New Baby Counter...

Hi, I found a baby counter for the new grandbaby coming. It will be fun to watch the countdown.

And baby makes 3...

We are going to be grandparents. It is due in March we think. I'll let you know more after she goes to the doctor. I looked around at baby things in the store the other day. It will be so fun to spoil a little baby. Can't wait to see how cute it is.

Looper starts college...

Looper started college at Weber State on Monday. She is taking Psychology, Microbiology and Nutrition. These are prereqs to the nursing program and she has to have them done by the application deadline. She really loves Nutrition and thinks that her other two classes won't be too bad if she can just keep up with the homework and reading.

Long time no write -

Well, I haven't written since April. Probably because I couldn't figure out how to change my background off of Easter. A lot has been happening since the last time I wrote. We went to Disneyworld, aged another year and Looper graduated from high school. I'll have to post pictures later. Oh, don't waste your money at Disneyworld. We liked Disneyland much better and it's cheaper to get there. Seaworld was a blast though. Things are just too spread out in Florida.

A Wonderful Wedding - December 13, 2008

Blaster and Kelroo were married in the Salt Lake City LDS temple on December 13, 2008. They are continuously happy and very busy with school and work. Kelroo has been a wonderful addition to our family. She is exuberant and enthusiastic in all she does. She completes the Blaster man.

Another one in college - Proud Mom

Looper has made us so proud. She has received three scholarships so far for college. She has an Academic, Leadership and a CTE scholarship. The CTE is given from the Utah State Office of Education in Career and Technical Education. Looper is one of 7 that was given the CTE to go to Weber State University. She will be going into nursing. She now has over $6,000 in scholarships. Needless to say, her first year is all paid for. She recently passed the state test for her Certified Nursing Assistant and just finished her Phlebotomy class at the DATC. She attended class on Tuesday and Thursday nights from 6 pm to 9 pm after going to school all day. She starts her externship on April 20th, so if any of you need your blood drawn - head to the hospital at Davis and she will practice on you. It's amazing how part of the family faints at the site of blood and others can take it from you. Her dad and I are very proud of all her hard work. It has already made a difference in her future. Oh and she gets straight A's - ranked 28 out of 401 students. Sorry, but I'm a proud mom.

Trip of a Lifetime

Well, Monday we are heading out to Walt Disney World and will be there 7 days. Stanley has been their once before but the kids and I haven't. I'm so excited. We are also heading to SeaWorld. The last time we were at SeaWorld, Looper was 3 years old. She was so mad at Shamu for splashing on her. She said, "Shampoo ruined my hair!" I keep asking her if she will be sitting in the splash zone. This will also be an experience for Twister who has never been to SeaWorld and has only been to Disneyland. He is excited but always seems to get sick right before we go on vacation. I took him to the doctor today just to make sure he didn't have anything really wrong before we head out. I can't wait to get away from my computer for a whole week. Sometimes, I think I'm glued to my computer chair. Blaster and Kelroo will be sitting this trip out since they are busy with full time college and work. I'll have to post more about their wedding in December and attach some pictures. I'll post again when I get back and tell you all more about it. Love George
