So much has been going on. It is so hard to keep up. We lost another neighbor two weeks ago. The two little ones were close with Monte. He was a very nice and polite man. He was so generous and loved to help every one. He will be greatly missed. So now that my family has had two deaths very close to us in a matter of a two week period this has been the perfect time to talk and reflect on the love of family and the after life and how important it is to live everyday to the fullest and never have regrets. My family seems to have grown closer in the last few weeks. I love my family could not have asked for a more amazing kids and husbands. We love that we have been able to talk more about the plan of Salvation and how our life here on this earth is for such a short time. As the holidays soon approach us let us not ever forget the love of family.
Okay onto updates. I started sub teaching and love it. Okay I have only done it once so far. But that one time was great. Dani is little Miss popular. She got asked to both Maple Mountain (that is the new high school that just opened ) and Springville's homecoming. She was so excited and loved both nights. Here she is Ethan Wolz. Her Springville date. And here is her date for the Maple Mountain Homecoming Matt Comer.
Austin was very sick for week. Missed school and football. But he is back and at his first game back he scored a touchdown. Only a few more games. I am going to miss those games. But just a few months and track starts.
Baylie got the same sickness. So she missed some school too. She is busy babysitting and being a great cheerleader. She wants to be at every game and every performance of Dani's. She loves to be involved in everything.
Coop just finished the soccer season and is not so patiently waiting for wrestling to start.
Bryan is getting slower in the work area. So if any one knows of any jobs. Just holler:)
Just a few notes about our everyday activities. Check out the new pictures on the side as well. They are smaller but still cute. Since they are my kids. haha!

She will be missed dearly.

This past week we lost a dear friend. Tauna Blackburn died of complications due to diabetes. She was such an amazing friend. We first started hanging out after we moved into the ward. We also had so much fun at the cabin and going out to dinner. Anytime there was trip planned either she or Chad called to invite us. We were privileged enough to be one of the first ones to know that two amazing spirits were about to enter into her and Chad's life. Her parents are wonderful an treated my kids like grandchildren until the year that their family was blessed with a bunch of grandchildren of their own. Tauna and I got to serve in many callings together. We were team teachers in Sunbeams and then again we were teaming together in Activity days. I will miss her so much. She was so talented and every time we talked there seemed to be a new talent that I found out she had. She leave behind the most adorable little boy and girl and a wonderful husband. All of this has been hard on my kids and it has been a real teaching tool on the plan of salvation and on eternal life. Time is to precious and short. Live life everyday and to the fullest.
