After all the partying and events over the last few days, we are all beat! That said, we decided to stay a day longer, rest, and do nothing. We all got our hair cut from Carla and Ben got a buzz cut. It is really cute, but it’s really weird to see him with no […]
Today, Mark gave his homecoming talk at church, which was wonderful. As part of the program, all the kids and grand-kids got up on the stand and sang Called to Serve in Spanish! 😐 It was crazy! What also was very interesting is that the speaker that spoke with Mark had a family visiting him
Today was Zach’s big baptism day. He has been looking forward to this day for a long time and couldn’t wait! He got up really early and wanted to know if it was time yet! 🙂 We had to laugh about that one. We hope he is that excited to be good all the time
Today was a really busy party day as well! Salmon had their Salmon River Days 4th of July parade today so we went to that. It was pretty busy, and at this time of the year, I swear, the town doubles in size. 🙂 The parade was fun to watch. It’s a very small town
Today was Zach’s big eighth birthday! Happy Birthday little man!!! Zach’s morning started off with a cinnamon roll with candles from Grandma. He laughed when he saw it. Grandmas like to do things like that! 🙂 He then opened all his presents and really liked that. He got his first set of “big boy” scriptures
Today we left North Ogden and traveled up to Salmon Idaho. Brittany drove most of the way which was GREAT! She’s racking up the hours so she can get her license! 🙂 When we got to Salmon, we had a relaxing afternoon (at least for most of us)! 🙂 Some never relax and are always
Today was crazy busy! We started off the day making our way down to Salt Lake City, visiting my uncle Marv along the way. He hasn’t been doing so well lately and is pretty sick. It was nice to see the family. We haven’t seen them in probably 12 years. That’s one of the drawbacks
Today we had a relaxing day in North Ogden. We were pretty tired from our travels and the last couple of days in the Denver area, so it was nice to relax. We all went and saw the movie Brave, came back and kicked back and ended the day with a family back yard BBQ.
Today we got up and attended church today at the Liddell’s ward. I purposefully wore a colored shirt to church becuase I could, and Terry Liddell laughed when he saw me. He asked me if it was rebellion Sunday, to which I agreed! 🙂 Their ward was nice although about half the ward was gone
Today we got up early (some probably due to the time change) and got a start on a busy but very fun day. We toured all through Castle Rock and saw about everything you could see. We really like it here, especially the weather (dry but not too hot). There is a huge fire burning
Today we left for our summer vacation/family reunion/baptism event/college prep trip. 🙂 We decided to leave a couple days earlier and today, we started off early and drove to Denver. We will be staying until Sunday afternoon with the Liddell family, our friends from the Naperville 2nd Ward who moved to Denver back in February.
Well, EFY is now over and I drove down to Normal IL to pick up Brittany and some other folks that went down. That’s one of my favorite things to do. It’s great driving back home listening to all the fun stories and such from the kids. 🙂 The only thing I don’t like is
