THE 2nd Generation of FAVERO's & NICHOLS' Cousins in Las Vegas 3.2011

WHAT A FUN CHANCE FOR COUSINS TO GET TOGETHER!
Thanks mommies -
Grandma's love this kind of stuff,
just wish we could have been there!
BUT PICTURES are the next best thing
I've decided!
I can only tell you how happy it makes me
to see you all getting together and
helping your kids know their cousins -
they are going to be around forever,
so it's good to get acquainted early!

You are such a sight for eyes! Gigi & Papa Bob are going to love it -
they love getting all of your phone calls, photos' in the mail
and would especially love a visit!
I'm hoping to bring them to UTAH to visit
for the REUNION. . .Gpa's bday and Father's day maybe?
Anyone have any thoughts about that let me know -

LOVE YOU GIRLS and am so proud of
what great mommies you are being to the next generation!
We know how important the work you are doing is,
just remember ENJOY & smell the roses too!

OUR NEXT MISSIONARY IN GOD'S ARMY Mason U rmston

This week we have learned that our NEXT NEPHEW MASON URMSTON will be serving his mission soon in BOISE IDAHO - I AM THRILLED TO KNOW THAT HE IS WORTHY AND WILLING TO GIVE OF HIS TIME AND TALENTS AND KNOW THAT HE WILL BE A SPIRITUAL GIANT FOR THE MEMBERS AND THOSE THAT ARE SEEKING SOMETHING TO LIFT THEM UP AND HELP THEM UNDERSTAND THEIR PURPOSE HERE ON THIS EARTH and MASON WILL BE THEIR LIGHT!
I am so proud of you Mason, for accepting this challenge to put your life on hold, but I can testify to you that there are special spirits waiting for you to lead them back to our Heavenly Father. I have had the special honor of watching my children, my nephews and many young people PROGRESS thru such a wonderful learning opportunity for themselves and those they serve that I cannot wait to be part of your journey as well.

We feel peace thru the Spirit, but it helps us to know so we can share the information with others as well. I am amazed and secure in my testimony everyday at the way everything works so smoothly and without hesitation in the church organization. Nothing dramatic but consistent! Just like the Plan of Happiness that our Heavenly Father has for us and the plan of Redemption made possible thru His Son, our Savior Jesus Christ and His atonement for each of us.

Having our last son, Elder Kyle Nichols, of our 5 missionaries serving, we have seen the process work all over the world, as well as here in the states, while no one even realizes what is happening daily. The Lord is definately in charge and we need not fear.

My appreciation to you and all of the wonderful members of the church who serve diligently where ever they are called to serve.

March 7, 2011 STEVE's Bday. . .

We really don't want to talk about the Number of our birthdays anymore -
not that we are ashamed of our age, we just don't like to be reminded that we are OLD - or getting older day by day - We have had a great life together - cannot think of anything we would do differently, except maybe LAUGH more and PLAY harder~!
so, we celebrated the day with our little Grandson Spencer who share March 7th as his bday with Grandpa. It was great to see him as he celebrated his Sixth Birthday and had a great bday party in Vegas at a park playing football, games, treats, pizza, presents and family and friends.
He was thrilled to have everyone with him and share all of his stuff with us - so, it is only a wonderful reminder of all of the great moments we have had with each of our children as they grow and now are teaching and loving their children! We are thrilled to be a part of it, and will never grow tired of driving to be with them- In fact Steve and I got a great gift today as the kids decided to remind us of how blessed we are, they gathered their copies of their Patriarchal blessings and presented them to us in a little booklet for us to ENJOY! Thanks for thinking of such a wonderful way to honor us as your parents and celebrate Dad's birthday! We love you all so much and cannot wait to be together again as a WHOLE FAMILY! Forever your parents!
