Time just keeps flying by. Seems like we just celebrated this boy's 6th birthday! Now he's 7 and losing his teeth. We had a meal at Chick-Filet on his birthday, July 28.
Then gathered with the Robinson's at a playground for cupcakes, ice cream and a few gifts.
Von and I had ordered him an Avatar toy which arrived a few days later.
Von and I met in 1970, after his mission to England, while I was attending BYU. I just happened to room with his sister, Loralee, who introduced us when he came to visit. Von enlisted in the Air Force where he served a career in aircraft maintenance. I graduated from BYU in Music Ed., then Von and I were married in the Logan Temple, June 1972. We traveled with the Air Force for 10 years until settling down in Kearns. We lived in San Berdoo, CA, were separated a year while he served an unaccompanied tour in Thailand during Vietnam War, then moved to Duluth, MN, Jacksonville, ARK, and Glendale, AZ. Von then served with the Utah Air Guard until his retirement. Our greatest joys have been our 3 children, and now our grandchildren.
I've taught piano since high school, play the organ for church, and we both have had many callings in our LDS Church. I have been working for a house cleaning company,and Von received full military retirement from the Utah Air National Guard in August 2009, when we both became temple workers in the Oquirrh Mountain LDS Temple.
