A little memory for our kids that didn't know Grandpa Campbell, it has been 29 years today since he passed away. That was such a terrible day for all of us, something so unexpected and way to young. You grandkids if there is anything I wish you could have it would be for you to spend a hour with your Grandparents, they were awesome!! A little memory I have among the many is, I remember when Grandpa would go on scouting trips he would always bring us home all the leftover goodies. We didn't get alot of candy back then, so this was a real treat for us. We also had to pluck the feathers out of any geese that he would shoot, that was gross, their necks would be all bent wierd and their eyes would be glaring at you!! Yikes!! They had a awful smell to them, I hated that job!! We sure miss you Grandpa!

October

ok, so I guess I'll jump on and catch you up on the McCombs fam. We are grateful the past 2 months are over. Between being sick alot, work, RS, the yard, canning and our basement mess, it has been a trial. On the positive side, the coughing is slowing down, the basement is dry and the sheetrock is here, I get released from RS this week or next for sure, the canning is done except for my apples-the trees are loaded, want some? Work is hectic, I am still at Cox' but only a couple days a month. Al is well, just busy and as always being a pest, he's getting buff from work and dropped another pant size. We just cut down our aspen trees out front and I was sad, I'm pulling out flowerbeds etc. trying to minimize the work load.
We are getting excited to go out East in 23 days. We will spend 5 days with Osolu's and 5 with Tran's. We've never been there in the fall so it should be fun and we get to spend Halloween with grandkids and celebrate 4 birthdays and go to Hallie's baptism. I miss my munchkins.
Speaking of Halloween--greetings from the witch to all the brother in laws. Hope you are all doing well. I've been missing mom and dad-October does that to me. I keep thinking about growing up and the times we've shared. Take care and keep in touch.
Love ya, Vic

Hi from Lehi

Wow, it's 11:00 pm and I have a few minutes to myself so I decided to post on our family blog. It has been awhile. Hope everyone is doing good and is happy and healthy. We are all doing good. Just enjoying life with all it's many things it has to offer both happy things and trials. Sam is finally getting back into the swing of things at work. He is excited to retire from the guard soon. He is back in school and only has a few more months and he will be through. He has been making some beautiful frames, enjoying his honey bees and taking good care of his wife. The Brumfield Family is busy with work and being parents. They are so cute with their little son and are very loving parents. Dennis is going to school and is majoring in criminal justice. We are trying to find a little house here in Lehi for them so it won't be so far to travel. Justin is loving the police academy. He has something new to tell us or show us like how to break a wrist and how quick he can handcuff you. He is working at Taipan Trading setting up displays and unloading things. He is dating a very pretty and very nice girl. Sydney is on a week break from school then will start up again next week. She is enjoying it and doing very well. She should be a Vet. Tech in about 18 months. She is so much fun to have at home. We have been making baby blankets and quilts. She is still dating Travis. Spencer is working hard and playing soccer when he is not working. He keeps us laughing. We are hoping he finds out what he wants to be when he grows up so he can get into school. I am just loving having my family close together again. It was a long not so fun year but now we back together and enjoying each other. I am having a great time watching little Dennis. He is such a blessing to his parents, grandparents, uncles and aunt. I am getting some quilts made which has been fun doing with Sydney. Well that's how we Howlett's are doing. Love to all of you. Be happy!

Funny Story

I was at a birthday party for Jeff's brother's little boy and I walked past an older lady and she grabbed my arm and said are you Wendell Campbell's daughter, I looked at her and said what and she said you must be Wendell Campbell's daughter, I said no he is my Grandpa though. She said you look just like one of his daughter's. It turns out it was June Davids(I think that is her first name), she lived by you guys growing up, she is my sister in laws Grandma, so I guess when people say I look like you guys or like my Mom its true because a comple stranger saw me and just knew I was Wendells Daughter! Fun Story, I hope all is well for everyone love you!
