Success!


Even though you can't see it in the picture Dustin did take him down.

still holding on!!!


He is a determined boy!

Dustin still at the big take down!

65 pounds vs...220 pounds


I don't know what the people in West Haven feed their kids but they grow them big out there!
Dustin tackled a 220 pound kid on his own. Brian said that it was one of the funniest things he has ever seen while watching football.
Thanks to Andrea Storey for catching it all on camera.

Time Out


I went to Time Out for women a couple of weeks ago up at Utah State. We all stayed at Tasha's house and then went to hear lots of good speakers talk on HOPE. My favorite was a lady named Kris Belcher. She is blind from cancer and she spoke on light. I really needed a time out and looking forward to doing this again next year!

If you judge people...you have no time to love them! Mother Teresa

Tonight I went to the Relief Society broadcast. President Monson's talk was on not judging others. He told a story of a woman who looked out her window and criticized her neighbor for hanging out dirty laundry. She did this for about two weeks and then one morning to her surprise the ladies laundry was clean when she looked out her window. Her husband told her that he woke up early and cleaned their windows.
We all need to look at others with clean windows.
Good lesson to learn from our prophet.

Summer 2010




It has been a long long time since I even opened up this blog. This summer was the summer of remodeling, getting Ally to college, and just surviving...to say the least I have been a little bit stressed but I am bound and determined to enjoy life and not sweat the small stuff.
Some highlights of our summer was a 20 mile hike in Jackson to Union Falls. I had been having all sorts of heart palpitations and the cardiologist told me not to go but I went anyway and I am so glad that I did it was beautiful and something good to say that I have done. Here are some pictures from it.
