Cousin Memories - Taken from Wilda's Personal History
Wilda’s Cousins:
Kay-Irene-Edith-Edna-Elenor-Dorthea Millward
After supper Wilda along with her cousins would have to get their lessons done, whether it was reading, arithmetic or
geography. Edna and Wilda (were the same age) joined the 4-H cooking club. They each had to can five pint bottles of fruits and vegetables. They would win first and second place ribbons on each bottle entered! With her cousins, they would make a ball diamond in the pasture and all the boys and girls in Bitter Creek would come for a ball game! Afternoons in the summertime they would walk down to Fairview and swim in “Big Hole”! They would have bonfires and candy pulls.
One fun experience Wilda had with Edna was going camping with the older girls in Bitter Creek! Alice Barrus took them and a few other girls in a little buggy up Cottonwood Lake. It stormed all night. They didn’t have a tent so they had to take their bed rolls and sleep in the girl’s restroom!
Wilda and Edna were taught to be great Sunday School teachers by observing the way her Aunt Mary would give the lesson and then find an exciting story with a good moral to tell. Mary decided it would be good for Wilda and Edna to tell the story – so every other Sunday Wilda got to tell the story and learned the more real you could make it the better the class was. This was where Wilda began to have a love for teaching the gospel to the little ones.
The man Wilda would fall in love with and marry actually started out by dating her cousin Edna! Her uncle Lyle was
teasing Wilda and Edna and said, “Now when Melvin comes to the door tonight the one that answers the door will get
to go with him!” Edna had a date that night so Wilda got to answer the door and sure enough Melvin asked her out!

Cousin Memories - Tawnya Olson Harrison
My cousin memory:
My earliest cousin memory would have to be LONG Sunday drives to Brigham City @ 55 MPH to visit Larry and Myrna’s family. I loved seeing Laura and Lisa and the chats we would have in the basement. There was always a homemade treat too! It is hard to believe now having to drive to Star Valley to see them, or Provo to visit.
My recent memories are that awesome time visiting with Gina and Janae at the football game, and I will never forget standing against the fence the entire whole Las Vegas bowl game with Sandee.

Cousin Memories -Janna Olson Wallace
Michael Mel had come and stayed with our family while his parents were out of town. We had gone with my mom up town to take Tawnya to her organ lessons. While we were waiting for her, Mike found an injured bird and wanted to take it home so bad!
**Hey Mike! Do you remember what the fate of that bird was?

Cousin Memories - Jaynie Olson Jensen
Cousin Memories
I remember when Kristen came to Logan and stayed at our apartment while I was attending college for the weekend checking things out at USU.
Tresa came to Midvale with her team to play the Huskies when I was on the volleyball team at Hillcrest and she was on the team at Mountain View!
I was able to see Sandee at the MTC while I was there when I went to get copies. It was so fun to see her!
I appreciated Gina playing the piano at my wedding reception!
Recently as we made the move to southern Utah, we ended up in the same ward as Kristen and her family. It has been fun to get to know them and play with them. I have run into David Ord’s family a few times at Target here as well. We’ve been able to have dinner with Kristen, Chad, and David’s family here in Southern Utah!
