This is our story.


Hello everyone.

This is kind of weird. I have always wanted to be a writer and write great stories for the masses, and make millions of dollars. I guess the best way for that to happen, is for me to start at least some writing. As many of you know, Richard and I live in Sanpete county, and have been living here for about 3 years this November. I really didn't think that I would like it here, but after about a week, I told Richard, I never wanted to see Utah county again. Our neighbors are great, and there are lots of chickens and fresh air all around.

Richard and I were talking this afternoon about how when we first moved here, we would always hear the roosters. It seemed to us that they would crow all times night, or day. Now we don't even notice the noise, it's cars we notice now. Traffic catches our attention, chickens, horses and geese are that are all apart of the scenery now.

Will, our son, is growing up fast. He had such a hard time speaking for a long time. He speaks very well now, although sometimes he resorts to grunts and groans. It is nice to have him ask for things. In fact he just came up to me and asked if he could play a game on the computer. I told him that he would have to wait until I was finished here.

I just got through reading the book Roots, by Alex Haley, and yes it again sparked my interest in family history. I figured out why I loved that story so much, it's because the family history I have been working on for years come from Virginia, and most of the book takes place there. I will let you know if I get anywhere with it. I implored a sister in my ward this morning, and she has been helping me with it today. I am lost for the most part on how to find records on family and such.

Lisa, I love your blog!!!! I can not believe how big Will is getting. I started to think back to those pre-pregnancy days. Don't those see like an eternity ago? Keep writing. You are awesome. I am grateful to count you as a friend.
