SPRING!


Where does the time go?

March is almost over and here I am trying to figure out where the month has gone. So many things have happened that I don't know where to start. So I'll Start with James and go from there.

James- James has been busy with work and ACBA and GCSCC and with Stake audits. February and March are audit times for the church and he stays busy with making sure all the wards in our stake get audited. He also is one of the advisors in the teachers quorum. When people ask how many jobs he has I tell them I've lost count! :)

Dennis- Dennis is working for Harkins Theatre and trying to get all the hours he can! He is still in his Elders quorum presidency and sings in the Singles choir. He is working hard and I see little of him!

Katlyn- Katlyn is no longer living at home. Yesterday we helped her move all her things to Rayalee's house, she will be there to help Rayalee and Jon when the twins come. She may be working part time for the Bank of America out by their house. Keep her in your prayers!

Andrew- Andrew has been spending his spring break playing on the computer with his brothers and driving his mom crazy! (I think he likes the crazy part!) :) Tomorrow he starts back to school for the last nine weeks! Like I said 'Where has the time gone!?' He is growing up more all the time!

Braden- has been 'BORED' during spring break, all his friends have been out of town and there are no good books left in the house to read! (I wonder what those things are sitting on all those bookshelves?) He has played on the computer as well and I hope to start seeing his face again soon! He also starts back to school tomorrow and I think he will be glad to get back to school! (?)

Rayalee & Jon- Rayalee and Jon are gearing up for the arrival of the twins! They now have twin beds for both the girls and two cribs for the babies. Still don't know the genders of the babies, they would not cooperate at the last ultrasound. Tomorrow she goes in for a 3d ultrasound maybe they won't be so shy? :)

Brooklyn- Brooklyn is growing cuter all the time. Yesterday when we were done bringing all of Katlyn's things over and we were getting ready to leave, she panicked. She thought that we were going to take Aunt Katlyn with us and she was MAD! This shall be interesting?

Hailee- Hailee will be one next month! She is growing sooo fast! She is walking around all the furniture and climbing up on everything! She is a smiley girl with the cutiest faces! She will even come to Grandma without being coaxed!

Kevin- Kevin is doing well! He is still in the mission office and thinks that this will be his last transfer there. The others that are there now are calling him the 'office dinosaur' because he has been there longer then any one. he loves his mission and loves being in Brazil.

ME- life has had it's moments this past month, with Aunt Doris passing, I've had time to think about family and how greatful I am for the gospel of Jesus Christ! I am thankful for the plan of happiness and the knowledge that if I repent and come unto Christ, I will have an oppertunity to see Him again! I've also thought alot about my dad and the things that I have learned through his example! I know that he also had (and still has) a testimony of Jesus Christ and His atonement. I learned that it's okay to fight for what you think is right. I miss him! It's hard to believe that it has been five years since he died!


Well that sums up part of what has been happening in our lives!
