only son of an only son of an only son

So many thoughts are running through my mind today as I reflect on the birth of my first grandchild.

Sadly I was not there to celebrate the wonderful event, as luck would have it, I had to travel this week.

Today I took on a title I will have with me forever- Grandpa! When I think of Grandpa, I think of my Grandpa's. I miss them, they were 2 very different men but were brave men who made a living off the beautiful southern Utah landscape.

Grandpa Johnson passed away while I was serving a mission in Ecuador, he had been in poor health for many years before that. He was a quiet, unassuming man. He had a deep gravely voice and laugh.

Grandpa Munson was a good natured guy who loved to laugh and tell jokes. I feel so lucky to have had him around for so many years. He was an amzing guy who just kept on ticking.

The great thing about this little boy born today is that he is the only one that carries the Munson name on for his father, his grandfather, his great grandfather, and his great great grandfather. Congratulations Grandpa Si!

He will have the best father a son could ever have.

A whole month of birthdays!


March is the month for birthdays in the Munson family.
Patrick celebrated his on the 11th, Skye celebrated hers on the 12th, the only thing they needed was for the baby to be born on the 13th. He had other thoughts in mind. I guess he wants his own special birthday.
Anyway, I want to wish a very happy birthday to my kids in Logan. I hope they had 2 great days of birthdays! I love you guys.

Dad's time to brag.


Ok... I have to brag about my fantastic kids... Why I was blessed with such great kids I'll never know. They take after their Mother is why.

Lacy is doing great with her new job. She is saving money for a car..a red convertible corvette....NOT!!!!! It has been wonderful to have her back home with us. She gives me lots of hugs... which mean so much to me. I love to watch movies with her when she isn't being occupied by some other guy!

These last few weeks have been big for Kelsey. Her science project was picked to go to BYU for the State finals. She recieved top scores for her Rube Goldberg machine...see video. And she is in the School musical which starts this week...Way to go Tosk!!!! It is so hard to see the "sweet one" grow so fast, but she is such a sweet young woman.



Patrick is doing so well and is about to become a Dad... eee gads, that will make me a grandpa....thanks alot Patrick! He has accepted a summer internship with ATK to work in the Contracts Administation group. Skye is just this little blonde girl with a little round belly. It's so hard to believe that she is almost 9 months pregnant. I hope she is getting her sleep now, because if Finegan is anything like Patrick was, she is in for 2 very long years of nights!!!!



HMMM for some reason the video did not attach.. any one know why? It is 34 meg, too big perhaps?

Ok, I'm still trying to figure out how to do this thing!
I was able to get Alex's slide show going....phew.
Anyway... I want to give my love to Kris, Kenyon and Alex.
Alex left on Feb. 20th for the MTC. He will be serving in the Mexico City East mission.

My little sis is such a rock, and a great example to her whole family. She was such a huge supporter for Patrick while he served in Houston, Texas.
I love you Sis, my prayers are with you and your family.
