The Monastery in Volterra

The courtyard at our monestary

This was the door to our room in the monestary. Notice it has no door knob.

Looking over the valley below Volterra.

Here all four of us are enjoying a walk in the park in Volterra. The Medici Castle is in the background. It is currently used as a prison.

On the Spanish steps in Rome

We all know how much John loves ice cream. Here he is admiring the good gelato ice cream. He did that every day. Yum!!!!! I liked it too.

The coliseum in Rome

Here I am standing in the center of the the Vatican court yard.

John and Gene madly trying to find out where we are and how to get somewhere else.


Christs fooprints so the Catholic church says.


We had a fantasic trip. I am glad to be back on home soil though. It was a experience I will never forget.

When You're Down, Get Up

I thought this was an inspiring video, and I just wanted to share.



Welcome Harrison

This has been a fantastic week.  I was lucky enough to see my 33rd grandchild born on Dec. 12th. Christa is a super trooper.

Avery's Mission Farewell

Benny making Grandma smile.


On May 9th through 11th, John and I travelled to Edmond OK to be with Amber and Avery when they took out their endowments before their missions. This is all of us who were at the temple that day.
