Really Great Information

Hey Guys,

I wanted to share a book on tape recommendation with you all. It's actually a series of talks entitled "For All Eternity" by John L. Lund.

You can get it from the Library or buy on Amazon or Deseret Book. It's only 5 disks, but is full of really great stuff. I highly recommend you take the time to listen to it, road trips are perfect...

He talks about ways we can improve our communication with our spouses (and everyone for that matter), negociation, confliction resolution and finally forgivness. The last disk on forgiveness is the best talk I've ever heard on how to forgive and why we need to. I feel like Megan and I have a really great relationship, but this gave us some great tips to make it even better. Oh Yeah!!

Please take a listen! You won't be disappointed!

Happy Birthday Mom

Happy Birthday Mom! We are so lucky to have you as our very own. You make us so proud, and we admire you so much. You are so graceful and so beautiful. Mom, you have been a wonderful mother - you have had faith in all of us, and you have made each and every one of us feel so special, and you are a friend to each of us. What more could we ask for? You are the best! We hope you have a wonderful birthday. We love you Mom!

Happy Birthday to Ann Elizabeth!

Annie is 1! We can hardly believe it...For the first year of her life she has been overwhelmed with starwars, trains and dinosaurs. She finally got a baby doll for her birthday. Right away she put it up to her shoulder and patted it's back. She loves to put her baby in her crib, cover her, then uncover her and take her out and do the whole process over and over. Lot's of love to our little one year old.

A really great book

Dudes,

I just finished a really wonderful book last night called "Peace Like a River", by Leif Enger. It's the story of this little family whose father has so much faith that he can perform miracles, which he does so very quitely.

Shat!

Hi all--

I wanted to mention to you all what an amazing experience it has been for Dad & I to get involved with the Utah Refugee Center.  We've been able to help them through the family foundation by providing money to hire additional employees to reduce the case-load that each employee has.  Additionally, I've been "assigned" a family to help that is from Somalia with 9 children, two of which have special needs.  Their mother is tied to the home with caring for them, and the husband works and at the D.I.  They speak very little English.  Recently the mother asked for a few bikes for her kids, and  we've been able to secure 4 bikes through Debbie Reid's "Bikes for Kids Foundation".   It's so amazing to see the good that we can do for others in such desperate need.  Thanks, Dad for setting up the foundation, and for letting me be a part of this experience!
