Finken Family Visit

The Finken's had to come visit us in Vegas for two reasons...

#1 ride the rides on top of the Stratosphere

#2 eat a Magic Noodle

well and #3 of course to spend more time with us!

 These 4 crazies rode all the rides on top of the Strat.

On our way home we all stopped in St. George for dinner 

at Durango's and then to Neilsen's Custard for desert.

My brother Micheal met up with us as well. 

It's always a treat visiting with family and friends!

It was a wonderful day!

Priesthood

Walt was ordained a Deacon in church a couple weeks ago and 

was able to pass the sacrament for the first time last week. 

Can't believe how fast he's growing up, we're so proud of him!

House full of priesthood leaders.

Priest, Teacher, Deacon, Melchizedek.

These 5 kids are all in the church youth program.

For the past 3 weeks me, Danny, Daisy, Walt, Hanna

and Max have been giving talks in church. 

They all did a fantastic job, so proud of them!

Only 2 in primary! Pretty crazy!

Jane

Jane had a rough morning going to preschool. I knew it

would be an adjustment for her which is why 

I'm doing something about it now,

hoping this won't happen in kindergarten!

It's not easy leaving your child when they're 

throwing a tantrum and crying for you!

Her teacher Mrs. Karen was so thoughtful and

printed our picture so Jane could look at us and not be sad. 

 Jane was all smiles when I picked her up and couldn't

wait to come home and do her homework!

She has great fine motor skills!
