Dane and Jessica


Our nephew Dane Holmes got married this last saturday to Jessica Goings in the Newport Beach temple.  We are so happy for them.  They make a gorgeous couple and we couldn't be more excited that he picked such a wonderful girl.  She is beautiful on the inside and out!  Congrats you two.  We love you!

My battery died, of course... only 5 min after they came out.  I was so upset.  But here are a few pictures anyway.

Chad's state report project

Chad is our third child to experience the joy of the 5th grade state report.  He is our first to chose Utah.  We all were at a loss for what to make for the 3D project.  After changing their (phillip and Chad) minds many times, the Salt Lake Temple won their vote.  It doesn't really matter that I built half of it just to have it torn down by the "artist" in the family.  And it doesn't matter that the artist wouldn't really let Chad help.  What does matter is that he got an A.  Chad I mean.  Chad got an A.  He was very proud.

Salt Lake Temple made with Sugar cubes
