Fall Stuff

Well, October is flying by. We started out with General Conference. We hung out at home on Saturday, listening to the sessions. That night, Kory took the boys to Priesthood Session--Caleb's first. Afterwards they ate at Freddys.

Meanwhile, I took Chloe and Morgan to Sugar City to visit with  Dave, Kelley, and the kids. Kristi and some of her kids were there too. We ended up playing a few games like Apples to Apples and Old Maid. We stopped and ate at Dairy Queen. On Sunday, we went up to Victor for dinner in between sessions, and watched the afternoon session there. After a few four-wheeler rides, we headed home.




The next weekend, we got to see Isaac run at Madison and take first place. Ellie has also been picking up speed and she placed in the top 20 for JV and got a medal. Mom and Dad were there too to see their grandkids run.





Phoebe has been getting ready to try out for basketball, so for Family Night, we went and shot hoops at the high school. Our neighbor is one of the coaches and he let us in the gym and gave Phoebe some pointers.



Phoebe also got to dress up in a formal for her Young Women in Excellence night. Here are some shots with her dad.






And finally, here's Kory with Chloe in the bus-watching chair, one morning before school. Sweet.

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...
