Happy Birthday Zach!!! Big number 9! We hope you have a GREAT one! Today we got up early and took off on the next leg of our journey… Four Corners and Grand Canyon. The Four Corners area was neat but it was SO touristy! The area is on Native American land and the whole area […]
Today we started our Family Vacation down through Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, California (Hobbs Reunion) and back! We left early and kept our fingers crossed that we could make it down to Durango, CO with no problem. There have been incredibly bad and huge forest fires down there and they just opened the road. When
Today the girls went to see X-Factor up in Denver. They were SO excited to see Simon Cowell and the crew. They had a blast and really enjoyed watching all the performances (some WAY better than others). 🙂 After they got home, we went over to the Liddell’s for dinner and Family Home Evening. We
On Friday we left to drive out to Utah to go to Aunt Mary’s funeral. It was a quick trip, and we were back on Sunday afternoon. The services were nice and it is so comforting to have the knowledge of the Plan of Salvation that we do. All the family was there, and we
We just found out that Aunt Mary (Grandma B.’s sister) passed away today. She had taken a sudden turn for the worse, after being healthy and walking every day, sweeping sidewalks, etc. The funeral is on Saturday and so we’re going to drive to Bountiful then and support the family.
Today, Kirstyn babysat for some friends of ours in the ward. They are ranchers, and Kirstyn had to move one of the steers from one place to another for some reason. We didn’t see it, but it was absolutely hilarious to think of Kirstyn, our TOTAL city girl, pulling a stubborn steer across the yard
Sarah flew out to California today! We were able to talk to her for about 30 minutes when she got to the airport! We are so proud of her and for her decision to serve the Lord on a mission! This time, I didn’t fall apart like I did when she left to go to
Today, Brittany threw a birthday party for herself! She had about 15 friends over and they had a great time! It’s great that she’s making some good friends out here. They played all sorts of games (inside and out), and had a blast! They ate cupcakes, drank pop, and opened presents! We took lots of
Today, after a day of cleaning house and shopping, Angela and I attended a housewarming party in Aurora for Matt Coupas and his family. Matt is the local IT guy in the Denver office and I’ve worked with him for awhile now. It was good to see him. We were hoping that more of the
Tonight we were planning on going camping (Devil’s Head) and had everything packed and ready to go. When we got in the van to leave, it wouldn’t turn over (hopefully battery and not alternator)! What a bummer! 🙁 What’s crazy, is that it turned out for the best. Right after that, it started to lightning,
Today, Kirstyn went up to the temple and did baptisms with a bunch of the young women. During the summer, they have the temple open for youth baptisms between 11 and 4 or something like that for anyone to come in and do the work. So far, the response has been overwhelming and they expect
