February Fun

January and February are always slow picture months for me, but here a few little snapshots. One night Kory took Caleb to watch an improv group at BYU-Idaho. Caleb loves watching stand-up and sketch comedy and has even performed some for the Primary talent show. He loved this show so much he waited in line to meet the performers. 


Chloe did a great FHE lesson on pornography and online safety but wanted to round out the evening with some good old-fashioned sack races.


Kory, Chloe, and I got some take-out to share with Austin and Leah and Andy one night. We had fun watching Andy show off her wobbly walking and knocking down blocks while watching Moana. Such a cute little family.


Chloe went to a fun Olympics Opening Ceremonies party at her friend Mia's house. She even got a gold medal!

Phoebe volunteered Kory to make dinner for her group for the Sweetheart Ball. Kory made his usual Sunday dinner and Lynette and Monica provided salad, rolls, and dessert. Phoebe's the one at the top with the dark hair, if you didn't recognize her. She said she wanted a change, so she went to the dark side.

  1. It’s nice to get up-dates on you guys, too! Boy, that is no fun playing catch-up. I am going to try to stay on top of it now that we are finally feeling settled!

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
