Hi everyone I am back to the land of blogging... I think? I have had a few people tell me to get my act together and get back to blogging. I have not blogged since last April WOW! I will try and update you with a few highlight of the last year. We got a dog in August named Bolt from my parents he is a pug/peakinees mix. The kids love him, he is a good dog, except when he gets out the front door then he lives up to his name Bolt. Grant was baptized the first of October. Brookie turned 6 on October 8th and started Kindergarten as well. Grant had ear sugary the first of Nov. to fix a whole in his ear drum. We almost were blessed with baby Number 5, but they Lord decided that 4 is a good number for us, we are sad but we are blessed with 4 other cute kids. We have had a lot of teeth lost in our house between Grant and Brooklyn. We had a great Christmas. We went to St. George for New Years and Easter and had a great time. Craig turned 3 in January. Grant took First place in his first pinewood derby. I don't think he understood he got first though, I think he was just so glad he got to keep his car he had worked on. Our sweet Grandma Marian Stringham returned to her Heavenly Father on Feb 25. She was a wonderful lady and is missed very much. On a happier note Rylan Neve turned 10 and Dad Stringham turn 60 on Monday May 24th. We threw dad a surprise party on his birthday, he thought he was coming out to our house just for dinner with us, but we had 15 more people hiding in the kitchen they yelled surprise and he said "what the honk", it was funny. I really think he was surprised. Mike made a DVD biography of his life it turned out great. It was a nice tribute to his dad. Grant also received his bobcat in scouts. Brinlee graduated from pre-school she is an official kindergartner after July 23rd. That is about it. I have pictures below enjoy, the last pictures with the hose is how we get our pool warm in case you are wondering. Hope you all stayed awake for that.
