffany's mom and sister and Caleb's mom, Brandi all came up from Utah yesterday morning.

Well, we went ahead and did a lease to buy option on our home at Treyden Drive to a nice younger couple and decided to move up into the "big" house. Frank hired Caleb and another guy to help him move all of my "treasures" through out the week. Yes, we filled our big storage room and more. On Thursday he had the tv's moved up there so of course we had to spend the night. We had the new

Caleb's fiance', Tiffany, is due to have a baby boy on Nov. 9 so we had a baby shower for her on October 18. Of course with this being an important election year and me being the one to organize the shower we had to have a "political" theme. I made the invitation to look like a campaign brochure inviting everyone to a rally to support our new candidate. Promises that he will keep were included

On Sunday we had a wonderful experience. I made a turkey dinner for the family as it was Theresa's and Bryan's birthdays this week. After dinner Theresa, Rich, Tera, Tenlee and Tera's friend Brendon, all went with us up to the new house to watch a movie in the theater room. The movie we watched was "The Ultimate Gift." It is a story about a wealthy young man's journey to receive his

On Sunday our Sacrament meeting was about miracles in our lives. How fitting considering the past week we have had. Caleb's Tiffany, who is 7 months pregnant, became very sick and was in ICU in the hospital. It was a kidney infection and we were really concerned for her and the baby but after several days of care she is doing well. Caleb really showed that he has grown up by the way he handled

On Saturday, Aug 30 we wanted to do something fun with the family while Jana was here visiting for the week. We decided that we would try to float the river up by Ashton. Layne and Val had planned a camping trip with the Terry's and Tera couldn't get off that day as she was managing at Ruby River. So, it was Theresa and Rich, Bryan, Ali and Ryder, Caleb and Tiffany, Jana, Dad and I that braved

This past weekend we took a little weekend get-away with Theresa, Richard, Bryan, Ali and Ryder. We headed up to Island Park on Friday night and stayed there. Rich has a cabin up there and so we parked Bryan and Ali's camper at their place for the night. We had dinner and enjoyed a game of Phase 10 before going to bed. I don't think I won....Saturday morning after a breakfast of bisquits and

The 2008 Bonneville County Relay for Life held July 11 & 12. Doesn't sound like much does it? But as the the 2007 and 2008 event chair let me tell you, Relay can be, is, should be a big deal! Going home with bleary eyes, tired aching feet, a hoarse voice and having been on the track from 8:00 am Friday until 12:00 noon on Saturday you wonder... Was it worth it? We didn't reach our goals but we

It's been so hectic this past month or two that I haven't taken time to "blog"! We finally got our offices moved into Idaho Falls. When I started my job with Walker's, Keith told me that we wouldn't be in Menan very much longer, probably a year... Well, almost 8 years later we have finally made the big move. It hasn't been fun. Not that I had to carry heavy stuff or anything like that. We

On Memorial Day weekend we spent quite a bit of our time rocking the upstairs fireplace in the new house. I have been watching it being done in other homes and figured we could do it just as well or even better! Frank and Caleb wrapped the walls with the metal lath and then plastered it. So the hard part was done! We used a cultured stone (fake rock) called Chardonney Fieldstone. Making sure we

Sadly, on Tuesday, May 13, 2008 Frank's mom, Karla, passed away. She had fallen and cracked her pelvis on May 4th and the doctor wanted to keep her in a rehab situation for a couple of weeks. We had her moved to IF on Thursday, May 8th. We were able to visit everyday and were so shocked when Nyla called and said she died in her sleep on Tuesday afternoon.Monday, May 19th was her funeral and I

Okay, the other day our neighbor came over and invited us to his house on Friday night. We really like this guy, Ryan, and so thought out of politeness we would go over because he said it was about Melaleuca!After having Brandi work in their call center, Frank work for VanderSloot on his ranch, and Theresa having a distributorship, I figured I really knew everything there is to know about

It was our first date! We went to the prom with a two other couples. Who woulda' thought... Poor Frank. He spent three hours washing and cleaning his car, a 1958 Chev, only to have to drive 26 miles out to Monteview to get me and the last three miles was down a muddy dirt road! When he got to our "home" he had another surprise. We lived in an old wooden grainery! The wind had blown the door

Jana has been bugging me to start this blog. I actually started one a few years back but it was to let out my political frustrations and no one read it! So, then I hit the political boards and ended up arguing with everyone. So, maybe I can write a little bit on here about politics and mix it up with family happenings! So, I'm thinking this will take the place of my journal. Right? I hope so
