A Busy Girl

Bethany has already met many of her crazy relatives from all over. She's been one busy little girl! Here are some of our pictures.

A proud Grandma Marge at the hospital. This is her 23rd grandchild, we think!

Grandpa Thornton and a tired Hiram at the hospital

The Thornton siblings plus spouses and children, about 10 days after Bethany was born. They were all in Utah for a family reunion.

Bethany's Great Uncle Rob, from Idaho, stopped by and ate dinner with us. It was great to see him! And Uncle John and soon-to-be Aunt Amy came too. A good time was had by all. This was about the end of August.


Grandpa Corson flew out for Bethany's baby blessing. You can tell from this picture that they got along just great! He got to see some of her "Big Smiles"- and, to be honest, he heard some of her big screams too! But at least they weren't during her blessing.

At Uncle Sam's house with Grandma Corson (and John and Amy, not in this picture). The delicious dinner is also not pictured, but boy was it good!

We visited Bethany's GREAT Grandma Rose in Declo, ID. It was GREAT to see her! And she sent us home with some apples from her very own trees!

Also, Liz's brother Rob came out from Virginia, but Liz didn't whip out her camara quickly enough. He offered some helpful hairstyling advice on dealing with Bethany's natural mullet. He recommends a rat tail. We'll think about it:)
