BIG NEWS!!

Guess what?!!
Nicole got accepted into a very prestigious internship at Lockheed Martin. She will be doing 6 month turns at different jobs either in the Bay area or a number of places around the country for the next two years. They only took 5 out of tons of applicants, so hats off to Nicole!!

A note about tender mercies: Nicole was transferred from a particular project several months ago that just recently got canceled (that means that many may loose their jobs). Her current project may get canceled in the near future too, so this move into this internship comes at a pivotal time. In the mist of life, I hope we look hard to see the tender mercies.

Brooke's Palo Verde High School graduation was held at UNLV's Thomas & Mack Center.

Brooke graduated from Palo Verde High School this past week.  She will be attending BYU this fall.

Elijah's Baptism

Real Men and their bikes. We headed out to Saratoga Springs in search of some good road biking. Connor and Gabe tested some mountain bikes at a biking park (their favorite cycles ran $6,000 each - dream on). Connor had horrible allergies and kept asking me to ride faster so he could get back to an air conditioned car. Peddling as hard as I could, I was no match for the fast and furious. Dave seems to think that it has nothing to do with my bike, just a "slow motor".

Cannon Video Time!

For those of you who remember the old muppet sketch... The kids have a CD with this on it, and love it! They sing along so often, we figured they were ready to take their show on the road.
