Cliff Graduated...YEA!!

We had an exciting weekend- Cliff graduated!  Yea!  He now has a Master of Social Work degree.  Pres. Uchtdorf and Elder Russell M. Nelson were the speakers and it was excellent.  I think there were over 6,000 graduates and they filled up half of the Marriott Center.  It was quite a site to see them all.  The program was just like General Conference, except that there was applause at the end of the talks.  It was a good reminder of what is important.  They told everyone to rely on the Lord, pay their tithing, be worthy of the spirit, and have faith.  I really enjoyed it. 

Yea!  Go Cougars!  Way to go Cliff! 

This is at the college graduation.  Elder Todd D. Christofferson was there and this is Cliff shaking his hand.  

Easter

We had a fun Easter.  I thought Josh looked so handsome in his new church clothes. He definitely took his time finding the few eggs we put out on the grass for him.  It was good that it was a warm day.  Today we woke up to at least 6 inches of heavy snow!

Shouts of for Cliff who is turning in his last and final assignment of his masters program tomorrow!  

Ladycat State Champions!

We went to the 2A State Basketball Tournament last weekend and cheered on the Richfield Wildcats to the state title!  The championship game went into double overtime and Richfield won their biggest rival, South Sevier, by two points.  It was an exciting game! My sister was the MVP of the tournament- good job Jaquel and congratulations ladycats! 

 

These are a couple pictures of my sister- she always gets great blocks!

911 Emergency

We came to Richfield for a couple days and we had interesting morning. I was chatting with my mom in her bedroom and Josh was sitting on the floor entertaining himself with the telephone. He would push a few buttons and then put the phone to his hear and jabber. Soon, the phone rang. I answered it and they said on the other end, "Hi. This is 911 dispatch. We've just had a hang up call from this phone. Is everything okay?" I wanted to die! Of course, everything was fine. I apologized again and again. Then she hung up. A few minutes later, the doorbell rang. It was a police officer. He was just following up on the 911 emergency phone call. We told him it was just the baby that called and so he asked if he could see him. He thinks he wants to talk to him about it. We take the officer down the hall and into the kitchen where Josh is sitting on the floor eating cereal. The officer laughs and says, "Well, he looks a little young to talk to." We were laughing and telling Josh that the officer came to tell him, "No no no!" The officer was really nice and said that they always have to follow up on the phone calls, no matter what the reason. Good to know that they are looking out for everyong and we were glad they were so nice about a funny accident!
