Brandon was ordained an Elder on his birthday.

Larry & Connie came over to share that neat experience with us.

How blessed we are to have Georgia parents/grandparents

Birthday Friend Fun

Jun & Baseball

Kurtis loves baseball.

He's been blessed to play and become friends with some incredible young men

and we've been the beneficiaries of getting to know their wonderful families!

Jun Ota and his cute family are moving back to Japan.

After spending 4 years playing ball together, strong bonds have been formed.

We had a going away party and Jeff made a fun picture cd of memories together.

Of course we only do rain parties, but wonderful none the less.

Kumiko and I spent so many hours laughing at the ball fields.  I sure will miss her!

Celebrating

Eagle Court of Honor, 2 Graduations, BBQ and Swim Party,

Beyond grateful to G & G for helping us with it all,

taking us to yummy Nikkos and everything else...

We are so blessed!

Brandon graduated from McIntosh High School.

What an incredible young man he's become.

Brando the Commando...Oh, The Places You'll Go!

We Love You Brandon and are so proud of you!

Continue to do amazing things...

Goodbye Elementary School

Justin graduated from 5th grade...not sure who doesn't,

but why not celebrate being done with elementary school:)

Justin & Klaire were chosen as the two chorus students of the year!

Sara and Justin were together in every class every year...almost siblings.

J was "knighted" and shared his favorite memory, which was his friend Raiki

and how much he missed him since he recently moved back to Japan.

Goodbye Kedron...thanks for teaching our 4 boys for the past 12 years!

Quick lunch celebration before Brandon's graduation.
