Emily is STILL pregnant!!!

I am in Georgia. waiting for Emily to have her baby...with NOTHING HAPPENING YET! We've been walking, and today we went and had eggplant parmesan. Here is how Emily looks all the time...
Sally is so cute and fun to be with. She wasn't shy with me even the first time I saw her. This is how she says "Grandma" What could be better than hearing this?

Hesterman Ramblings

Here's an update on our mission...we are having a great time! We have been working with the Sanchez family, and David, the father, was baptized about 3 weeks ago. He has seen huge blessings since that...his family is stronger, and he got a promotion in his job. He was able to baptize his daughter, Melanie, 2 weeks after his baptism. We got to take the family to Regional Conference at the Conference Center. They had never been to Temple Square before! What a great family! We hope to be a part of getting them sealed in the temple a year from now.
Carson started soccer! It is just like old times, going to his soccer games. The kids are so darn cute, I can hardly stand it. Carson's coach is awesome, the first game, Carson got the "Bravery Award", and the second game, I think he got the "Hustle Award". Carson is loving it! I watched him run, and he runs like DJ used to.
How fun is it being a grandma?

(Notice where the ball is, and how many of the kids are looking at it!)

Birds and Becky...



I despise birds...I don't know why, but I have been afraid of them as long as I can remember. It seems like they know that, and are out there just to harrass me! I have been pooped on several times, and had one chase me once. I have never run so fast in my life! People think it's funny that a little tiny bird can turn me into a screaming, crying maniac.

So, yesterday, I was riding my bike, my newest hobby. I love being out in the fresh air, exercising, and was enjoying myself as usual. I saw, ahead of me, a cat jump over a fence. Behind the cat, a hawk came swooping down, straight towards me!!! I don't think he was out to get me, he might even have been teasing the cat, but none of that mattered. I screamed, ducked, and of course, fell off my bike. As I was lying there, an older woman came and asked if I was OK. All I could say was, "A bird attacked me!" I felt pretty stupid, but thought I might as well let every body else get a laugh out of it!

Skye's Pictures

Amy got her pictures from Skye Johansen, and is trying to decide which she likes best...funny, I have a whole different group that I like.



Here's what Cameron was doing most of the photoshoot...I think this is hilarious, and I've got to put this picture somewhere in my house!

I think even though you can only see one eye, that this is adorable!

Grandpa thinks this is the essence of Sophie: shy, thoughtful, smart.

I was at the photoshoot, and after it was over, I thought, "If she gets anything good, I'll be a believer...well, she did a fantastic job, and I believe in Skye!

The Cleggs Can Swim!!!



Amy and her kids come over once a week for "Grandma Day". We do lots of things, but in the summer we almost always swim. This year, Sophie and Carson have really become good swimmers. Today Sophie swam the length of the pool 6 times! Carson didn't want to be outdone, so he swam the length too. They both learned how to float on their backs today too. Cameron loves the water as well, he just walks off the side. It's so fun to see them love the water. Yea for the Clegg swimmers!

I'm sending this video to DJ, so it keeps referring to him, but I still think that it's cute.

Pictures from Deej

It has been just over one year since DJ has been on his mission to England, and he just sent us his 3rd set of pictures. I now have about 30! He's working hard in the mission field, and taking pictures is obviously not his biggest priority. It just made me so happy to see him, and that he is doing well and looks happy. (his hair is a little scary, but oh, well.) Here's a couple of pictures, and a video that is pretty funny. What a cute boy, huh?
This is what the people of England do for July 4th...notice the Conferedrate flag!

Our Mission

OK, first of all, I'm sad that I'm not getting many memories...if you see this, go down one and give me a memory. I'm needy!

This is David beating up a missionary. Good start, huh?

David and I have just embarked on a 2 year part-time mission. We are in what they call the Spanish Initiative. We are assigned to a ward, and go to it every Sunday. We also will be proselyting missionaries, and will be teaching some English. So far, we don't have a clue as to what exactly we are supposed to do, but are hoping to learn. On Saturday, we went to our first activity, Mini Olympics for the primary. We helped with games for the kids. It was fun, and we got to know some of the people a little. This week, there is a ward campout...and David is willing to go!!!! Most of the kids speak English, but a lot of the adults don't. This Sunday, we sat next to a young man in the Gospel Essentials class, and he interpreted for us. It was very cool, he was an investigator, and knew nothing about our religion. He would say something in English, and I could feel that he was learning as he was talking. The spirit was very strong. I could tell that he wanted to be there. We are hoping for more great missionary moments!


Here are some of the cute kids!
