Nauvoo Temple with the Jordan Family

Today was a wonderful day!  We left at around 6:30am this morning and drove down to Nauvoo.  Today was a big day for some friends, the Jordan Family.  Carla went through the temple for the first time and then the entire family (Sydney, Carla, and their 3 kids) were sealed together.  It was a very […]

Another One Down!

Late tonight, I finished the 2009 Hobbs Family Reunion DVD.  Fortunately it fits on 1 DVD and has not only the DVD movie content, but the full-sized photos of all the pictures in the show, a .WMV (Windows Streaming Media) movie file of the slide show, and 2 web albums (1 flash and 1 standard)!

Good Week and Seminary Kick-Off!

Liesurely Last Sunday and Sarah Returning Home!

Wow!  We can’t believe it!  This is the last Sunday that Carmen will be with us!  The time has gone so fast!  We don’t have any pictures today because we really didn’t do much outside of going to church.  As usual, I got up early for all my early morning meetings.  Everyone else got up

Park, Library, Shopping, and Badminton!

Today was a pretty busy day for everyone.  Carmen ate birthday cake for breakfast!  🙂  That sounds like something I would do!  While I was at work, Angela took the kids to the park to play and then to the library.  They had a lot of fun.  Ben’s favorite things to do are to swing

Relaxing and Uneventful Sunday…

Today was fairly relaxing for everyone.  We were all very tired from a late night last night again and so we needed the down time.  I had my usual morning of church-related meetings but other than that, the morning was fairly uneventful.  Sarah also called from Utah and said that she was doing very well.

Bowling, Shopping, and Tie Dye!

We had a day today that was loaded with activities!  It kept us very busy.  I worked from home today and got a lot accomplished.  After a wonderful breakfast from Angela of blueberry pancakes,  Brittany went to her last track practice.  Her last meet is tomorrow.  She has been doing very well and we’re proud

Relaxing and Fun Sunday!

Today was a lot less hectic than yesterday. I still had all my early Sunday meetings at the church, but it was nice not having to be anywhere specific after that. Church went very well, although it is very hard for Carmen to follow much of what is going on. Everyone speaks so fast for

All Back Together Again!

This morning after an OK night’s sleep, got up early and walked around the camp. There is some beautiful scenery that I was able to get some pictures of. After waiting for all the girls to get up, I helped get Sarah and Brittany packed up and we left camp and came home. I ended

Birthday’s Church, and Ribfest

Today was also quite a busy day for all of us! Zachary turned 5 today and he is now a “big boy” like his dad. 🙂 We opened his birthday presents this morning and he loved all of them. He got a slip and slide, a digital camera, a stuffed animal, some cash, and more.
