Summer Is Winding Down

Summer is winding down. I know because we actually bought school supplies!! We enjoyed watching Ryker one day and took him on a walk down to a new little park in our neighborhood.

Because I don't like three kids talking to me at once, asking me if they can have things, I took them one at a time to Walmart to buy school supplies. When they asked why, I just said, "So I don't get irritated." Worked like a charm.

Summer means swimming, so we tried to fit in a few water days. I took the kids to the Aquatic Center one day.

On Friday, we got Kory and Austin's little family to come to Rexburg Rapids. Because it was a little cooler than it has been, it wasn't too crowded. The kids had so much fun we stayed until it closed at 8:00 p.m. It was a fun day and we took baby Andy into the lazy river and she liked it. Different parts of the park were closed three times because of fecal matter in the pool. OOoooh! It was kind of funny but I could tell the workers and managers were getting really irritated. Finally, the manager came around asking each person at the park if they had babies without liners on. Good times!

We heard from Elder Kunz today and it sounds like his first week in Michigan has been great. I'm so glad he's liking the work and the elders that he works with.

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
