Fun In Sparks, NV



Sarah and I went to Sparks, Nevada over the weekend to welcome home our grandson, Johnny, from his mission in Guatemala. While we were there they decided to celebrate Jordan's birthday a couple of days early. We had a great time but we are worn out. We don't plan on much travel for the next few months after all we've done lately.

Elder Billie's Return


Our oldest grandson, Johnny, got home from his mission yesterday. Holly emailed me this picture. We're headed out to Reno this weekend to see him.

Parker and Ryan


Sarah took a neat photo of Parker and Ryan playing a video game while she was down there a while back. It's so cute it needed posting.

Ruth's Kids





I've been after Ruth for several months to update some of her pics of her kids. Those included here show Joseph as Harry Potter, James as Spiderman, Ethan as Obi Wan Kenobi, and Maddison as Minnie Mouse for Halloween. I took while we were out there in late October.

Grandkids





The joy of our life is our grandchildren. Number 20 is expected in June. This post shows pictures of a recent trip to Oregon. We visited the kids school and got pics of Raven singing in her choir and Wyatt in a class play as Daniel Boone. The kids have two birds at home that they enjoy. The pic of Levi show him holding one. I can't remember if it's Bert or Ernie.

Next Post


We also recently took a second trip to Florida for the National School Boards Convention. While there we went back to Siesta Key Beach which we discovered on a earlier trip with our friends Gary and Cathy Kennedy. We had to go back.

Ron receiving Tech Savvy Supt. Award

We're Finally on the Web!

Okay, I'm learning a lot trying to get this up and running. I may have to call some of my kids to learn how to do things the right way. Just be happy that I'm getting it done.

In February Ron was recognized as one of ten superintendents nationally to receive the Tech Savvy Superintendent Award. We traveled to Tampa, Florida for the event.

On the way to the award presentation Sarah and I decided to walk part of the way. We walked by a beautiful waterfall in the middle of the town square.

That evening I had a surprise for Sarah. Since we were in the air on Valentine's Day I took her on a dinner cruise the next night. One of the pictures shows the two of us on the boat.
