A Busy Weekend
Gary here. Friday I drove up to Salt Lake to participate in the seventh annual Thomas Jefferson Education Forum sponsored by TJEd Marketplace. I thought the economy would impact attendance but it was packed. There were over three hundred kids in the youth forum (standing room only) and what must have been somewhere between 800 and 1000 in the adult forum. The power of good people and volunteer organizations never cease to amaze me. Joseph wasn't able to attend this year, unfortunately, due to a scheduling conflict. He had his first viola competition - where he performed with an accompanist before a panel of three judges who drove down from SLC. He received a Superior rating, the highest possible. If he were to do that nine years in a row he would get a scholarship to SUU.
Lizzy has the croupe again. No fun. I stayed home with her for the first two hours of church. That was a blast. We read books and watched family videos. Including this new one from our trip to Cali last September. She wanted to watch "silly mommy" over and over again. Good times!

Loved that video. You make great videos. They always make me want to go wherever the subject is. Man, I really want to take our kids back to DLand! It is definately a place where you just can't get enough. Perfect song choice. I caught a glimpse of Maren in there. I'm jealous she got to go with your family.
It was good to see the family today. Wish we had more time to visit!
