Happy Birthday, Ben

I just wanted to wish Ben a very happy birthday today.

Air Show!!

Bradley and I got to spend the day together at the Air Show at Hill Air Force Base. He really enjoyed looking at all the planes on the ground, and checking out all the displays. His favorite plane was the one you could drive a bus thru, and he liked the monster truck and helicopters.

Richard

Wow! Three in one day!

A very Happy Birthday today to the Bryner twins, Garrett and Pierce, and also to Ashlee Pearson! We hope all of you have a wonderful day!

Congratulations to Rob Doig for finishing his MBA!!

Last night, Rob finished his last assignment for his last class of his MBA at the University of Phoenix. He began in the fall of 2006, but then took a break for basketball season. When we moved here in July 2007, he had completed 3 classes. These past two school years, he has taken classes pretty much back to back, and has now finished all 15 courses for this degree. I can't tell you how many nights he (and I) have been up til 12 or 1 am getting papers done before the deadline. Rob has also spent many Saturdays, reading, researching and writing, and lots of other evenings on smaller assignments, class discussion and discussion questions. So many times he has fought off exhaustion both mental and physical to find the will to push a little harder to get things done.
Rob has shown an incredible strength of character and resolve, and I admire him profoundly for it. I also admire and appreciate that through this all, Rob has managed to maintain a priority on the family as well. Papers at the University of Phoenix are always due on Mondays, but Rob has almost always still managed to make time for Family Home Evening. He has also been part of many other family activities despite his over full schedule. In the process of getting this degree, he has also greatly improved his writing skills, his understanding of many business ideas and has strengthened his already strong ability to work respectfully with team members.
Now we all need a really big rest, and then we can contemplate what the future without evening school work will be like.

Another Happy Birthday

Like a seasoned PRO!

This is for Jason! It is his first time on a tractor, he did pretty good.

Tearing down the fence

Here are a couple pics of me and Jason working on my yard. I tore down my fence and used a tractor to dig up the future garden area. Then we spread out some topsoil/mulch. New fence goes up next week!

Prayers needed- again

Okay, I know I ask for everyone's prayers a lot, but that's what family's for right?!
We just found out today that our renters that we had in our house in Boise bailed out on us. They used the money that they were supposed to be paying us to pay for their new place. The really bad part is that we talked to them on Sunday and they promised us that they'd have the money to our friends who have been our "landlords" by today, knowing full well that they were leaving and that the money was gone! So now we're stuck with a mortgage payment and our own rent payment. Matt can't take enough time off from work to take legal action on them. All we can do is to call the credit place and report them. Matt's going to go (probably with Anthony and Michael) to Boise tomorrow- Monday to clean the house up and get it back on the market. We HAVE to sell it and sell it FAST! We need your prayers that we'll be able to do this! We don't know what we're going to do if we can't sell it!
Thanks for your love, support and prayers!

Finally Cassy graduation pictures

In Memory

I just got back from the cemetery where Grandma LaDean is buried. Being there got me thinking about all of those who have gone before us. It also got me thinking- am I living my life so that they'd be proud of me? So on this Memorial Day I'd like to challenge each of us to examine our lives and make any changes we need to so that our family and friends who are already on the other side will be proud of us and so that our family truly can be together forever! To those waiting beyond the veil- we love you and miss you!
