Starting 2018 A Bit Late - January

Okay, sometimes you just can't get everything done and sometimes you are just behind.  Well, 2018 is a little of both.  We were called the end of December to serve as assistant coordinators of the FamilySearch Center.  It has been a challenge to learn our new responsibilities - Shanna is in charge of scheduling missionaries for the evening groups and keeping the WIKI up-to-date.  Theron is in charge of keeping all the equipment and computers going.  So, this is our excuse for being behind.

We are just now getting caught up.  In addition, they have started our pool and we are trying to coordinate the building of the block walls and Theron and Craig will be plumbing the gas lines.

Then, Curt and Melanee found a home and moved the first part of March which means we are getting our home in NSL ready to sell.  Add to this, Theron is helping Neala and Louis pack for their big move to Texas on March 30.

Okay, enough excuses.  Taking a few minutes each week to write down some memories should be easy to do and we just need to keep a half-hour set aside for this.  Memories are so important at our age ... now what was I writing about?

January 2018
The first of January brought a great visit from our Samoan friends, Rusty and Cindy Gillette.  They live in Idaho and we traveling to California.  It was so fun to be with them again.

Thinking that we could help build the faux rock feature for the swimming pool, Theron bought a welder and Rusty gave him a few lessons.  Well, the faux rock feature is going to be so much more complex and bigger than we can handle, Theron may never use the welder.  Still, it was so fun to have a lesson from our expert.  They are a delight to be with.
