It Has Almost Been A Year!




Happy New Year. One of my resolutions is to write on this blog more frequently. I have been gone from this blog for almost a year. My life is so busy that my blog simply became just one more thing to do. The latest news is that we took the 4 younger kids to California/Disney. Taylor is 17 so we decided he could stay home at our Bishop's house instead of coming to California with us because he had the leading role in the school musical and could not miss 10 days of practice. Tricia is almost 20 and is working and living with friends. Her school goals are coming along. She has been talking about going to a school in Boston to become a Mercedes mechanic. She is so good with her hands and smart so we'll see if that develops. Her long dream of being a Surgeon is not very practical unless she goes into the Military. She also talks about doing that. Being a teenager isn't always easy. I will keep this short and sweet so I will ease back into blogging slowly. To make things simple I will list the what the kids are doing at the bottom of this entry. Happy New Year!
