Last Race for Clinty

Clinton At Districts. Clinton was not really excited about going to district cross country but I am very proud of him for finishing the season. This race was at Arco and the course was grueling. Mostly sand and the last part on pavement and lots of hills. His legs were BURNING by the time he finished.
But, here he is with his fan club before the race.


Here is Clinton at the beginning of the race and doing well towards the front of the group.

Clinton finishing the race. So proud of him.

Finish at Ririe Dam

The girl you hear yelling that Clinton is such a stud is a good friend of his and one of my Laurels, Krissy Ritter. She is so funny!!!!

Our Life Right Now

Can you tell that our life right now consists of our son Clinton. It is so hard to grasp the fact that we have only one child at home now. For those of you with young families it is hard to believe that the day will come when your children will graduate from high school and leave for college and get married. I remember!! Looking back over the years, they are a complete blur to me. I remember when Jennifer turned 12 and began Young Womens, our friend gave us such crap about having a kid in Mutual. Little did I know then, that was only the beginning. The clock suddenly sped up and now here we are years later almost empty nesters. Clinty is talking about BYUI after graduation and living on campus. Wow, how wierd will that be, just Harold and I?
My one consolation is that Aubrie keeps dropping hints of moving home and renting their home out to pay the mortgage and help pay down her student loans. Just how fun will it be to have the married kids move back home? They do have little Eli, that would be fun to have him around grandma all the time, and if I get tired of her she can go visit the neighbor!!!!! (Jes) Ha ha.
I mentioned to my dear friend Christine just this morning the possibility of Aubs and Brian coming home and she started to laugh and said "of all the kids she never thought I would even consider letting her move home" and I said "of all the kids I never thought she would consider moving home." How time flies and changes us all huh? Aubrie is wonderful and I love her and that Brian! She has become quite a little woman! She said to me the other day, "I want 10 kids" .........................................................................................ya me too, thought she was on drugs!
Ya thats our life right now.

Senior Night for Clinton

PARTY AT MIKES HOUSE

Mike and Kathy had the family over for a party for Jon's farewell and to meet Dave and Stepany Leosch ( I am not sure of the spelling but just think of a drunk , yes is is pronounced LUSH) Dave was Mikes first mission companion in Austrailia and they have remained very good friends all this time. We had SOOOOOOOOO Much FUN!!!!! Paul had us play a game called signs. OH my gosh, we laughed so darn hard. Even my parents got into it. We had a great dinner and just enjoyed hanging out visiting. Sunday morning we went to church to hear Jons talk, he did such a great job. He is just a good young man. We are very happy for him. He is going to Richmond VA. and he is so excited to go...... Jes and Aubrie and their babies and I went down for it. I couldn't get Clinton to go two weekends in a row so he and Harold stayed home. But we had a great time. Thanks Mike and Kathy for your hospitality!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We love you guys!!!!!!!!! Here are some pictures of Dan and his family during dinner...
