Welcome to all those that would like to take a look through this little window into some of the adventures of our family journey. We would like to dedicate this scrapbook journal of sorts, to family members that have gone before us in this medium. Because of the joy that their family journaling, in this way, has brought to us, we were moved to not only to try to return the favor hopefully, but also provide a lasting record to return to throughout the years as a reminder of our quest to be commited to remember where the truest and most lasting joy comes from. Also, we dedicate all effort of this page to our outrageously fun not to mention patient children, as they continue to be an irreplaceable tool in chiseling out the shape of the masterpiece that our family is to become. We love you and hope what follows in the adventures ahead will bring you a few smiles as well as increase the unity of our family and friendships. Continue at your own risk.....

A Celebration of Amazing Women and Keeping to the Guidelines the Lord has Set!




Give me a young woman who loves home and family-whoreads and ponders the scriptures daily-who has a burning testimony of the Book of Mormon-Give me a woman who faithfully attends her Church meetings-who attends seminary--Give me a young woman who is virtuous and who has maintained her personal purity, who will not settle for less than a temple marriage---and I will give you a young woman who will perform miracles for the Lord now and throughout eternity
-Ezra Taft Benson
THANK YOU for surrounding my valiant young women with Grandmas, Aunt,and Cousins that shine the way before them....and serve as such deserving heros to them!




THANK YOU SO MUCH for everyone who was able to take the time to come and not only help pick out Shayli's first "date dance" dress, but more importantly help us celebrate this beautiful young woman that is not only absolutely gorgeous, but has continued to develop such a stunning spirit and virtuous standards--Your examples continue to be a guiding light to all of our children!




There is nothing more beautiful than a modest, humble, standard keeping, parent respecting, young woman who loves the Lord and has the light of Christ in her eyes and her heart!


Navigating High School at New School- Weber High



On our House Search trip to Pleasant View in April 2008-Our high school siblings took time to navigate what being a WEBER WARRIOR will be like

Our WAY fun FHE on the 6 "BEES"



How it all began

So-almost exactly 1 year ago-the breeze of change began and slowly but surely it turned in to the winds of change and then eventually the tornado of change took hold of our family and it picked us up and when all was said and done it landed us in Pleasant View- Utah. Well- the picture to the right is Ryker on the flight to Utah with mom and dad on their way to just politely "check out" a physician recruitment in Ogden, Utah. We actually looked at it as a fun one on one paid vacation with our little guy--little did we know at the time what an adventure had started to take flight with this flight to the west-meanwhile-Ryker was invited to sit with a pilot flying on the plane to his next assignment. He was star struck and loved this very generous and very kid friendly pilot, most likely missing his own kids- and so they both seem to benefit from this newly formed friendship--just one of the first of millions of "benefits" to surface from this lift off
