In order to get ready for Young Women Camp this summer, our young women had to have an overnight campout to pass off some of their requirements (like building a fire, cooking something outside, setting up a tent, etc).  This is because when they get to camp they will be sleeping in air-conditioned cabins .  [...]

Check out this video – just in time for Father’s Day!  It has a great message about the relationship between Fathers and Sons.  It’s also cool, however, because it stars friends of our family from our ward (church group) in Las Vegas, where we lived before we moved to Georgia. Here is the one that [...]

We saw it coming, but we didn’t know exactly when it would happen .  Cody and Whitney are now OFFICIALLY engaged!!  Wooohooo.  We absolutely LOVE Whitney and can see that the two of them are perfect for one another.  What a great start to an eternity together.  They are going to be married in the [...]

Whitney made sure that Cody had a GREAT birthday this year.   She took him on a huge scavenger hunt where everything related to places they had been together.   After that she had arranged for a surprise party for him with a bunch of friends and a “Lost” (TV show) theme.
