Hello Family




(On the left)The Lowells just had our Vacation when Mary and Gary went on the Mormon trail from Nebraska to Salt Lake. It was very powerful when we would be in a spot where many Saints had lost their lives for their faith and as a gruop we would sing the hymn "Come,Come Ye saints". Here we are crossing the Sweetwater River at Martin's Cove.

After crossing, the Martin Handcart Company came to a group of hills(or a cove) that helped shelter them from the storm. They stayed here several days and many died there.


On the right is the picture of Gary and his family just after Keith returned home from his mission. He and Amber will be married Sept. 27th and they will be moving to Utah.

Another recent celebration was Vilate's first B-day. At that time I was not pregnant and it was the longest period I had gone, since being married, not being pregnant. I even had a month where I was not pregnant and not nursing a baby, so I had to fast on fast Sunday. However the very next Sunday I told Gary I felt very pregnant, took a test and it was positive.
I think that about sums up our recent events. We love you all and hope that this family newsletter idea will work.
