Fall Fun

Well, we're back in school and things are full steam ahead, so I have a bit to catch up on. Leah and Andy came to visit for a few weeks and we were so happy when we got to see them!


Chloe likes to play with her hair and do goofy things. It used to reach past her waist, but she trimmed about ten inches off.




Kory took the kids to do baptisms as a back-to-school activity.

Morgan is too young to do baptisms, so I took her to Panera--her choice. She is an unusually healthy eater for a little kid.

Chloe survived back to school night with Kory and I--even figured out how to open her locker and everything.



First day of school for our 7th grader and 9th grader and Kory's first day teaching at Skyline High School Seminary. He is loving having Phoebe and Caleb in one of his seminary classes.




Morgan is in 4th grade this year and is doing the Gifted and Talented program. We're proud of her.

Phoebe is a Senior this year! Crazy!

Caleb has been enjoying cross country and it's also fun to see my niece Ainsley run at these races.



 Caleb at Soda Springs. We went to Lava Hot Springs on the way home and sat in the hot pools. 

Kory and I caught some of Abby's soccer game. She made Varsity as a sophomore and we're really proud of her.
 Last year Kory and I did half of the Tetonia to Ashton Rail Trail, so we decided to finish it this year, starting in Lamont and ending in Ashton. It was a beautiful day and a great ride. We can't wait to do it again.




We celebrated with food at The Royal Wolf in Driggs.
 As part of the back to school festivities for BYUI we did a faculty float near Palisades. It was a fun couple of hours.


Family night at Reed's Dairy.

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
