Old Friends...
Tom and Sherrie Condie and family - Beckah, Tyler, Kristin, Kylie, and Kelise, came for dinner at Ryan and Katie's house tonight. We met Tom and Sherrie right after they got married and moved to Corcoran, CA. They just celebrated their 20th anniversary. Tom and Sherrie used to stay with a much younger Katie and Julie when their dad and I went out of town. Tom would just shake his head over some of Julie's antics. I would just laugh and say "wait till you have your own kids!" Then they had Tyler...
They are an amazing couple and have done a fantastic job with their beautiful family. Beckah just graduated from High School. Tyler is 16, Kristin 13 and the twins are 11. Katie made a fantastic dinner including homemade ice cream. We had such a great time talking and catching up. The kids loved Tyler! He got down on the floor and played with them. There are some huge similarities in Cooper and Tyler. Becca (Clark) and Kristin were best of friends as very little girls and Condies took care of Becca many times when we were out of town working at horse shows. We are so blessed to have such wonderful people in our lives! We share many fond memories and hope they always find the best things in life.
oh my gosh--how fun to see you guys hanging out with Tom and Sherrie and kids. What great friends and longtime memories. Sounds like your summer in Utah is a blast!!
I have learned that it is the non-material things in life that matter: how much we love, family, relationships, love of God, and living the way He wants us to - that is all we will take with us when we go to meet our Father in Heaven after this life. I live with my husband, Rod. We have been married for 9 wonderful years, but have over 60 years of marital experience between us. I have 3 very special daughters that are the joy of my life. I have 5 lively grandchildren whom I love immensely. I am lucky enough to be married to my soul mate. We enjoy many of the same things, but have our individual strengths to complement each other. In fact, I love any time I can spend with him. I love to read and watch movies. My joy in life is my family. I enjoy the luxuries of life and have an abundance of the necessities, too. Truly my cup runneth over!
