Angela Speak in Church

Angela spoke today in our Ward and it was AWESOME!  She gave a GREAT and inspiring talk.  On the Illinois side of the house, Brittany went to church in our old Naperville 2nd Ward today.  Everyone was excited to see her and to talk to her about everything that has been going on in her life and in the life of our family.

We sure miss everyone out there in Illinois, but we wouldn’t trade our decision to move out to Colorado for anything.  It was the best thing for our family and we are seeing this.  🙂

Mormon Prom in Illinois

Brittany left yesterday and flew out to Illinois to go to Mormon Prom with her friends.  She had a blast going to prom and seeing many of her friends there!

She called home after and had nothing but great things to say!  She’s having a BLAST out there!

One Year Walk-through!

Today was our one-year walk-through with Lennar!  We can’t believe it’s already been almost a year since we moved here!  We had a home inspection done prior to that and gave John from Lennar a bunch of things that were found after the year of living here.  They’re going to take care of those things and we’re really glad we waited to do the home inspection until near the year mark.

We love our home and look forward to many years of enjoyment!  🙂

Orchestra Concert!

Tonight Brittany had her orchestra concert.  It was really cool!  One of the pieces they did was the Star Wars theme and Mr. McGuffin dressed up as Darth Vader, they all pulled out their bows and on them were glowing “light saber” sticks!  Angela made all the black fabric sheaths for the bows and the glow sticks.  🙂  The rest of their numbers were great too!  Many were accompanied by video.

Great job Brittany!  You sounded AWESOME!

Awesome job Brittany!  You always excel at everything you do!  🙂

Busy Saturday!

Today was a crazy day!  We helped the Pedersen’s (friends of ours) move.  Zach came with me while Grandma and Grandpa watched Ben.  After that, Brittany held her Birth Rocks Internship Luncheon which Angela helped with.  It turned out really nice, and even though the attendance wasn’t too high, they had a really enjoyable time.  Great job getting all this together Brittany!  You Rock!

Tonight was Musical Night 3!  Grandma and Grandpa went again to see it and said it was even better than night 2!  Great job Kirstyn!

CVHS Musical – Night 2!

Night 2 of Once Upon a Mattress was AWESOME as well!  Kirstyn is such a great little performer!  She was only one of two freshmen girls in the entire cast!

Way to break a leg Kirstyn!  You are awesome!  It looks like all the dramatics around the house paid off!  🙂  We love you!

Sad Weekend for the Family

This weekend was a sad one for the family.  David and Gina gave birth to a very premature baby they named Cacia.  After living for  a couple of days, she passed quietly to return to live with her heavenly father.  This weekend was the funeral so we all went to Salmon to support the family.  It was very sad but also comforting to know that all she needed to do was come to earth to get a body and then return.

Unfortunately with Mom and Dad on their mission in the Philippines, they couldn’t be there.  We Skyped them in for as much as we could and then sent them pictures.  The Hobbs kids also got a picture together.

With us being in Salmon, Zach missed his final championship basketball game.  They won and went undefeated for the season!  SWEET!  Much better than his team last year!  He got a cool trophy for the undefeated season as well and is pretty proud of it.  🙂

Great job this season Zach!

Ben’s Birthday!

Happy 6th Birthday Ben!  Today we celebrated what just yesterday seemed to be Ben’s first birthday!  Now he’s 6 and growing fast!  🙂  We had a little party for him as a family and he got to open his presents and have a cake that Zach helped bake and decorate (as you can see, Ben loves Oreos).  🙂

He was so excited to be 6!  For the past 2 weeks, he has been talking about nothing else.  “When I turn 6…”  “When I’m 6 I’m going to…” “I can’t wait until I’m 6…”  We’re now just waiting for the “I can’t wait until I’m 7” comments.  🙂  Happy birthday big guy!

Busy Weekend

What a busy day we had on Saturday!  Ben went to a party for his good friend Jake, and Zach and I helped some friends move.  Saturday evening, we went to Stake Conference at the Stake Center.  Brittany was assigned to speak, and she did an OUTSTANDING job!  Her talk was very inspiring.  Right after she spoke, I had to run Kirstyn to a party she was invited to.

Sunday we had the first Stake Conference broadcast in our new building.  It went really well and we enjoyed the meetings very much!  It’s cool having a new building so things are not so crowded.  Our ward was in charge of ushering and parking.

Historical Figure Day

Today, Ben and Zach had “Historical  Figure Day” at school.  They both thought long and hard about what they wanted to be and eventually they decided on a medieval knight and Davy Crockett!

They had a blast at school playing their parts!
