( This is one of those take it yourself Pictures)This is BeauDee Bisel Richards, I am DeLoy Bisel, Jr.'s daughter and I have a story I would like to share with all of you. I love Woodland which is where I have lived, and I did not want to leave Woodland. But after talking Wacey, my husband, out of not leaving to move to Oregon once...even I could not pass up the offer the new job was giving to us. So I hesitantly left my family and my beautiful valley of Woodland that I love. We moved to Oregon in October and the first week I went to church the lady conducting Relief Society was fun and bubbly!! She asked me to stand and introduce myself and tell where I was from. I was shocked when she said "You moved from Woodland, Utah? I think I have family there we need to talk." Not to many people know were Woodland, Utah is so when she said she had family there I was a little excited!!!
I did not get to talk to her until a few weeks later. I had been having a hard time being away from my family and I trying to adjust to Oregon and our new life here. It had been about 3 weeks and I was homesick and did not know anyone, so when the Relief Society president called to get to know me I was so excited to have a adult conversation and get to know someone from my new surroundings!! While we were at the park the cute bubbly lady in the presidency came to tell me that they had a "mommy and me" for moms and kids at the church that day and I could go get to know some of them and let my girls play. As we were walking down the sidewalk to our cars she reminded me she had family in Woodland and I thought for sure I would know who they are, Woodland is a small town and I know most people there. But when she said "Well my maiden name is Bisel", I about died. I think my reaction was "SHUT UP, my maiden name is Bisel" and then we went on to figure this out! Turns out that she is Susan Bisel Green. I think we decided we are cousin's once removed. I had heard so much about Uncle Rean and I think when I told my dad we were moving to Oregon he told me that Uncle Rean had lived in Oregon. But I never thought about having anyone I would be related to here and in my ward!! It has been great to see Susan every Sunday and know I have family right here. It is a small world after all!!!
This picture is Susan and my girls!! Susan Invited us to come to her house and make turkeys for Thanksgiving!! We had tons of fun thank you Susan!!!
