Its Been far too long!

Just wanted to try starting this back up as an effort of journaling our family's life. So after 11 years, here we go :) We now live in Southern Utah! Wasn't sure if we would ever leave Idaho, though that was the initial plan from the beginning for us both. So here we are in Hurricane, Utah where Chad will be teaching Seminary at Hurricane High School. Staci is super excited about warmer temperatures and we are all excited to be closer to family and new adventures in a new place!  

Weston is now 16, will be a junior in High School,  and is on the Hurricane High School golf team, hopeful of making the basketball team and is working at Sand Hollow Resort. Analee is 14, a Freshman, and is planning to play basketball for Hurricane Middle School, still loves dance and gymnastics, and is working part time doing a little housekeeping and even some social media recruiting!  Kallista is 12, going into 7th grade and will attend Hurricane Intermediate School where she will continue her bi-lingual pursuits with the Spanish language immersion program.  She loves dance and hopes to continue taking dance with a studio here.  Gwen is 10 and going into 5th grade at Hurricane Elementary and is a part of the Spanish Langauge Immersion program.  She also still enjoys dance and is hopeful of pursuing that more as we are here.  Lydia is 8 and will be in the 3rd grade, also at the Hurricane Elementary and a part of the Spanish Language Immersion program.  She is excited to get baptized in September and about doing just about anything and everything. She is really happy she is closer to grandparents!  Tessa is almost 4 and is the perfect glue if you will, to our family.  She is everyone's favorite and is always wanting everyone to be happy and to know that she loves them!  She loves dinosaurs, dragons and sharks :)
