I attended the Rexburg Temle
Dear family,
Last Fri I had the opportunity to attend the Rexburg temple, it was very beautiful. Then Next Sat. I will be able to go with you all to the Draper Temple openhouse--I'm really looking forward to that, then the following Fri dad and I get to do Sealings in the Jordan temple. Hayley gets to go to the Provo temple weekkly--which I know is a blessing in her life. I hope you are all feeling the blessings of the temple, it brings so much peace to our lives--for those of you that live close enough for me to tend--I will tend anytime you need me to--if it helps you to get there. Dad and I will be celebrating our 30rd anniversary on Feb 16th...maybe we could start a tradition of attending together somewhere around that day (as a family). dad and I will be going anyhow--so come join in if you want.
the Temple truely has blessed my life.

a chair to test out
Hi family, the physical therapist dropped a "practice" or "trial" type chair by so the family took her to the church to try it out. she caught on right away--how to use it--thought you might have already seen it--but wanted to post it --she seemed happy to move about. what a sweetheart she is.

Irma Call--update
Hi family
hopefully you've been getting some of the news of hayley as I forward it on--I decided to blog a quick post in case extended family and friends like an update
Irma Call is doing fabulous--she is enjoying the MTC but also enjoyed getting out last Fri--for a break--to attend the temple--she wrote a birthday card to dad and bore her testimony at the end of the card (in Portuguese)
she was also able to see and talk with the wilsons from our stake a couple missionary--they came home for the weekend--and stop by to report that she looks great and seems very happy there.
well she wrote a letter and answered lots of our questions--she is eating well, sleeping well and enjoyed hearing from Elder Holland last week.
I think she sounds good don't you? yes--I really do---let's analyze that do death like I did with you brad and bryan- & Brianne and stephen when you were serving--I'd say--that quite a bit
(: mom

Happy Birthday Dad ( this week) Sunday
Hi family-
just a reminder to give dad a phone call--or send lots of$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ in the mail for him- I'm sure he'll appreciate either one--or love notes....you know the drill...I'm writing this today just in case you read it you should have just enough time to get the $ or love notes here by mail (should you choose that option) (: He'll be home from meetings by 5 or 6 PM that night and one time breifly inbetween--I won't pick up if you call--just leave messages for him on the answer machine K/?
.I just want to make a post saying how happy we all are that he was born Jan 18, and how glad we are that he has been there to influence all of us. I've celebrated many birthdays with dad--counting the one when I called him at midnight when I was 16 I guess around 34 or so of them. I feel an overwhelming gratitude for him. raising you kids side by side with him has been a dream come true. Celebrating the life of someone is one of my most favorite "holidays" and dad's life is one that surely should be celebrated--"he's done a lot of good for a lot of people"--
some fun facts about when dad was born: (it would be more fun if we were all out to dinner and eating out to re-cap this--but lets give the blog a try)--
*he was born in the Heber City Hospital
*he had lots of black hair and so cute -cute --cute
* he had his dad there for this delivery to see him born (the only one out of 8 grandpa saw )
*he was only at his home for less than one year before his dad and mom moved to a new house (it wasn't long before he found them though)
*He was the fifth of eight children
*He had a wonderful and caring mom and dad--
so let's hear a big shout out for dad---and though we'll be scattered here and there (MTC, Virgina, Spanish fork and Mexico, and SLC) pause a moment that day and sing...This little boy had a birthday --this one sitting here...... Father in Heaven bless him --throughout the coming year!!!!!!!
Happy Birthday to you...Happy Birthday to you--Happy Birthday dear Dad......Happy Birthday to you...
