Today Kirstyn got signed-up to go to EFY at BYU Provo! Turns out they are not doing the stay-at-home EFY like they did last year and in years past due to lack of participation, so we had to find another place. She is SO excited to go (first week of June) and will be going […]
Today was one busy day! This morning, we had a Primary Ice Cream Social at the church for all the kids who had worked really hard on memorizing their Articles of Faith. Ben and Zach got to go and they got all sugared-up for the rest of the day. Right after that, I took them
Happy birthday Kirstyn! It’s hard to believe your big 15! One more year to driving! 😐 We celebrated opening presents in the morning and then this afternoon quickly with the dinner of her choice. The girls and Angela then had to run to the church to New Beginnings. I stayed with the boys. Hope your
Today was a busy but FUN one! Zach had the Pinewood Derby first thing this morning and he was so excited! We worked hard on his car and were hoping that it was faster than last year. 🙂 I really don’t like the Pinewood Derby because someone always goes away crying, etc. This year was
Today, Dad and Mom Hobbs went to MTC! They’ll be there for about a week or so and then take off for the Philippines, Angeles Mission. I also found out yesterday that our old Stake President (President Scott Clark) just got called as a mission president and that he will be Mom and Dad’s new
Today I got up early and went to the church for meetings. It was totally awesome! It was so exciting to see everyone and catch up! I didn’t make it to Sunday School because everyone wanted to chat and then, when the Naper 3rd ward came in they all wanted to talk as well! 🙂
Today we had our Christmas theme Sacrament Meeting at church. The choir sung beautifully and Brittany and Kirstyn got to sing a duet together. They did a GREAT job and we’re so proud of them!
Tonight we went caroling as a ward. We met at the Red Hawk golf club and then drove around to care homes for the elderly in the area and sang to them. It was fun and the kids really had a great time. We had about 30 or so people there. The elderly had fun
This morning the girls, Ben and I went to the Ward Christmas Breakfast and had a great time! During the night, Zach woke up sick and throwing up, so Angela stayed home with him. From the Facebook posts and everything about Ben, he was quite the celebrity this morning. Everyone wanted to know how he
Today we got up REALLY early in Salmon and left (5:30am) to drive down to Rexburg for the blessing of Mark and Jocelyn’s baby Paxton. Leaving that early from Salmon requires everyone to keep on the lookout for deer and elk darting out in the middle of the road. It is somewhat nerve-racking as in
Today, Angela, Brittany, and Kirstyn got up early (after not much sleep) and drove up to Utah State University in Logan for a campus tour. Brittany was really excited and is leaning toward USU right now for school. They had a great time there while the boys and I slept in and then relaxed for
Today the new church building was dedicated. It was a wonderful service and it was very interesting to hear how the church has grown in our area. Not too many years ago it was one ward, and now we have a stake and 12 wards! Amazing!
