Sharon & Dan

Things are hopping here. It is getting closer and closer and then Dan will be leaving for 15 months. Dan misses the new ruling of the 12 month deployment. He will leave a couple of months before the 12 month tours begin. His leave dates are around the 17-19 of May. They had over 200 other people who just got here from different areas that will be deploying with their group. So now there is lots of in-processing and then training going on till they leave. He will be working every Sat and Mothers Day unless they can get things done. Hopefully he can be here for when Scott gets to call home. They will get a 3 day pass the 13-15 of May so we may go to Shreveport or somewhere close for a couple of days. The other news of Dan is he is no longer Bishop. Lots of mixed emotions. It was a sad day when we saw the stake Pres at out ward. Even for me. There are a lot of blessing in serving the Lord.

Nick is still working at the pool as a life guard. We are trying to fit in drivers ed so he can work on getting his permit. He is anxious to get it. Nick and I will be going to Nauvoo the first of June. Our stake youth conference is there this year. We are so excited. We leave on a monday then get back on Sat. TJ is not yet 14 so he will not be able to go. Then the boys have boy scout camp the 3rd week in June. The here we come Utah and yellowstone in July. The boys will start School the 2nd week in Aug so our summer will go quickly. Tj Just finished with track. Following in Scott's footsteps doing shot put and discus. Most of his meets were with the 7th and 8th grades together. But when he competed with just the 7th grades he took first in discus and 4th in shot put. He is on a big growing spert.

As for me I am still doing Daycare and the beehive advisor. But changes in our ward are coming. Our new bishops wife is the young womens pres and she just had a baby. So I think she will be released and the young women will be reorganized.

Hopefully Charity and Aubrie will get their information in. I know Aubrie is happy to be there in Ut.

I will now end and send part of Scotts last E-mail. (Can't believe he will be home in Jan.) He doesn't have much time so periods are not used much. You will have to figure where one sentence begins and one ends. We love you all and look forward to seeing you this summer.
