Just catching up for February and the start of March. Kevin just had is 47th birthday on the 2nd of March.
Brayden is now a zone leader in San Luis and felt the Chilean earthquake. He was woken up in the middle of the night and said it felt like a 6.6. No damage though and all of the people in his area are doing well.
Chaz did the halftime show at the Jazz game with the Jazz girls. They liked the boys so much that they are going to have them dance with them again during a playoff game.
Brooklynn is in the middle of her club volleyball season and is playing really well.
Kenedee just brought home her report card and had all A's and one B. Way to go Kenedee!!
I am just as busy as usual. We are looking forward to going to California for spring break and going to "Dancing With The Stars" to see my niece Ashly dance with Buzz Aldrin. I know that she will do great teaching him!! Go Ashly and Buzz!! We are also going to go up and visit Lisa and her family. I should be a fun week!

Catching Up January 2010


Sorry, it has been 4 months since I have posted on the blog. Brayden has been out in Argentina for 15 months now. Time flies. He is doing great and is going to be made a Zone Leader next transfer.
Chaz and Brock just got finished with the dance show "MOVE" at the Covey. It was a great show and Derek Hough, Mark Ballas, Chelsea Hightower, from "Dancing With The Stars" and Thayne Jesperson from "So You Think You Can Dance" were in the show with them. It was an awesome show and sold out most of the dates. I will include pictures with this post.
Chaz is in college at Utah Valley University and Brock is going to have his Associates Degree when he graduates next year. I will have 2 boys in college and Brock will be in the next fall. I am afraid of the cost with 3 in at the same time.
Brooklynn is playing competition volleyball and doing great. Kenedee is playing rec. basketball and loving it.
We had a great holiday season spending time with family and friends.
The preschools are both doing really well and full. Students are already signing up for next year. I love my job.
Kevin is loving the company he is working for. They are very family friendly and are doing really well in this economy.
I love that Vic is going through the family history and posting stories of our famous relatives. It is really cool to find out about our ancestors.
I will try to do better at keeping up the blog.

Brayden went into the MTC on Oct. 22nd. He has been in 3 weeks now and is already a Zone Leader over 5 districts with his other 2 companions. He has 2 because one of the missionaries in his room had to go home. Anyways, he is doing great. Christian got to see him yesterday when he took his cousin into the MTC. He said that he looks good and said he is really busy. He and his companions have to preside at all the meetings that they have in the MTC. Here are some pictures the day he went into the MTC. I will try to put some of his letters on so you can keep up with what he is doing.

Brayden's Farewell

We had a great time at Brayden's farewell. He did a great job on his talk and our neighbor, James Smith, put together mission songs for the piano. He played, "I hope they call me on a mission and Called to Serve". It was amazing. We had a luncheon after wards that was great. All of my family and friends helped out and it was great food. My friend Linda made an amazing cake to look like an old book of scriptures and the temple. Brayden was so happy that so many people came or called to see him off. He can't wait to go into the MTC on Wednesday. This is a great week and a sad one, all together.

Brayden's Farewell

I can't believe it is already here. Brayden's farewell is Sunday, Oct. 19th. He goes into the MTC on the 22nd. He is ready to go and is getting his patriarchal blessing tonight. I am glad that he will be in the MTC here in Provo for 9 weeks. It gives me time to get used to the idea of having him so far away. I hope you all can make it to his farewell.

Family Pictures

We went up to Timp Cave and took family pictures. I threatened all my kids with their lives if they did not smile so we could get a good picture for the first time in our lives with Brayden before he leaves on his mission. We actually did it. There are still such things as miracles.
