2012 Update

This has been a truly wondeful year.  Rex and I have gotten involved in many areas of service in St. George:  Tuacahn, Historic St. George Live Tours, Huntsman Senior Games, and I have volunteered for many annual events such as Iron Man, St. George Marathon, Docutah Film Festival, and service at church as Scout Committee Chairman, teacher of 17 10-yr-olds in Primary, and visiting teaching supervisor. I am also the Social Chairman for ICL in St. George and Chapter Chair of BYU Alumni Association in the St. George area where we have about 5,000 alumni.   Yes, life is wonderful and becomes more so as we serve others. 

Rex has had some health issues with his back pain and leg pain.  He has a herniated disc in his back and bone spurs on his spine.  He is trying to work through the pain and walk each day.  I get a good hour of exercise each morning and feel so deeply blessed.  I have a truly wonderful husband.  We have six fantastic children and their incredible spouses, with 24 amazing grandchildren.  What more could I possibly desire!  I know I have a Savior who lives and loves me.  He is ALWAYS there for me and through his atonement, and with His help, I can accomplish anything and overcome any trial in my life.  I KNOW the gospel of Jesus Christ, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, is the only true church on this earth and if we live by its teachings, we can return to live with God again. 

This past July 2012, we had our Rex and Vicky Lewis Family Reunion.  38 of us spent 4 days on Lake Powell in 2 houseboats, with another ski boat and 2 jet  skies.  Several of the kids learned to waterski.  We had a raft that holds 3 to 4 people and a water weinie that 5 people can ride.  They were pulled behind the ski boat for hours as everyone had an opportunity to ride and have a great time!  We made certain everyone had life jackets and the little ones had them on every waking minute for safety.  Here are a few pictures of our 4 days:
