21 January 2008

Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day! For those wondering about Nephi - he was doing much better by Friday morning. He has a runny nose though - only because he's been playing outside in the freezing cold. What a day we've had today - well actually the past couple weeks. We thought something was wrong with wiring of our house cuz only 1/2 the house had power. When we realized both our panels weren't working - Russell called the utility people - who thankfully said our end of the line was fine. It was the power pole on the neighbor's lot. His power wasn't functional either! The power guy gave Nephi the wires he took down and they were nasty. The plastic had burned off there was lots of exposed wire. Nephi thought that was dang cool! We are lucky the problems stayed with the pole. So - that's been our day off today!

I think this was in 2004. It was Nephi's first trip to the beach. The boys were all so little! My have they grown.

Meet the Parents...Russell and Candace
It all started for us when Russell left for Cape Town South Africa on a mission. Candace felt inspired to write him - so she did! We wrote for 3 1/2 years. Candace came home from her mission to the Texas Houston East Mission and we dated for 5 months. We married in July 1994 and have been happy ever after!
