Elder Jonathan Bird

Jonathan is now known as Elder Jonathan Bird.
He went into the MTC, wednesday, May 16th at 11:30. He was nervous, but we know he will be a great missionary.

Jonathan's Mission Call

News!

Jonathan received his mission call yesterday - March 14, 2007

He will be leaving on May 16th for Tulsa, OK.

He had a few of his friends over while he opened his letter and found out that one of them is

leaving for Tulsa in April - so he will have a friend in his mission from the start.

We are so proud of Jonathan, he will be an awesome missionary!

Here are the pictures from the canyon.

Bike Race

Hi, we were able to go to St. George last weekend to watch Reed race. It was a beautiful day, but still a little cool. Their race course was behind Green Valley and it was 6 miles long. The number of times around the course depended upon the "class" you raced in. Reed had to go 3 times around the course - 18 miles. When he was finished he was not even tired.

This was not a good race to him, he had 2 flat tires! He would have been 1st if he had not had the tire problems.

Reed's brother races in a different class - and he won his race! Reed's two nephews raced also, Scott - 7, and Einn - 3. The look so cute riding around on their little bikes.

Way to go Reed!

On the way home we stopped a small Slot canyon above St. George. We had a great time.

Until the next time - Laurie

Pictures

These are our pictures from the St. George race. Also if you look on the abboblog.blogspot.com Kim posted about the race as well with some different pictures that someone took.

Snowed In!

Hello again,



It is not snowing today, yea! But we had at least 9 inches yesterday and that is on top of the 9 inches on Monday. I'm ready to have spring arrive. I was thinking of our trip to Hawaii last month. It seems as if we did not go now that we have been home with all of the snow. I took my camera to take pictures and the only ones I took endedup being of the birds at the hotel. I post one of them just to show you that there is a place on the earth that is in the sun and not the snow.



Two more things to share with everyone, or just the two of us. Saturday was Reed's birthday!



Happy Birthday Reed!

We are going down t St. George this weekend for Reed's race. He'll be first place of course.


(OK, I did it again, I did not turn the picture before I posted it. The bird is sitting up straight, not hanging down.)


Have a good day and week.Laurie

Hello Everyone!

I have no idea where Jonathan might be called, so I'll

just stay with Boise, ID. I'm posting his picture we sent

in with his papers. I also added some pictures of my last two quilts.
