Mom's Retirement after 36+ years!

My mom retired on June 30th after 36+ years of working at Logan Regional Hospital, and she looked absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!! I am so excited to have my mom at home all the time now. We can go on trips and do fun things during the day. I always had a working mom and I am glad that she can finally be home. I feel like she has gave a lot hard work and service to LRH! I am so proud of her, how cool to walk away from a job knowing that you gave your all to something for so long!!! I know that her and my dad will find many things to do. She already has 2 trips planned for this summer, and I think more are being planned. ;) But she totally deserves all of it. I am so grateful of the example she has been to me. I hope to be half as good as her someday. So many people have told me they are so sad she is retiring and I am sad I wont see her at work anymore but......I get to see her a lot more at home. It was so weird on Wednesday to have her hang out with us during the day. We went to the new wal-mart and to lunch. I know we need to get better plans but I am so glad that I can just have her whenever I want now. Sorry mom you might get sick of me and Noah but we are SO SO happy for you, and what an accomplishment you have made! LRH had an open house for her on Monday and I took some pictures of it. We love you mom and I can't wait for you to be able to do whatever you want whenever you want. I was a little nervous when my mom was going to quit because I will miss her. But my sweet mother-in-law got my mom's job so how cool is that? My mother in law worked hard and got her masters so now she will me in my moms old office. How crazy is that??? I love it though. I am glad that my mom and mother in law are good friends. I am so proud of both of them! Mom I freaking love your guts and can't wait for a fun summer and maybe some overnight trips to park city?????




















The Tree they gave her is so pretty

Michelle! Your mom is so amazing! I know LRH is not going to be the same without her. She was the one who actually gave me the opportunitgy to start working there! I love her to death and she is sure going to be missed! But, in the same sense, I am so happy for your family to be able to have your mom around all the time. I am jelous!

Will you tell her for me that I'm sooo sorry I missed her open house, we had plans to go to Lagoon with some friends that same day, love summer time. I really do, it's just so busy!! Tell her I love her and miss her to death!!! But, I'm so happy for her and for you to have her home! My mom worked from home and I loved every minute of it!! So enjoy!!

Wow, I can't imagine 36 years.... Just think, we'll be limping around the hospital halls in the middle of the night after in 36 years! I'll almost be 70 years old.... yikes!

Big party at Logan Regional huh? Why wasn't I invited. Don't worry, I'm sure it was still kinda fun even though I wasn't there! See you soon!

I was so sad to have missed the open house!! And of course, am sad to see your mom go! She will be hard to replace, but at least I know a qualified person is taking her spot. I think that is crazy that your mother-in-law took her spot!! It seems you are related to half the people at LRH! Crazy! Have fun with your mom!
