Spring Break and Stuff

The kids have been on Spring Break for the last week. I had to stay home and work, but Kory and the kids went to St. George for a few days to spend time with family down there. Before he left, Caleb got his Orange Belt at karate.

We also began remodeling our kitchen, so we've been without appliances and sink for over a week. Kind of like camping, but we're excited for when it's done.

While I was here alone, I spent some time with my family. I took Ainsley to her DARE graduation. I also went to see Kami in the Madison Distinguished Young Woman program. My mom is her piano teacher, so they had been working on her talent, Revolutionary Etude, for a few months. We were so proud of how she did and she ended up earning an academic and talent award plus 4th runner up.

This weekend I went to the bridal shower of one of my young women from back in Sugar City. It was so fun to see a bunch of my former Laurel class there. Most of them have graduated from college or are finishing school and getting married. Love these girls !

Meanwhile, this is what my family was up to in St. George

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.

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 my parents on t

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
