We were able to attend "Savior of the World" at the LDS conference center in downtown SLC this year. Only those 8 years and up could attend, leaving Aimee and Cooper at home with a sitter (weird...I haven't paid a sitter in YEARS). Frank's flight from Rochester was delayed so he missed his connection in Atlanta. So, he was not able to come with us but instead stayed with his mom in Georgia. So, Zach, Max, Tucker, Bailee, and I went to the performance without him (very imcomplete). It was beautiful and we really left there feeling the spirit of Christmas.

So this is the Dad, making his first post. We have established this with the help of extended family. The Johnson's are all fine. For the record the Bagel refers to a dog, half Basset Hound and half Beagle...... thus the synthesized word Bagel. She is a great dog named Casey, who has been with us since March 2008.

OK I am going to try this on my own...I will try one picture. Here are the kids participating in our first neighborhood triathlon. Max had an early morning football game so could not participate. They had fun. Everyone was a winner. You should all set up annual triathlons in your neighborhoods - it turned out great.

Welcome to the Jungle

We are here and we promise Erica we will actually update semi-regularly!
