I am so grateful this holiday season for my children, grandchildren, family and friends. What a terrific season to be with the ones you love and create memories for an eternity. My Heavenly Father has lent me a few of His special children to guide me on this earth. I say guide me because although I should be teaching them, they are always teaching me. I love that I have daughters who check up on me in the evenings so I do not have to be alone while Aaron is working. I love that my sons and son-in-law's also take care of me and help me with anything I need. I love that my daughter-in-laws are so loving and kind to me! Yes, I am very blessed in my life and couldn't be happier with the way my grandchildren are being taught the ways of the gospel. I am sending my love to you all wherever you are!

Hard to believe it has been so many years since I have posted on our Blog. All our children have moved back to live in our area. So glad to have them nearby. Candise and Jesse are adopting their second child, that will make 6 children for them. They live in West Point. Mandy and Larry moved to West Haven and have 4 children, 2 boys and 2 girls. Mandy still teaches 3rd grade at West Clinton and Larry works for the U.S. Post Office. Justin and Cindy live in West Valley. They have 2 girls and September of 2015 they had a little boy. Justin started his own logistics delivery service. They seem to be doing well. Krista and Eric moved to Clearfield and they now have 3 boys. Eric is a wiring consultant for companies that set up computer and internet services. The boys keep Krista busy. Ryan and Nicole moved to Layton. They have one little boy turning 6 and going to 1st grade this fall. Ryan started his own business and services Health companies and hospitals. Brandon and Amy moved to Roy. They just had their 3rd child - a boy, Baby Brandon Randal. They keep Amy hopping. My Dad and Father-in-law passed away in 2012 and 2013. We miss them so much. Aaron still works for Century Link and ready to retire. I moved from teaching to being a Math Coach for 6 years and now I am stationed at Davis District working on the new Advantage Math Curriculum. We are very happy.
