Idaho Update

Mom is safely ensconced in Idaho. My sister-in-law Carrie laid in the steaks, fish, fresh fruits and veggies, oatmeal, grapefruit, and bread from the bakery. Yesterday when I checked in, Carrie said Mom and Loren were huddled around the radio. Today, she told me they were off walking in the woods. And tonight my nephew Zane graduates from high school. Pretty sweet stuff.

Speaking of sweet stuff, Carrie and I have decided that when Mom moves on to heaven, the only suitable thing for us to do will be to get tattoos. We would like to have the family motto, "Everything's Fine", immortalized in ink. Being a traditional girl, I was thinking of something like this:



A heart for Mom, a heart for Dad, and the family motto on the banner. Whaddya think? Who's in?

ETA: I really like this one too, but would modify with two hearts.



Postscript: I ordered the acrylic stamp from Etsy today. :)

  1. I'm not a tattoo person but could use a piece of jewelry with the two hearts and motto! So happy that Loren and Mom are having their special time together. Would like a transcript of the conversation...
