Congratulations Brooks

We are so proud of Brooks and his decision to be baptized. We are also sorry that we couldn't make it out to the baptism or confirmation, but we know that you will understand and appreciate our thoughtfulness in not getting you and everyone else sick. Miles came home from school on Friday with Strep Throat. We love you very much and we are very proud of you.

Love
Lynn, Janell, Daphne, Hanalee and Miles

You probably already know.....

Hi everyone.

I figured that I wanted to shed a little light on my current situation. -Deep breath- Stuart and I are planning on getting married. I'm sure most of you have already heard at very least whisperings of this. Chelsea seems to have made it her personal creed to spread the news far and wide. Even teachers at the school Stuart works at know!

We have decided to be sealed on Friday, June 19, 2009 at the Salt Lake Temple. We decided the Salt Lake temple because most of both our families are in the Salt Lake area and that's where his parents were sealed as well as my mom's family. Thankfully, La'Nece and Todd have been so gracious as to allow us to have our reception in their yard that night.

There is a little back and forth as to what to call it yet as mom (Michelle) says we're engaged because we have a temple date and I say we aren't because he hasn't asked me in so many words. I know it's not orthodox to jump the gun and reserve a spot at the temple without an official proposal, but I figured that spots in June at the Salt Lake temple would go quick!

I'll be sure to keep you updated...especially proposal details...when he actually asks. I know I'm terrible at actually checking this on a regular basis, but I do check my email usually a few times a day so you can be sure to reach me there. megmrobinson@gmail.com

Love you all,
Meg

January 2009 Wood Update

The first month of the year and I am determined to post at least once a month.

It was wonderful to see Lana & Stan with their family at Christmas, even though they brought a Christmas storm that at least in Bluffdale was a blizzard for several hours. We couldn't even see out our windows, they were solid snow. Christmas for the Wood family was wonderful, we are very blessed as a family. I surprised the family with a Wii. I did not want another game system, but thought it would be fun for the grandkids. Well, we play it most evenings (bowling, golf, tennis and of course fishing).

I don't think I was put this in the blog but Jon and Evets are having a baby boy in June around the 15th. They are going to name him Hudson Max Wood. We are excited for another Wood grandchild.

New's Years Eve was fun with the kids playing Wii and the adults played Perfect 10. A game Julie ordered it is a thinking game. We had alot of fun, we sang Happy Birthday to Becky at about 1:00 a.m.

I hope the new year treats everyone well, and keep your New Year's resolutions!
Love
Colleen

Thanksgiving Pictures





Sorry I'm so late on posting the Thanksgiving pictures, but believe it or not I have been really busy lately. Primary has been super busy trying to get everything ready for next year. I had to put the picture of Julie crying when she was telling what she is thankful for because she never reads the blog.

Crystal my mom was wanting to make sure you got your package.

I'll do a longer blog after Christmas.

Love ya all,

LaNece

Update

Just a quick update for everyone---

I am doing great, I am working lots of hours and trying to stay on top of hiring new employees again. I hope to be done with that by the holidays but who knows. I am continuing with my Iaido classes and love them, the national seminar this year will be in Boise Idaho so I will not have to travel far, although we will be helping out so I don't know how much of the seminar I will really get to attend.

For everyone coming up for the Holidays, it is snowing like a mad man. It is suppose to snow 4 out of the next 7 days so remember to pack you warm, winter clothes so you don't FREEZE! Maybe you could go skiing, there is certainly enough snow to do it!

I am way excited to see everyone at Christmas and can't wait until you get here.

Mom and I have been doing fun activities with the kids and I am impressed by their generosity. We took them shopping to by clothes and toys for a family and it was so cute to see them trying to pick out the perfect gift so the kids would have a great Christmas!

Has anyone read InkDeath yet? I just started it and it has been really good better then Inkspell. For those who don't know what I am talking about there is a series of books called Inkheart, Inkspell, and now Inkdeath. Inkheart is suppose to come out as a movie soon, I loved Inkheart, Inkspell was harder for me to read, but so far Inkdeath has been really good.

Is anyone reading any good books? I am looking for some new books so let me know! I am still taking the Trax most days so I get about 2 hrs of reading time while I ride and I have been flying through books.

My primary class recently finished a coat drive for the homeless shelter, and we had a really good time doing it. It is always inspiring to see kids that are only 10 get excited about doing things for others.

Well I have to go, hope to hear from everyone soon.

Becky
