semiannual update

I realized with conference coming i haven't updated this blog for at least six months and since there is a very small chance that some of you are still reading it i thought i would tell you a little bit about what is going in our lives right now. First of all we will be celebrating Reid's FIRST BIRTHDAY this week (pictures to come). He is so big now and has started to walk recently. He doesn't like to do it unless we are not looking but he's getting pretty good at it. he also has a new found love of sesame street--elmo in particular. he loves to dance to music and has this adorable little bounce that he does. He is really becoming a little boy and hardly seems like a baby anymore. he is such a busy little boy and he keeps me busy all day chasing him.:) Alec is teaching LDS seminary at Timpview High School in Provo and is really loving it. He teaches 3 different classes which is about 80 0r 90 kids. it's fun for me to hear about everything he learns, both about the scriptures and about the kids. he is finishing up his last class at BYU and we are both so excited for him to graduate in a few months! My brother Rhett is here on a medical school rotation and we are loving having him here and being able to spend time with him for the next month or so. We feel so blessed in every way and just love every minute we get to spend as a family.
