Happy Mother's Day...from the favorite child!


Ben and Lauren took good care of their mom for Mother's Day.  A little MD breakfast on the lanai.  Looks yummy.

The rush to end the school year is on!  School projects, assignments, performances, graduations.  It’s all important and don’t even think about missing a single one! 


Kate has performed at least 15 out of the 30 days last month…or at least it seems like it.  Hobble Creek Choir has been invited to perform for many audiences and they have had so much fun doing it.  Especially when Kate gets to see cousins in Logan (USU)!  Pictures are worth a thousand words…right?


While at the Red Barn performance we talked Jake into sitting on the wooden fence and snapped a few pics of him as well.


Jake is now 15 and thinking about a driver’s license (or at least a learners permit), getting paid to umpire little league baseball games, more fishing and SUMMER.


Jake was given the opportunity to help a friend in the neighborhood with his Eagle Project.  The young man is an amazing swimmer (recruited by BYU) and wanted to give under-privileged children in Springville an opportunity learn how to swim.  So John and Jake and a crew of many other youth in our community held classes for several weekends in April.  John’s mom offered this review of the project once completed:
“As I watched the ten teenagers who offered to help John with his project, I was impressed with what these youth were doing.  There was so much noise and enjoyment in the pool as these teens helped these kids learn to swim.  I loved seeing them work--they were laughing, smiling, and enjoying helping as they gave of their time.  I wish I had a You Tube video of the morning, and it would be titled "Teens That Care!"   I share a few pictures that I took, and I want you to notice not only the smiles on the second and third graders, but also the cute teen helpers.  They are awesome!!  It was a great morning--one that I wish all of Springville could see these great kids in action!”


Kate placed (1st in 100, 3rd in 200) at the Hershey Track Meet.  Because of her wins she is now invited to the district meet.  She loves running, especially sprinting.  Pictured here with the Springville/Mapleton Royalty. 


We saw Bianca on Mother’s Day.  She came to hear Kate give her first Sacrament meeting talk and then had dinner with us.  It was nice to get caught up with her and find out what is happening in her life.  Kate prepared and served a delicious Mother’s Day breakfast which included a poem she wrote for me.  Jake was on time to church without me bugging him too much (that is a BIG deal), and Bianca brought me flowers in a wooden planter box she made.  She knows I love spring flowers.  Kels, of course was slaving away in the Singles Ward, but the bishop gave him special permission to leave for a few minutes to come hear Kate speak.  Kels and kids made dinner for all the moms in the family.  It was a very nice day. 


We are sprinting to the end of May and then we’ll be ready for Summer fun!
