K-Graduation Weekend!


Here is a picture of the whole clan "enjoying" the cold snow.

Ryan graduated from BYU-Idaho.  I am so proud of him for completing his lifetime goal.  We did the hard way with kids, but it was worth it.  We have loved living in Rexburg.  I love driving 5 minutes "across town".  I love the small town feel, the Christmas lights lit up on Main Street, the local grocer and more.  It is hard to leave.  We keep on saying, we will be back.  I could really see us ending up there someday, or at least I hope so.  I am sad that we are going to miss the temple Open House and Dedication.  We have seen it being built for the last 2 year, and that is such a neat opportunity.  We may try to take a trip up there to see it.  I would really love Annika to walk through it especially since she always looked for Angel Moroni as we drive by.  The graduation went by, and we loved having all of his family come for it.  That really meant a lot to us.

Ryan went snowmobiling at Island Park with his brothers Eric and Chris and brother-in-law Eddy.  It was his first time, and he really enjoyed it.  Needless to say the girls stayed back at shopped at Maurice's (my sister-in-laws' favorite store in Idaho), the small town craft store that my mother-in-law loves, and the local chocolate factory where Florence herself was working the counter.  We got the better part, even with the kids in tow.
