Corless Connection - Sterling Heights, Michigan 23 May 2010


Happy Birthday to Dan & Dad!
Temple Adventure - Mom & Dad bravely completed their first shift as temple workers. It was filled with learning as will be the next several weeks. The other experienced workers are very helpful and kind to the beginners. Dad was glad to see Jim & Vanessa there even if it was just for a moment. 
Mother’s Day prolonged - Mom’s Mother’s Day gift from Dad finally arrived. One Eternal Round is the last book of Hugh Nibley. Mom and Dad both love it!
Garden of Corless’ - Dad helped Ryan build and install a garden box and then made one for him & Mom. Dad’s design has legs to get it off the ground away from the neighborhood rabbits and minimizes painful kneeling and bending down to tend it. 
Movie Night - Michael, Mom & Dad went to “Robin Hood” with Russell Crowe as Robin. Good story/legend of bad guys and worse guys, lots of action, sprinkled with bloody violence.
The Plumbers - Ryan & Dad installed the vanity, sink and toilet in the basement bathroom on Saturday afternoon, thus getting one step closer to getting it fully operational.  The boxes that the vanity came in were a source of great entertainment for Preston, Jacob and Sophia as they turned them into a club house and a space ship.
Birthday Party - Jim, Vanessa, Tyler, Samantha, Joshua, and Olivia and Ryan & Maureen, Preston, Jacob, Sophia and Rex joined Mom and Michael for a lasagna and salad dinner, raspberry chocolate cake, lemon meringue pie, canoe rides and candy game to celebrate Papa’s birthday.  The sun was shining, the sky blue; it was a great day!
Love y’all,
Mom & Dad
