Elder Steven J. Brough

When Elder Brough, General Young Men President, visited St. George he felt impressed to visit personally in private homes and came to Dave and Chantel's to take to these three Young Men.

What an incredible privilege for Juan, Zack and Tanner.

He encouraged them to remain faithful and to prepare to serve missions.

When he returned home he sent a marvelous letter stating his confidence in this Young Men.

I love these three boys and know they can contribute and become much more than they believe they can at the present time.  I know there is grace that enables us to do all that is asked of us by God.

Shorthand

As I was cleaning, purging and organizing my files today these items brought a smile to my face.  I'm so glad I can still read shorthand - a real asset to me in my life but totally obsolete today.

What great memories all of this bring of school days, college, and work in law offices.

Bountiful Hills Ward Relief Society Presidency

Susan Schmutz had a lovely brunch at her home to mark the end of three years of service together in the Bountiful Hills Ward Relief Society Presidency.  Susan has been an amazing President and it was such a privilege to serve as her counselor with Arlene Alvey as her other counselor.  Annette Newman and Elaine Parker have added great insight, experience and spirituality.  I will miss meeting often with each of them.

Juan Carlos Ochoa Markel is Ours

Chantel's family keeps growing.

We were all so excited that Juan has now been sealed to our family.

It's been many years coming.  We first meet him when he was a one year old.

I'm so glad Kim and Julie (and Tom) could be at the St. George Temple with us.

Autumn Happenings

Do you think Chase is proud of his new-to-him super nice Lexus?

I love the way the new plantation shutters look at our SG home.

It's always fun to have lunch with family, especially when we can eat outside.

Dave is presenting all over the U.S. so it is fun when he is home. 

How cute is this of our dear Ellie.

Emily makes learning the piano magical for all her students.
