Corless Clan Connection - Sterling Heights, Michigan - 15 May 2011


Soggy Spring time - The Friday night “Father-Son Camp-Out” was a moisture saturated affair, but Dad had a “good” sleepless time together in the camper with Ryan, Preston, Jacob and Joshua.  The old pop-up camper kept them all high and dry as the thunder boomed, the lightning flashed and rain plummeted through much of the early morning hours. They came home after breakfast.  Sunday it rained all day long. Photos:  http://gallery.me.com/rcorless#100936
Stake Conference - Dad attended the leadership meeting in the afternoon and was joined by Mom  and Grandma for the all adult session in the evening.  Sunday morning session Bishop Edgely, Sister Ephilin, Elder Ballard and President Eyring spoke via broadcast.  It was great to hear their words and feel the Spirit of the Lord as they spoke to us.
Celebrate - Stebar’s, Grandma Sparks, Jim, Vanessa, Tyler, Samantha, Joshua, Olivia, Ryan, Maureen, Preston, Jacob, Sophia and little Rex came over after conference for Lasagna dinner with Dad, Mom and Michael; together they celebrated Dad’s 62nd birthday.  (The actual birthday will be this Tuesday the 17th., but Mom and Dad will be working at the temple then, as usual.)   A great time was had by all. Thanks for the calls, video/calls from Rachel, Lara and David.
Power shopping - After Mom & Dad had a strategy session, Dad went to Costco and took advantage of the latest coupon book of deals.  Friday, Mom & Dad journeyed with Stebar’s to Birch Run to find some hot deals.  It was wonderful!
Matter Organized - Grandma Sparks is getting her landscape in proper order. Dad helped her clean out some of under growth out of the back yard, changed the bedspreads and skirts around on her beds and got the air conditioning working on her Jeep. 
Love y’all, Mom & Dad
