Updates - Finally!



Daniel was cleared with the chest x-ray -(we all knew he didn't have TB anyway) He is halfway through his dental work and then he will have the wisdom teeth removed. The dentist (we have a new one who is awesome) already sent the papers to the bishop because he knows we are finishing the work. The bishop also has the medical papers. We just need to mark those two items on the papers and upload a photo and submit to the bishop (which we we do this weekend) we are on track for getting the interviews and submitting the papers by the end of April at latest. (he can officially submit April 19) Everyone is excited!

We have planned a family vacation for a week starting May 7. It will be Daniel's trip before he leaves (The one to Colorado last year was Nathan's) We will be going to Myrtle Beach SC. We are really looking forward to it.

In other news, Rob finished his work year in an awesome fashion. Out of over 200 reps in the country HE WAS NUMBER 5! We are very proud of him and he also was awarded the VPC (Vice Presidents Cabinet) award for the fourth time in his career! One of the things this means is that he gets to take me to Bermuda for a week - all paid for! If he can win two more times before he retires - he will be in the Hall of Fame! That has been one of his goals his whole career. We are very blessed in our lives and we know we owe everything to our Father in Heaven.

It will be different to have two missionaries out at the same time, but exciting. Nathan's trainer just came home to Bountiful about a week ago. We are waiting for a call from him because Nathan sent a camera card with him that has about 270 pictures on it along with some video. We can't wait to see it and share it with everyone. Nathan continues to serve in a joyful way and not be bothered by the small things like no running water. He still has some investigators who are progressing.

At the end of this semester Stephanie will take one class either on line or at the Salt Lake Center and provided she can get the three classes she needs in the fall, she will be graduating in December at the end of Fall semester - she is very excited to graduate. She has been writing with Ian on a friendly basis and he is doing very well and maturing nicely.

Cole and Jessica and Kyle are settled in their home and the family will get to go there for birthdays this month. Chris and Brittany are also settled and everything in their home has come together nicely. They are all very happy to have homes - every time Kyle comes back to his house he says "Oh, our house". he is very happy with his big backyard and with the recent nice weather so that he can go out. The last time it snowed his dad helped him make a snowman!\

We will try to keep updated on this blog a little better.
