Our Family

This is our entire family, it's grown from six children---What a blessing!
Families are forever
Since our four oldest children are married, this is our existing family. Vanessa is 19 and has just moved back to Utah to go to UVU in Orem. Vanessa is taking general classes right now and she hopes to become an obstetric nurse. Her first day is today! Sean is 16 and a junior at MTI, specializing in Engineering.
This is us with our two adorable grandchildren. Bridger is 4 and very imaginative. Kennedy is 2 and a little princess. To find out more about them, see Lindsay's blog.

All the girls in our family. From three to six, in eight years!



The boys, they have doubled as well....




Bridger' pose is so cute I had to post it!






Rebecca, our oldest child and daughter, married David Campbell a little over a year ago. While they were visiting us, Dave was offered the job as police officer for Salt Lake City. Rebecca works for Blue Cross Blue Shield. Vanessa is living with them right now, they just bought their first home. Rebecca, Lindsay and Jordan all live a mile apart from each other which is a mile away from where we lived as well.





Lindsay, Jeremy and Bridger and Kennedy. They just moved into their new home last spring and Jeremy is able to bike to and from work everyday providing the weather cooperates. Jeremy is a civil engineer for the city of South Jordan and is finishing up his last semester for his Master's degree. Lindsay stays home with the children and is a loving and caring mother, which is one of the most difficult yet most rewarding job ever! She designs web blogs and creates quilts and decorates their home in her spare time...








Jordan and Kim have been married for over two years now. Jordan is an animal control officer for the city of West Jordan and is currently working on his post for police training. Kim works for SOS staffing and is very efficient at her job. She is working on he first quilt. They are the parents of two Rhein Weimer dogs, Cheyenne and Raleigh.






Addison and Mabulane have only been married since February, the same anniversary as Jordan and Kim! Mabulane moved here from Lesotho, Africa, and just recently got her driver's permit. Addison has a job at parks and rec for the county and is looking for something more stable with benefits. He wants to pursue his education in Public Administration.
Well, that's our family, a brief description.......we are so proud of our family and the wonderful and responsible adults our children have become. We are looking forward to what the years bring us.....and of course all the grandchildren and spouses we have yet to know!
