Howdy

I am getting excited about getting together with everyone in a few weeks. Things have been going pretty good for us. We have been busy with all kinds of odds and ends and trying to stay cool as we are starting to get into summer in the desert. The other night I took the canoe out by myself and went to a little reservoir about 1 1/2 hours away. I did some fishing it was really relaxing and just what I needed after doing a few projects around the house last weekend. I have been building the kids a fort in the backyard - nothing like Michael has made or like what we had in our yard, but it has been a project. Anyways the other night after working pretty hard Carter came up and said "Dad when I get to be as big as you I hope my kids never ask me to build a fort because it is hard work and I don't want to do it." Anyways it was sort of funny. I will try and get a picture of it in a little bit. I don't know if it has been in the news or if you will see it in the church news but FYI Arnold Friberg died. I was talking to one of the guys at work today and i said - just imagine - he is up there saying "Wow Nephi - I was way off you are a scrawny little guy - and Moroni - you don't look like Arnold Schwarzenegger on steroids" Or maybe just the opposite Anyways I thought it was sort of funny.
