Corless Connection - Sterling Heights, Michigan - 27 June 2010


Dear Family,
Grandbuddies - While Maureen and Little Rex attended her brother’s wedding in California, Papa & Nona watched Preston, Jacob and Sophia during the day. We went to the pool once and to the zoo one afternoon with them. One day Papa took them for a bike ride. Good news - there was 100% survival rate of grandbuddies and Papa & Nona.
World Cup Soccer - We all have been watching as many games as we can this week. Dad would text the scores to Michael at work so he could update his Mexican co-workers.  Brazil and the USA both went on the “Knock Out Round” of the top 16 teams. But the USA lost on Saturday ending their bid for the cup. Brazil plays tomorrow (Monday). 
Projects - The work continues on Ryan’s basement with the repair of the nail gun compressor and the installation of more trim and paneling. Holli and Papa took the week off of the chest of drawers - Daniel, Holli and family went on a vacation. Grandpa Corless was happy to report they had visited him for a couple of hours. 
Condo Hunters - Grandma Sparks’ land is scheduled to be sold by July 7th and Mom & Dad are looking, via the internet, at some very nice Condos for her to buy and set up a summer residence in Michigan. 
Stake Youth Conference -  Friday afternoon, Dad taught six 25 minute classes to about 20 of the stake’s youth each time.  The topic was “I Nephi 10:17”- See, Hear, and Know. 
Samantha’s Birthday Party - On Saturday, the now 12 year old Samantha, invited the family to celebrate her birthday  with pizza and swimming.  The weather was just right and everyone had a great time.  She is so excited to go to girl’s camp next week. Go Sam!
Love y’all,
Mom & Dad
