Spring Update

Joseph passed his yearly cancer screening with flying colors. We were relieved to have a clear scan. He also passed his first test for CF something I can never remember the name. The designation is based around financial planning. He will complete 8 more tests before he is done. He is already studying for the next one.

Daniel and Katya celebrated their 4th Gotcha Day. Can you believe it, 4 years. We have now had Daniel nearly half his life just another 2 months to go.

Brigham and Kyler performed in this year’s talent show again. I tried to post the video, but after a day of downloading I gave up. Brigham did a poem called “My teacher’s voicemale message” and Kyler sang “My Favorite things.”

They announced Kyler as a singing sensation. After her performance the mom of Brigham’s teacher asked me how long she’s been taking lessons. (voice lessons) I told her she’s never taken lessons and her jaw hit the floor.

Soccer is now in full swing keeping us busy 4 days of the week.

Gammon is talking up a storm. A few of his words are: bankee (blankie), eenk (drink), eat, nigh nigh, bye, go, bed (bread), na na (banana) Daee (daddy), baa(bath), pay (pray), men (amen). He loves to pray. If it’s not his turn he’ll cry and throw a fit until he says a prayer. We often say 2 prayers every meal and evening. He even did it during Sacrament Meeting today.

One day he wanted a bath, but I did’t want to give him one. The girls were bathing getting ready to go on a mother/daughter date to see Tangled. Well Gammon was going to get his bath one way or another.

We went to the Sand dunes during spring break. We met a family with 5 kids 10 and under. He served his mission in Russia and married a girl from Russia. The kids got along great and we spent the entire weekend hanging out. We will be getting together with them again soon. We enjoyed part of conference in the trailer before heading home. Saturday Morning they announced a new Temple in Meridian. We are very excited to see where it will be.

Hope all is well with everyone and Happy Easter!
