There are Lamanites in Montana

Sponge Bob found out the hard way there are still Lamanites living in Montana. At least we have the reruns to remember him by.

Sponge Bob looks like a missionary to me. All he needs is a name tag. You can tell he is happy by the big smile he has.

We are going to see Okalahoma at BYU with Anne and William on William's Birthday.

We hope the DR-ites are treating you well.

Cold, cold cold....

I don't think I will ever convince Aly to visit my parents in Alaska after showing her this photo they sent me. It is cold here in Utah too. A pipe broke in the Provo Library and some of their new books are wet now. I hope they have wet book insurance.

Freeze, Freeze

It is so cold here. You are so blessed to be in the Dominican Republic.
One of our pipes even froze and we cannot do the dishes or run the dishwasher.
I hope that the pipe doesn't break (Water expands when it freezes.). But you knew that.
We had a great time with the missionaries tonight. We had some really good testimonies.
Last Sunday I presented the priesthood lesson, focusing on missionary work. Of course, we talked about Ammon, Alma, Paul, and others who were great missionaries. I am pretty sure that your name came up more than once. Way to go.
Wow, I heard that you were transferred again. You didn't unpack when you got to your new area did you?
Keep being humble and the Lord will bless you. Love the people. Help them to feel the Spirit. Love and Kisses, DAD

Wow. I am on the blog.
We were just thinking of you and how much we love you.
Despite what Zeb claims, I have never seen him at 24 Hour. Kara and Mike went snowboarding on Friday.
We watched Trieste and Sarah for three days. Mom and I even took them to the BYU basketball game. We think that they enjoyed it, although, with Sarah, it was like WWE wrestling. My arms still hurt! Oh, and BYU beat San Diego State.
MTC was great today: good testimony meeting. Next week we get a new MTC presidency.
Mom has a little cold, but will probably be ok in a day or two.
It has been cold here. How cold? Even the skaters won't go outside.
There is a rumor that Bonnie is pregnant. If it is true, remember you heard it here first.
Xander sure likes it when we have Trieste and Sarah over. All three of them like to play together. Sarah loves to climb up to the sink and play in the water. She gets really mad if we stop her. Will there be swim team sometime in her future?
We are happy, and we pray for your health and success. Love and Kisses, DAD

2007 Is So Different I Didnt Even Recognize It At First.

NAAAAATE,
Holy crap Nate this year has been exciting. It's 2007 the snow is whiter the sun is brighter and the world is amazing. Snowboarding is fun (Is that even a real sentence). I got a membership to 24 hour fitness so I can use the hot tub. What else would you do at 24 hour fitness? Maybe I'll watch William swim laps while I sit in the hot tub. That will be fun for everyone. Nate did you blow stuff up over the new year? I'll bet there were a lot of firecrackers that just went boom there. I'll bet you were not able to sleep cause it sounded like a war was going on. That must have been cool. Nate we need more photos of the weird food that you are eating there. Ok signing off till next time on the same nate blog same nate time.
