Grandpa Update

I thought I should post an update for Grandpa as to where he is...

He had a little accident while visiting Cardston. He was riding a horse and the horse got spooked and did a 180 and Grandpa fell off. He hit his head, but seems to be fine. He's okay, but is now staying at the Grand View in Cardston. He just seems to need a lot of care, so for now, that's where he'll be staying.

He doesn't have a phone, fax machine, or email capabilities. We are back to snail mail. We went to the post office today and found out to mail a letter to Canada is only 75 cents!

You can write to him at...

PO Box 1618
Cardston, Alberta
Canada T0K0K0

I'm sure he would really appreciate it if we all let him know that we are thinking about him and love him!!

Forsyth Party in Bountiful!

We had the best time last week, not only did we enjoy a fantastic general conference, but we had a wonderful family get together afterwards.

Brent and Karen and their family came down from Canada, and Merlin, Delores & Holly came down from Spokane. Holly just barely got home from her mission, and Stephanie is headed tothe MTC!

Sooooo.... we did the only logical thing we could think of ...invite all the rest of the Forsyth's and have a party!!

I called Carolyn and she made most of the rest of the phone calls and everyone pitched in and brought food, It was great! We just had dinner and visited with everyone. I was amazed at how many kids and people we had here, and how pleasant it was. The kids all seemed to get along just wonderful! It was so sad when the time came for everyone to leave.

Here are some pics.... For ease in loading so many I didn't put them in order (they are more likely in backwards order!) and didn't name anyone. If you want any of the family ones and need them to be a better resolution for printing, let me know and I can email you the original. I think we got some great pics!!! Enjoy!!!
















































































































































































We couldn't believe how well it came off and we only came up with the idea and executed it in 2 days. My only regret was that I neglected to invite Sara & Jim, I'm pretty sure they are in Logan somewhere, it's kind of far, but they might have made the trip had I just remembered to ask. Sorry Sara, I was thinking of you, just a little too late!
