Chuck-a-Grandpa

Well, Kory's dad is back in the area. He usually spends his winters in St. George, so we're always happy when he comes back this way. He took us all out to Chukorama one night. 

 Saturday we juggled lots of things. The kids went to a baptism on their mom's side, Kory sang at a funeral, I cleaned and watched Ryker. Everyone got home and Kory mowed the lawn, Phoebe got ready for her Prom date. Last week she went to Hillcrest's prom and this week she went to Skyline's. They paint-balled for their day date. Luckily one of the moms had a nice camera and got some great group photos.


After we got Phoebe out the door, Kory and I loaded Chloe and Caleb up and took them to Cress Creek to hike. Chloe fell asleep on the way. We stopped at Heise to get some pizza and it was super crowded, but we still managed to get up on the trail to watch a pretty sunset.





I was surprised to get a text from my brother Nathan with some pics of Isaac out on his mission in Michigan. I guess Dawn's brother lives in one of the wards in Isaac's area and the missionaries were singing at the baptism there. Funny, small world!

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...
