Cosi just completed her country report on Cambodia. Her inspiration came from one of the Elders in California, Elder Pov. He taught us a lot about Cambodia. This made Cosi's report really neat for the whole family. (We are also excited because he just wrote us and said that he may come to Utah for college.) Cosi did a great job on her report, complete with rice glued all over her poster board! It's no surprise that Cosi is a straight A student. Good job Cos!

Industrial Design Degree Finally Pays Off!

Sweetness! I...er, I mean Max is the new grand champion of the Lindon 17th Ward Cub Scout Pinewood Derby 2008. Credit is due Uncle Bry who meticulously milled the axles of the wheels. Now we anxiously await the completion of the required 15-day protest period without any complaints and we can chalk this one up in the books. (Dave or Rich, if someone does lodge a complaint, can I count on you to kick in some help?) They didn't see us coming...rookies!

The three good sports, good fun was had by all...in your face!

All We Want For Chistmas is Our Two Front Skis!

We were all so excited to get Sundance season passes for Christmas! A dream come true for me (the Mom)! I not only love being up there remembering all of the good times with the brothers and sisters, but it brings me total joy to be in the mountains and watch each of my kids, and husband learn how to ski! I wasn't even anxious to go put in some runs on my own! (Well, for the time being anyway!) Max and Tom did the best "pizza's" ever! And I believe Rob has has a whole pizza party on his own! (We're going to have to introduce Rob to "french fries" next time!) Tanner is just beginning to take on the mogles, I hear Alyson has chalked up some points on the "crash-0-meter," and they say that Cosi is a fearless demon on skis!:) We can't wait to go again!
