other than the wedding plans things are going normal. Nathan is getting ready to start school ( probably weber state for now then transferr to u of u)
he is able to have the workmans comp people pay for his vocational rehab because of his work related injury.
he wants to get into computer graphic design it think. but with him it changes each day.
Brenden is under his car right now in my drive way. putting in a new clutch on his car and something think else that looks black and greasy. he knows what it is , i just dont but then again moms arent sapose to know or even ask right?
Katey and Stephanie and Micki have gone to hobby lobby to get scrapbooking stuff. Micki is realy missing Jenna and will have a realy hard time with her being gone after she gets married and moves out there. poor thing is gona be left at home with just two OLD folks.
Lee is making empanadas. ( an argentine meat pastry) mmmm good. i am blogging and studying. mostly blogging right now. i have been studying all day and i take my test on the first of April. ( hope the april fools thing is not a bad sign.)

Katey got into a wreck this past week (she is ok.) just a fender fight with a car in front of her that went.... then stopped again.and Katey did not realize that the dumb blonde stopped. and yes of course Katey got the ticket. happy seventh month anniversary to them.

we hope everyone had a nice Easter and are doing great.. things are going good here and we are keeping busy and trying to stay out of trouble.
we hope to see you all at the wedding. we know some of you come from farther away and there is not much of a notice but it will be nice to have the family there if possible. Delynn had a good idea.... everyone needs to get going on this blogg thing so we can keep in touch better.
talk soon.
love ya'll ( as chris says.. Jennas chris. )

Easter news.

well things have been moving very quickly since i last reported. I am getting closer to my test date for the state board insurance exam. (study times are hard to come by , but its coming)
Lee and I had our 25th wedding anniversary this past week. not much planned during the week, but this week end looks to be the big surprize he has planned. cant wait to find out what there is in the works.

Lee is still working hard at work. with new students all the time that seem to come UN prepared more and more these days. it just amazes him that they can even get dressed in the morning let alone find their way TO the school.
keeping up with all the new policies and procedures and up coming advancements. ( more to come on that. )

Brenden and Katey are doing great. they are working hard at their jobs and still finding time to be silly. Brenden never surprizes us with what he is up to next. Katey is getting good at that old shake the head and roll the eyes thing.. she just says.. ahhhh B your a nut.
they are getting closer to being OUT of debt. one of their first goals of their marriage. they are very dedicated to that goal and make adjustments to plans to accomidate budget living. they are great at it.
no grand baby yet. ( i still dont think im ready for that any ways)

Nathan and Stephanie..
Nathan is in between jobs again. the place he was working at did lay offs of course last to come first to go type thing. he is getting his paper work in to get started with school he plans to go to weber and then transferring to u of u.
they are looking at moving to salt lake before that happens.
steph. is still working and going to school she should be done here soon in a few months.

Jenna is actually up in the air as i type. she is on her way to North Carolina to see her guy.
she will be there for a week and two week ends. she was axious to get there, and spend some time with chris and his family and get to know the "kin folk" as they call family out there.
the wedding plans are still going great. she found her a dress. most important thing right? the rest is getting there. it looks to be like it will be end of June first of july time frame wedding.
hope we will have family there.

Macarah ... is looking forward to getting jenna's room. she has paint plans and new carpet as well. ( she doesnt think i will have a say.. uh.. yeah i do)
she is going to turn 15 next month and allready planning the drivers ed trips...
myself.. well i am looking into some stock options for the hair coloring company. ( the color that covers GRAY)

i think that covers everyone. we hope everyone is doing great at their places of slumber and that we will see ya soon. ( at the wedding).
