Josh McAdams



I am proud of my cousin's husband, Josh. He had a dream to run in the Olympics and he did! He ran in the steeple chase. He didn't qualify to go to the next round, but it was amazing that he tried. He may try again the next Olympics even.

This made the Olympics more real for me because I actually know him. Before they were just athletes and not real to me.

His wife Whitney is also amazing. She has supported him in his running and school.

Leaving Wymoung and Provo

We moved out of our apartment in Wymont on the 26th of July, after three years. This was our first apartment together. It was very sad to leave. We made many friends there and hopefully we will be able to keep it contact. We had a great ward and a loving Bishop. Thanks for everyone who helped us move and cared for us.
It was also sad to leave Provo. I lived there for almost 5 years and was familar with it. We are living with my parents here in Roy (near Ogden) and though my parents have lived here over five years I don't know where anything is.
I also miss the Provo library. It has great kids' programs and story times all through the week and a great selection of books and movies (easy to find).

We are excited to move onto the next chapter in our lives though. Rex is still looking for a job. He just had an interview with the recreation department here in Roy and applying to a lot of different jobs all over the country so hopefully something will pan out soon.

Ian loves being at his grandparents' house. There is more room to play, more things to get into, and more people to play with (except not his age). He is cuter everyday and is talking more and more. He is a very active boy and hardly lets me rest all day (except when he takes his naps).

Breaking Dawn


I finished reading Breaking Dawn this weekend, just because I had to see what happened. It was so much like a soap opera. I don't see why this series is so big, it was not that well written and there was too much description on some parts. And there were parts of it that didn't really make sense with the rest of the story and were never really explained, like why it was so easy for Bella after she became a vampire.
It is a very easy read though, which is good and is probably the reason why a lot of people read it.
