grandma and grandpa miller









highlight of this weekend was def. seeing the grandparents. we went to their ward in phelan to hear them speak and it was so nice. I guess my grandma miller is very scared to speak and church and my dad said she has only done it 4 times in her whole life so we took the opportunity to hear her. she spoke about how she gained her testimony and the joys of being a grandparent. it made me grateful to have been brought up in a strong family and even more grateful to realize that my dads side of the family has so many strong active members for me to look up to. in my grandpas talk he shared that out of 21 grandchildren i think 11 have served missions. what great examples we had to follow. I am so grateful. after wards we took a few pictures and got a pretty funny one of my dad and unlce larry. hopefully the cousins and family check this one out cause im sure they would love it..ha ha...im so grateful for all the wonderful memories i have of my grandparents growing up and im glad that for part of my life they lived so close and we were able to see them so regularly. I feel lucky to have also had a very close bond with my great grandfather who would come over alot growing up as well. I remember going to church with them and having sunday dinners with them.
