Halloween 2018

Chloe had her first 7th grade choir concert, so that was fun to go and watch. 




We've been trying to take the kids to do baptisms as often as we can, so here's a little photo before. We decided it might be time to get Caleb a suit so he didn't look like a ragamuffin. He's looking all grown up and 15.


We went to the ward Trunk or Treat and the kids came although they definitely thought they were too old for it. Chloe was an M&M with her friends and Morgan was Mario from the Mario Cart video game.



Caleb has so many different costumes in his closet that he can pretty much take his pick, but he decided to focus on some of his Goosebumps masks.

We had our annual FHE to carve pumpkins. Kenzie and Ryker joined us--and we were also kind of celebrating Ryker's birthday at the same time. This year only Chloe carved and the rest chose to paint their pumpkins.





Halloween night turned out to be really cold, so Morgan was the only one who went trick or treating.

Morgan, our oldest grandchild, is now ten! Hard to believe. She is such an amazing kid. She asked for a pistachio cake, so the best I could find was pistachio muffins. We put candles in the muffins and it worked.

Here she is showing off some of her presents! We sure to do love her!

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...
