Back to School. Be more obedient and kind. Protect your testimony!

SCHOOL STARTED YEAH!!!!!

We are all excited to be back to school.  Miriah was the most excited since she got in Mrs. Asay's class.  We are all going to have a great year.  Will have to update this post since I can't get the back to school pictures off the camera.  Good thing Marrianne Asay took one of Miriah in class and sent it to me.

 Brady's Birthday was on Sunday, but he still sent me flowers to work on Monday, by special delivery.  Bronson brought them in to my new office.

A couple of my favorite workers at the county club, Sydney and Hailey. 

 Brody and Sadie had their engagement pictures taken here a a few of them.  They are beautiful!

 They went to Cottenwood Canyon

 Mrs. Asay has a Instagram where she post pictures of the kids, and Miriah is in the bottom left.

Rachael, Zach, and Grant all spoke in church today.  I also went to hear Camri Richey speak, she did a great job, and will be a powerful missionary.  Rachael did a really good job, hope Braxton you will have time to listen to it.  Last night at the Stake Fireside, Braden Bromley quoted Zach in his talk, so I know he did a really good job, wish I was better at remembering and being able to share it with you.  So much touch me yesterday during all the meetings.  Rachael talked a lot about the missionary work and how sometime we never see the good we have done or the influence we might have been apart of without even knowing we were.  Reminded me of grandpa's story and the you can count the seeds in an apple, but you can't count the apples in a seed.

Be more obedient and kind.  Protect your testimony,  what steps do you need to take to make sure you have the protection you need.

We were able to face time with Jason and his mom Sonja yesterday, they are in France which is 8 hours a head of us here in Utah, it was fun to get to see them and talk with them.  They are so happy, it made me happy to listen to them.  All the kids are really excited to meet them in person.  We are keeping our fingers crossed it all works out and they come soon.

Love you all and hope that you have a safe week.

August 22, 2015 Lots of BIG Things Happening this week.

It was another busy week.  I took a little time from work on Monday to take the kids up to the Peterson's to swim, Brayden was here and he and Miriah had a fun time playing tag together.

 Hollie swam for a while with them, but tried to stay in touch with someone on snap chat,  It was a kind of over cast day so we didn't get much sun.

 Grandpa built Warren a selling stand, so we had to go by and buy something.

Britton went with the Teachers to hike the backside of Timp.

 They left at 12:30 AM,  Britton had not been to sleep since the when he got up on Monday morning.  He was so excited to go and have the experience.  

He made it to the top.  I guess they got off track for a couple of hours, but made it back on course and to the top.

 Britton had a great time, but says he is never doing it again.

 He came home and got a couple of hours of rest before he had to go play a soccer game, and straight from the game, he had football practice.  He was one tired boy, and his legs hurt.  But he did it!

 Big Event Number One of the Week.  

Brody and Sadie got ENGAGED!

He had tried to do it a couple of times and it just had not worked out, and still this night didn't go really as planned but it happened and everyone is really excited.

 Hollie, Brady and Crystal were hiding in the trees trying to get picture,s but Brody didn't really know where they were, so he didn't get close enough to them.

Congratulations to Brody and Sadie!

 Beautiful Ring!

 The RING!

 We even got to Skype with Braxton and his mission president.  So fun for us to have him be a part of it, and to get to see him for a few minutes.

 I forgot to get pictures of all the friends, when I started to get pictures Ditti was the only friend still at the house.

Happy Birthday to Brady  Big 25  WE love you so much and are so grateful for your example to all of the younger siblings.  He and Crystal brought stuff to make Homemade Ice cream.

After the Bithday dinner Dad gave everyone their back to school blessings,  Grandpa and Grandma stayed for the blessings.  After dad was done, Grandpa gave dad a blessing.  It was a spiritual night and very tender, Grandma was so proud of her little boy.
