So much to be grateful for this year!

The Lord has answered so many prayers and showered us abundantly with blessings last year. We had 2 new grandchildren and a new one on the way and Lauren married Blake Hansen in December in the Logan Temple. Our home also sold last year and we were able to rent it back for 3 years until Dallin goes on a mission. Scott and Paige moved (Max and Kate) back to Utah so he can do his residency at the University of Utah. They bought a cute little house in Kaysville (where?). Ariel and Adam bought a home in Houston where Adam is practicing law and Ariel is a new mom (Charlotte) and a dissertation writer. Lauren graduates this year as a radiology tech and begins a specialty of her choice this summer. David and Ashley are also full time students again and love their majors. David has been well for 4 years now. Ashley brought little "Lucy" into our lives last year and I adore that dog! Jessica graduated from Utah State and is now a teacher and will have her first baby in April. Bryce and Lauren are proud parents of new little Chase Aaron, little Emma and beautiful Elle. Bryce started a new Architecture firm of his own last year. Caroline holds down many jobs such as song writer, singer, performer, hair dresser, model, red bull girl, personal shopper for Skull Candy, and I forget what else. She is a busy girl and has countless friends. Dallin is now 15 years old and 6'2 + and loves rock climbing and snowboarding. He is also a great basketball player and loves to play the piano. He also is a good friend to many.
Steve and I are proud parents as you can see. It takes a lot of energy and time to keep this family afloat but they bring us great joy and honor to our name. We feel richly blessed of the Lord and give our thanks and all glory to Him.
