Cameron Got His Mission Call!!
Cameron got his mission call. He received it in the mail on Thursday and then we had to wait until Friday night before he opened it. We invited friends and family over for the occasion. Everyone who came over guessed where they thought he would go. Cameron is happy and we are proud of him for making this decision
He is going to the Atlanta, Georgia mission!! He leaves January 7, 2008.

Girls Weekend in Portland





What a blast!! Get 9 women together who are related and what do you get????? Alot of information I cannot share because what happens in Portland STAYS in Portland!!! Ha Ha.
What a blast. 4 sisters, 1 mom, 2 aunts and 2 cousins. We called it the Cornwall sisters reunion.
Cornwall is my mother's maiden name. She has 4 sisters. My sisters and parents, aunt and grandmother were together in Seaside, Oregon 2 years ago this November. That was the last time that I saw my Grandmother Cornwall alive as she died 1 month later. That was a very memorable weekend. We were together for Grandmother's 96th birthday!!! She said she wanted to live to be 100!! I was very close to my grandmother ever since she was a little girl. I called her my mod grandmother as she was very classy and always dressed in style.
Last year my mother suggested that we have a Cornwall sisters reunion to get together in the name of Grandmother. ( By the way it is Grandmother, not Grandma. Growing up she would hear the boys call her parents ma and pa and she didn't like the sound of it, so when she had her kids it was Mother and Daddy and when she had grandkids it was Grandmother and Granddad) So when people ask about my "Grandma" I think they are talking about my Grandma Davis
Getting together in Portland was great. We talked we laughed we laughed we cryed. Walks on the beach, drives along the coast. Some of us renewed our relationships with one another. When a bunch of women get together it can be very revealing.........some of the things we talk about. Wow!! Don't worry Cathy, I wouldn't DREAM of telling. ha ha.

Okay I need to get better at this. I guess I am intimidated by all the cute and creative bloggers out there that mine will be very boring. Oh well who cares.
I have spent all of my free time( and most of all the time I should have been cleaning the house or doing laundry) READING. I haven't been a reader most of my life. I really didn't enjoy reading in my school years. I always thought it was a waste of time. When I would hear a teacher tell us how many books she read over the summer I would think...HOW BORING! On occasion I have been into a really good book and then I can't put it down.
Well, my friend handed me the book The Host and said "Here, you might enjoy this." Well I did and now I have more of a desire to read. I started reading Twilight, so we'll see how that goes.
