Jonathon's Mission Call

Jonathon received his mission call today from the stake president. He was called and set apart today to serve as a service missionary at the Provo MTC for 12 months. He will be living at home and commuting to the MTC. Since Jonathon has health problems, he is unable to serve a regular full time LDS mission.

Utah State Fair


Our family is a big fan of the state fair. It is fun to see all the stinky animals and enjoy the fact that you don't own any of them.


The one thing I learned this day was not to get too close to a sheep's face. They can sneeze on you.

Labor Day Road Trip

On Labor Day my dad called me up and asked if I wanted to go on a road trip with him to Ephraim, Utah (which is 2 hours away) to buy some rabbits from the biggest New Zealand White rabbit farm in Utah! Of course I said yes. Who would miss this chance to see the biggest rabbit farm in Utah (Not counting my mother and brother who both claimed to have other things to do)? Ever since my dad started his rabbit hobby, he has wanted to see this place.


My dad selected 2 rabbits to take home.
These were the lucky 2

House Makeover

A couple of weeks ago, the U of U had the Maters of Accounting (MAcc) students do an all day service project. We were split into groups, and each group was assigned a house in the SLC area to fix and clean up. This had to be the best and most fun service project I have ever done. I was great to see what a group of people can do for a family in need in the period of one day.

Here are some before and after pictures:

It was really fun to see the transformation of the front of the house throughout the day.
