Kaitlan's BYU graduation 2013

Kaitlan graduated from BYU in April 2013 with a degree in Public Health. We are so proud of her and David. David will graduate in April 2014 with an Exericse Science degree. Todd and I and Kortneigh and Bree traveled down for the graduation. Bree was 8 weeks old and traveled down like a champ. The way back to Washington was a little more difficult on her. It was a fun weekend.

She did it! Kaitlan graduated from BYU with a degree in Public Health

CHS Track

Karigan had a great season in Track. She made it to districts in the Javelin and Shot and made it to State in the shot. She had lots of help making in there from CHS coaches, and good friends Coach Mackay and T. Brook.

Spring Break

We spent spring break at the cabin. It was beautiful weather with snow still on the ground. Shayne had double jaw surgery so he and Kortneigh and Bree couldn't come with us.

 

Sand Hill Cranes

We had cows on our farm over the winter grazing on the corn that had been planted then harvested. They were a pain because they were always getting out and found their way to our yard and their owner didn't seem to care...Anyway, after the cows were gone I noticed that there was something else out there grazing. They were huge and looked like sheep far away, until one flew up.  haha  After a few days of research and inquiry, we found they were sandhill cranes. They enjoyed the corn for weeks :)

Easter 2013

We had a lovely Easter. We are so grateful for Jesus Christ; his life, ministry, resurrection and atonement for each of us. Easter morning we woke up early before church to find that the Easter Bunny had found our nests,filled our baskets and hid plastic eggs filled with candy and money all over the yard! We went to church and then to Aunt Jan's for dinner with her family. It was so nice of them to invite us. From their we went to Tennelle's house for the annual Edler egg hunt and dinner. We had the truck loaded with four wheelers and headed for the cabin for a few days for spring break with a few friends.
