If you have been watching our countdown calendar you will see that we don't have any more years left only months!!! We are so excited! Jonny is doing great and loves his mission. He just got transferred back to Pelotas where he was a few months ago. He loved it there and is excited to be back. He said that he is "working his butt off". (Those are his words). They are teaching 8 to 9 discussions a day, so the Lord is really blessing him. He was just made Zone Leader and he says he doesn't know what they were thinking! But he has grown so much and I know that he will try his hardest to fullfill his calling. Thanks for keeping him in your thoughts and prayers.

Easter Egg Hunt!
Since we were gone for Easter, we decided to have an Easter Egg Hunt when we got home on Wed. We had a great time with the boys and they had a great time finding candy! Jaxon told Grandpa that he wasn't a very good Easter egg hider, cause he put them where he could see them. We loved having everyone come and have fun together.
Weekend in San Diego
Jeff and I went to San Diego last weekend for a wedding. Two kids in Jeff's ward got married in the San Diego Temple so we went down to it. It was great to get away for a few day for a much needed break. We got to visit with Ken and Vickie and Steve and Annalee and their kids. We also got to go to the same ward as Elder Cory Hansen in our home ward. It was great to see him, but made me really homesick for Jonny. We had beautiful weather and had a great time. It was hard to come back to reality!

More Pictures of Jonny
Jonny and his companion in one of his area's. He loves it out there but it takes about an hour bus ride and then walking about 45 minutes to an hour. No bikes or cars out here!!
Isn't this a typical Jonny look? Notice how small the lawn mower is!!
This is a couple that they baptized last month. He has been really blessed with several baptisms.
He says that the little girl in this picture is his girlfriend. It seems like most of the pictures he sends he has little kids around him!

Jonny's mission Pictures
This is a little girl that Jonny baptized a few weeks ago and his companion. He loves his mission and is doing great. At the end of this month he will have been out a year. Everyone says that it has gone by way fast, but I don't think that it has. We miss him and can't wait for him to be home with us.
Jonny chillin' with his cup that a guy carved for him. It has a deer on it and he loved it.

More pictures of Snowmobiling
Jeff and I finally got to go snowmobiling together this year. We went up to Twigg's cabin with some friends for the weekend. It was great snowmobiling, but I was so sore afterwards. The day after we left, Coral broke her wrist!!

Crazy snowmobiling!
So now you can see how crazy the boys really are when they snowmobile. A few weeks ago Brett, Evan, Eric and some friends decided that they wanted to ride their snowmobiles up to the mailbox. The only reason Ryan wasn't with them is because his knee was broken. He was bummed! Anyway, the mailbox wasn't much of a challenge so they dropped over into west canyon, back up to the top of Halls Basin, then into Picnic. I know there were some other places but I think from the pictures you get the idea. Grandpa says he doesn't think anyone else has done that in the winter. As you can see they had a few problems but said it was an awesome day.
I think this is Evan jumping.
Opps!
I think that this is Eric and Brett in front of the cabin at Picnic.

Box Y
I went to Box Y with Mom, Dad, Janice's family, and Brent and Tami this year. Jeff and the boys couldn't go but they told me to go anyway. I don't really think that they thought I would go, but I really wanted to go with Mom and Dad. The weather was beautiful and Mom did great on her snowmobile riding in the 30 miles. We really had a great time. Look on Grandma and Grandpa's blog for more pictures of them.
All the accidents this month
This month has been full of accidents at our house. First Ryan ran his snowmobile into a snow bank. Then Kaelan fell off the bed and broke his arm and collar bone. Then Josh dropped his trailer on his foot and broke it. A few days later, Brett was feeling left out because it is usually him that gets hurt and he forgot his door was open on his dump truck and stood up and cut his head open. Luckily Stacy is a nurse and she took care of him at home, so he didn't have to go to the hospital. Josh went in for surgery today and everything went good. He will be in a cast for 4-6 weeks. Ryan is in a brace for 6-8 weeks and Kaelan got his cast off today. I guess that means that you guys are getting old, since Kaelan healed so much faster. So, I hope that our turn is over and we will be finished with the accidents. Jonny wrote home and said: "Everyone just BE CAREFUL" . I guess we kind of stressed him out!
So, everyone has been bugging me to put some pictures on my blog and I just keep putting it off. I just couldn't decide which ones to put on. So I guess I will just start and then it will be easier. This year has already been busy. It started out with Kaelan's 1st Birthday. It was way fun. You can tell he had a good time.
