Our last days in Utah

Well we all have mixed feelings about leaving Utah. It has been a wonderful year for our family and we are so grateful to the many people who have made our lives full and happy. The ward here has been fabulous and the schools have been perfect for the children. I have enjoyed catching up with old friends and especially spending time with my mom. We can see now why we felt inspired to spend the time in Utah and we're so glad we did. You have touched our lives in so many ways and we won't forget you.


Magical Beginnings preschool graduation hat... fruit loops, card stock, and a paper bowl.

Ryan's class had a special presentation for the parents today of poetry and songs.

We LOVE Mrs. Otte!

I hate goodbyes, they've tended to get worse as I've grown older......go figure.

I'm so glad the decision was made for a year in UT. I too want to thank you MaryAnn for opening your home and sharing this year. Your love and kindness will long be remembered by your grandkids. Can't wait to hear the journey was safely made. Jean
