What next?

So many of you know some of our many trials we have had this last 16 months. Today, was just another one. As I went outside to see my oldest daughter off to the bus for school, I noticed my driveway looked bare. What? Where is the pickup truck- checked the side of the house...nothing. It's gone!!!!! Long gone I am sure- all the way (17 miles) to Mexico. Why can't people just work hard for nice things of their own like others do? Why do they have to take from others? Did I mention the doors were locked and it had a "club" on the steering wheel? URGH!!!! It makes me so mad!
Here is a picture of the truck we will probably never see again.

Primary Talent Show

Aubrey and Damian participated in our Ward Primary Talent Show yesterday 5/18/10. Aubrey danced with 4 other girls to a song from Beauty and the Beast's Christmas. Damian played his trumpet. He played "Take Me Out To The Ballgame". They both did a wonderful job and we are so proud of them. There are a few pictures and then some videos to enjoy as well.
