I am slow completing the information this week because I have been busy working on homework for my Technology Integration class at the U of U. I went to class tonight and felt good about what I had accomplished. I now have only three assignments to finish and I have several new things for school to use that I have constructed. I think I also know how to use any tool at UEN (Utah Education Network).

Michelle had her baby yesterday, Tuesday, April 11. Kallise Marie Gibby weighed 7 lbs. 1 oz. and was 20 1/2 inches long. Daniel said he thought it was Michelle's easiest delivery. I thought Kallise looked alot like Hailee when she was born. I went to tend the kids in the morning until noon and Daniel's mom, Dorothy, took them for the rest of the day. It was nice to have spring break so I could do that.

Nathan and Sara are adjusting to being back together after he was gone to training. Sara is doing alot of things for Relief Society this last week. Nathan has been spending time with the boys. He took David to the Library on Monday. Nathan had drill on the weekend.

Jake also had drill on the weekend. They had a family day at Drill so the family all went. Lexie climbed the rock wall. Lexie's dance Competition on the 22nd will be at the West Jordan Middle School, 7550 West Redwood Rd. She will be performing about 11:00 a.m.

Jeff is in training at his job right now. On May 1st he moves to evenings. He will work from noon until 9:00 p.m. Misty's sister from Maryland came in today to visit and see their new baby, Owen. She will be here until Monday. Then on Wednesday Jeff and Misty are going to California to visit Grammie and bring her back for a visit.

Kyle has gone to Vernal for spring break. Kirsten and Jon went to Wolf Creek for Sunday night to stay to use a certificate that Michelle gave them for a night together.

Erick spent all day Saturday trimming the trees and bushes in the yard. It was such a nice day that he got sunburned. It was so nice to have him do the work. The weather has been really weird lately. Thursday it snowed 6 inches here and it was a really wet snow then Friday and Saturday it was so warm there was alot of standing water.

BJ said that he had one of the best birthdays he has ever had. Sister Boynton, the Mission President's wife made him a birthday cake and all the elders pretended to forget his birthday and then they brought out an ice cream cake they had bought.

Landon likes working for Discover. Especially since they have a gym that he can work out in. He says he likes having a schedule to stick to. Maren is working some for Colonial House but likes to be with Brinlie when she can. Brinlie has really grown lately.

Larry had to buy a new C-Pap machine for his sleep apnea yesterday because the old one died. This one is much quieter. We don't know what to do with no noise to sleep to. I think he is about finished with his class. He had a big presentation yesterday that he had to give.

I was excited yesterday because Peggy Dixon sent me some more documents on Mary Pollock that will help me with her genealogy. Some of these documents are helping me to find answers I have been looking for for about four years. I am learning that the Lord will help you do what he asks you to do.
