Where has the time gone???

This year has gone by so fast it's amazing to realize it's already September! We have had a busy and exciting year so far. Our 5th grand child Harrison (Mike & Jessica) was born in February, followed by our 6th grand child Jacob (Whitney & Cody) in July.

Mike graduated with his MBA degree from OSU and Eric received his associate’s degree from the Salt Lake Community College. Eric was accepted into the University of Utah for the Fall semester and became engaged to Sarah Allred in July! Happy Birthday Eric!!! They will be getting married in the Salt Lake temple this Fall.

Our youngest, Stephen completed an honorable mission in Kennewick, Washington -Spanish speaking and we were able to go with Eric to pick him up and tour his mission in August. He was only home for two weeks and is now back at BYU attending classes, watching Cougar Football, women's Soccer, and hanging out with old friends. Life is good!

It has been especially wonderful to have our daughter Whitney and her husband Cody near by as they've welcomed their sweet little boy into their family and getting to watch them evolve as wonderful and extremely competant and confident parents. I can't wait until we get to see the rest of our grandkids this fall. There 's nothing better than being parents ...except for maybe being grandparents!

My greatest joy comes from seeing the happiness, success and accomplishments of our children and grand children. Well done everyone ...well done!
