Elder Grondel has arrived safe and sound. It is nice to have him back with the family. I really enjoy listening to his stories. I also enjoyed the many friends and family members that came to welcome him home last Friday evening.

Travis will be speaking in church this Sunday August 24 at 11:00 am. Our Chapel is the Treeline and Sahara Chapel. Any questions on how to get there call me at home.

Thanks again for all the Love and Support from everyone.

Well this is prettier in Picture than it was in live wedding. I wish that I could do cakes like I used to do, with less flaws. I think that I wanted to make things so perfect that I just messed up on things.

My Nephew Jared got married this weekend He was married in the Las Vegas Temple to Eleesha Mandeles. It was a great day.

I Have a great Husband!!!!

Dave surprised me with these beautiful roses. I love to get flowers. Dave does a good job of picking the out.

Thats all I wanted to share. Hope you all have a great day.

An Elder Grondel Update

Elder Grondel has been involved with lots of service. He went with other Elders to Columbus, Indiana to help with the clean up from the floods. Service is a great opportunity to rub shoulders with the non-members and to plant seeds of the gospel.

This week he found out that he will be training a new Elder straight from the MTC. This is one of the things that Elder Grondel loves to do, train new Elders. Elder Grondel has also moved, not to a new area just to a new apartment/house. His new address is 2301 S. Pierce Muncie, IN 47302

He is teaching a Sister name Debra and she has set a baptismal date of Aug. 1st. So if you could keep her in your prayers, he would love that.

Thats all the news we hear from Indiana.

BABY RYAN HAS ARRIVED ! ! ! ! ! !

Grand Baby #4 has arrived ! Ryan Matthew Troxell arrived via Dr. Paul at 2:51 on the 1st day of Summer. He weighted in at 8lbs. 13 ozs. 201/2 long. We think that he is so wonderful already. I can't wait to get him to Grammy's house to spoil him.

Graduation Day was wonderful. We had a great day as family and friends. I can't believe that Blayne is old enough to even graduate but he did. I am sure glad that it was dark in the building cause I am a big cry baby. I've cried everytime and I am sure that I will cry more times. I am thankful to all of those who have helped with Blaynes education and everything else that he has done thus far in his life. I pray that you will continue to help him in the future.

We are caught up to date until Michelle has her baby. SOON we hope
