Springtime MISC.
Here are some other things that have been happening at the Noldens in the Spring of 2010:
We were so happy to have the Whipple family from our Vegas ward visit us in March. Reed had just graduated from Army Basic training (at Fort Benning)...and 3 days later was flying out for his first assignment in Germany. We got to visit with them for the few days in between.
Some of the Whipples: Norma, Amber, Amber's little boy, Dale & Reed.
Norma, Amber, Amber's little boy, & Amber's mother-in-law...who used to live in our Stake, but had since moved away.
We had our Family Home Evening Group meet at our house in March...which is always fun.
Good Food...and Friends...
This was the last few days for Sister Leavitt, who had filled her 18-month mission to Georgia and was headed home to Utah two days after this photo was taken. (LtoR: Sister Ballard, Stephanie Shipp, and Sister Leavitt)
Elder Davies wasn't going home yet, but he was being transferred out of our area. Here he is with the some of the kids (and Shayne) the day before he left.

Liz hung out with her friends recently at a river near our home. She had a lot of fun, but got sunburned too.

Donovan's Spring Portrait. He is 9 and in the 4th Grade. I can't believe I let him wear that shirt on picture day!

Ashley Spring Portrait. She is 11 and in the 5th Grade. When she left for school she had a brown hair band in...the photographer actually made her switch hair bands with another girl in her class! #1 it doesn't match...#2....ewwww!!! What was he thinking!!!

Donovan is quite the little artist. He has drawn several things, but this is one I just happened to have at my desk, so I scanned it. :-)
This is a picture of Christ that he drew.
My dad was in the hospital a couple of times recently...he really scared us. He is doing great now. But I just loved this picture that Tristan took when he was in the hospital. It is such a sweet picture of my mom and dad. They will have been married for 46 years next month! They are so cute together still and hold hands when they go walking...they are an inspiration!
