Trips 'n Stuff

Lately I've been asked to do some speaking assignments either with Kory or I get asked and make Kory do it with me. It's definitely less stressful when we do it together. So, last week we went to Rock Creek and spoke at a Girl's Camp. We got up there a little early so we took a drive to Cave Falls. The wildflowers were beautiful.





A couple of days later, Kory and I headed down to Utah for his nephew's wedding. We got to Salt Lake in time for the ceremony in the temple. After that we hung out with family and chilled until the reception that night in South Jordan. The reception was in the bride's beautiful backyard. Kory and I enjoyed dancing together for the first time when they had dancing. Then things got really crazy when Kory's sister started throwing people in the pool. Luckily, we both stayed dry.











The next day Kory went golfing with his family and I hung out with some old friends. That night Kory did a fireside for a few wards, and I sang along on two of the songs. On Saturday we went shopping for house stuff, but we got burnt out pretty quick and headed back to Idaho. It was a fun little getaway, just the two of us. Love Kory so much.

Pie Face

Chloe had her tenth birthday and she asked for the game Pie Face. Yep, you've seen it. The one where everyone takes turns getting whipped cream in the face. Here are some precious moments. Chloe also got a little fort-making kit for her birthday, so we've had these structures in the family room for a few weeks now.

Kory's Story

I just wanted to record this for our family history. When Kory and I were engaged, we went to Salt Lake to talk with someone at CES to see about re-applying to teach seminary. At the time, they indicated that he could re-apply, but they didn't seem positive about the likelihood of him getting re-hired. At that time, we decided not to pursue teaching again. Later that year, CES announced that there was no longer any block on people who had been divorced teaching seminary. Again, we talked with some people, but still felt that the chances of him getting hired were not good, because he would not be able to move if necessary, which is usually the case with new hires.  In Fall of 2015, Kory had a strong impression to check with the pre-service director and see what he would need to do to try teaching again. We still knew that the chances were not great, but he felt that he should pursue it. He began attending the class for pre-service seminary teachers, and was assigned to student te...

April 2023

  April 2023 On April 1 and 2 we chilled and watched General Conference. On the first, we got a new cat to replace Todd. This cat’s name is Taco, she is a girl, and she’s a tortoiseshell calico. She and Binx have taken quite a while to warm up to each other, but I think we’ll get there. She is cuddly like Todd, so we all like that.  On April 4 I watched Season 3 of The Mandalorian with my dad. On the 5 th , Kory and I took Austin and Leah to the Bee’s Knees for a birthday dinner. They have really great food there and it was fun to visit.  On April 6, we had BYUI Graduation. It was fun to be there, since I’ve missed the past year due to my cancer. On the 7 th , Kory, me, and Caleb babysat for Austin and Leah. It was fun putting the kids to bed and singing with them. Stevie loves the song “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road,” so we sang that a bunch. On April 8, Kory and I went on a little date. We drove up to Driggs and had dinner at O’ Rourkes and then stopped and visited with m...
