Schiers Thanksgiving 2010

Uncle Larry Carving the Turkey!

Feast of all Feast's

Blake and Qydian Spilling the Beans!
  
Please pass the Turkey!
 It was a smaller crowd than usual this year for Thanksgiving. But, none the less we always know how to have a great time. Mike and I have not been 100% due to our recent surgeries and really greatly appreciated all the help from Uncle Larry and Aunt Cathy during this Thanksgiving weekend. There was a lot of snow to shovel and Christmas Lights that needed hanging, and they were there to do it all for us! We have much to be thankful for, but most of all we are greatfull for our family this time of year!

He and his family where able to come up from St. George to attend Uncle Glades funeral. While at the cememtary, little Tyler wouldn't let big Tyler out of his sight. He was convinced that big Tyler was himself when he grows up! Leave it up to a three year old to imagine this one!

Remembering Glade J. Steiner

My Uncle Glade passed away just a little more than 24 hours ago, just a few weeks shy of what would have been his 80th birthday. He will greatly be missed. All the fond memories of horse races, wheelbarrow races, belly blows, and Glade's famous chocolates for our birthday's. If you have memories of Steiner Construction or Jack and Jill Bowling Lanes in American Fork, UT, you probably have met my Uncle Glade. He was known as a Bowling Ace in his younger years, and remained a bachelor until the age of 49, when he met the love of his life, Aunt Jan. They've been able to share 31 years together. He's the best Uncle a niece could ever ask for, I'm full of memories and emotions tonight! I'll always love you and miss you Uncle Tater! You were the best of the best!

High School Girlfriends Reunion

Cyndie Stephens, Trina Boley, Linda Schiers
 Ilene Davies & Ginny Stolworthy
Four of my good High School friends, and I got together this year for a best  "girlfriends" reunion. First time in 31 years that all five of us have been able to get together. We have all remained friends, but never had the good fortune to all meet at the same time. Infact, this could really be called a Kindergarten Class Reunion. Yes, all five of us were in Ms. Makin's Kindergarten Class of 1966 at Forbes Elementary in American Fork, UT
