Commencement





It has begun! After pushing the idea of creating a blog away for so many years we have finally embraced change. We will be plastering our faces and updates all over this page for future reference but for now just rhetoric. As the year changes from 07 to 08 we have reflected many times on the blessings that surround us. What an amazing experience it is to watch life pass by bringing many new challenges and rewards.

Misty has been very busy with the kids this year as they start school and grow into independence. She focuses most of her energy on her calling in the young womens, overseeing the hormonal imbalances of an overlyactive behive group. Ethan has started kindergarten at a charter school here in town. He has really enjoyed learning how to read and loves math. He has become quite a football fan and is growing like a weed. Haley is turning into quite a young lady with beautiful long hair and a real passion for ballet. She loves to help out and is always happy. She will start Kindergarten next year. Kayla Joy is a real character. Taking after her dad she is a real clown, making everyone laugh at her funny faces and ridiculous attempts at dancing. I have been practicing for about 2 1/2 years now and time has flown. Our practice has grown every year and I have learned a great deal. We absolutely love where we live and where I work. I have been in the elders quorum for about a year and half and love the ward.

We built a house in Aug of 2006 and have had fun trying to put in a yard and decorate. This last summer we have been building a deck with the supervision of a very generous brother in law. It looks amazing, when things dry up ill take some pictures. Future plans include a trip to California in April, a week in Powell in June and a lot of skiing to take advantage of all this snow. We'll keep everyone informed!
