I haven't posted in a long time. I am in Utah right now. I have spent 3 weeks here over the last month. We have had a lot going on in my family. Some good some not so good. My Step father Paul passed away in January. He was an amazing man. He loved my mom more then life it's self. I will miss him every day. I have some pictures from that time posted here as well as some of my brother Clay's missionary farewell. We took him to the MTC today. That was really hard. One of his best friends(Dallin) went in today as well. We were relieved by that, so we didn't have to send him away all alone. I will miss him so much. It's funny how life can change so quickly. There is no denying that there is a plan for each of us. I wanted to thank so many friends for all their support during this time. You have been great to me. My family has appreciated all of your support as well.

I am so sorry to hear about your step father. I hope your mother and family are doing well. It is amazing how quickly things can change. We will remember your family in our prayers.
I am so sorry about your stepfather. I'm glad you have been able to be with family. It's really hard to lose someone so close, and I'm thinking about you. Also, I remember when we took little Jeffy to the MTC. It was hard to see him go, but it went by so quickly! Good luck to your little brother. You look so much like your Mom.
I'm sorry to hear of Paul's passing. That's tough. I hope your family, especially your mom, is doing okay. I know your brother's service will bring added blessings to his life and all of your lives. That's what makes sending them away worth it. Good luck to him.
It was so good to see you at the farewell! Clay made me cry when he read the peom he wrote about your Mom. She is such an inspiration! Clay is so dang cute, too! We love you guys and wish we could all hang out more often.
Hey it was good to see you guys I wish we could have visited more but thats ok I hope everything went well on wed. Im glad your back home safe. call me when you settle back down!!
Hey Kristine! I was so sad to hear about Paul, I hope you and your family are doing good!
I can't believe Clay is old enough to go one a mission...its been ages since I last saw him!
And I wanted to let you know that Brandy and her family are going to be visiting here for a week...April 12-April 18...and we are going to be going to the Great Wolf Lodge on April 15. You are more than welcome to come with us, or visit when ever you want!
Hope you guys are doing good!
I am just now getting back into my online life, and only a month late to read your post. (slow computer attached to a slow mind isn't good combo). What a great post! You do have a great family. You've been through it this year. It's good to know you will be blessed through all this. That Clay couldn't be a cuter little bro. I can't wait to see you guys again soon-ish in June. Hope you are feeling better than when we last spoke!
