Meagan, Christie and Reed

Here are my two daughters and my youngest grandchild, Reed. They are in our townhouse in Lehi. We were in Lehi for Reed's baby blessing, so we got to spend a lot of time with him and his older brother, Colin.

My first and maybe only blog

Greetings to all potential readers. I may never post again, but I was in the mood to create a blog so here I am, I guess. Don't be alarmed by the name of my blog--all is well at home, I merely divide my time between two houses (UNEVENLY). I have just finished taking pictures of every room in my townhouse, so rest assured that you will soon be able to experience Lehi virtually. This is just to fill space. If I ever decide to really post, I will be writing without Christie's assistance. Anticipate a change in writing style. GTT tomorrow.
