What's happening in Utah 4-28-09

Hello Son,
I can't believe that I blew off a letter to you not one week but two. I am so sorry. This week has been every bit as crazy as the last two, but Mary Ann has reminded me.

Garth was up here for spring break, and Mary Ann loved seeing him again. Benson, asked a girl out for Prom this week. He is going out with 3 other couples. I hope that they have a great time.

Mary Ann took Anneke to the salon so that she could get a new haircut. I looks so nice.

At Deseret Industries last week we picked up a park bench. I am refinishing it.

We had Russ and his family over for a brats and a picnic. The grill never looked happier (so I included a picture).

Mary Ann got a promotion at work, she is now over the Customer Service Department.

We had 14 inches of snow last week (really) and also 87 degree weather. Welcome to Utah.

Well, I am sure that you can tell that my heart is not in this, but I really have a lot on my mind.

I hope that you are having a great week, and that you have baptisms so thick that you have to just line them up and run them through the car wash. lol

I love hearing from you, and I hope that you are getting settled in there in Chesapeake. Who is your new companion, and what is your new area like.

Mary Ann and I are going to Las Vegas for Mothers Day so that she can see her kids. If you get to call us too on Mothers Day, use her cell phone # (801) 356-xxxx.

I love you son, and I hope that everything is going great for you.
Love, Dad, Mary ann and Benson.

Easter Weekend 4-22-09

Hello Everyone,

Well, this week has gone by way to fast. This whole transfer has gone by fast, I found out that I am being transfered down to Chesapeake and I leave tomorrow. (Funny, you thought I was staying),

I am really going to miss Newport News and the great people here. I didn't realize it, but I really don't like moving after being in an area for so long. Finally getting to know my way around then I get moved. I know that this is were the Lord needs me to go and I am really looking forward to my new area (I am in a car).

I still have not gotten my new licence and do not know my new address yet. I will write it and send it off tomorrow. I needed to get the carry on bag for my stuff and so I went out and got it and the back pack I had for my 72 hour kit ripped in half with only 24 hours worth of stuff in it.

This next month is Mothers Day and I will be calling home for the second time. WOW! time is moving fast I will be hitting my 6 month mark on Dad's birthday and then my one year mark. I am done thinking about it this is just to fast.

P.S. Any packages? Please send them to the Mission Home until further notice.
P.S. Don't forget to update the website.

Love Elder Boy
