Dad had a birthday.....93 yrs. old.  

So, in true Holyoak fashion we had to have a party! 

All who could attend came to Sacrament Meeting and surprised him .......then on to Hoke's house for a YUMMY lunch!

This family knows how to party!  

It was a fattening weekend for sure!!  

Sad day!

 My cousin Will Napier passed away today after a struggle with cancer.  Went to see him New year's day in the hospital.  He was in a coma but I got to squeeze his hand and tell him I loved him.  He will be missed....especially every 4th of July at our family reunions!!
Say hi to my Mom for me Will!

We got a new game......

Let me tell you, it's a HOOT!!  

We played it with Clyde and Marla for 

New Year's Eve and I think we're on 

again for tonight!!  

You might want to give it a try!!  

New Year's Eve 2014

We had a nice dinner with Clyde and Marla.  Instead of going out we grilled steaks and played games at our house.  About 10:00 Clyde's phone rang and Logan locked himself out  of his car.  Sweetiepie to the rescue.

It was the coldest night we've had in a long, long time and it was raining. He had plenty of help.....even had someone to hold the umbrella and flashlight while Marla and I sat in the warm car.  Happy New Year!!   We were asleep before midnight....and had a lazy, quiet Jan. 1, 2015.  Just the way we like it!!

Maisy......

waiting patiently for her blanket to be washed.

This girl cracks me up!!

1 year ago this sweet Granddaughter arrived at the MTC.......

headed to spend 18 months in Mexico.

Good job, Mallory.  We are so proud of you.  Missing you especially at Christmas but so happy you made a good choice to serve a Mission!!  6 months to go!!

I stumbled upon Emily's blog the other day and decided I wanted to give it another try.  I wasn't sure I could even remember how.  So far, so good!

THIS IS MY NEW MOTTO FOR 2015......
