Yes!!!!!!!!Thanks to Trina I am on the blog. I hate being computer (illiterit, I'm not much of a speller either. ) But I'm learning.
I will update what is going on in the Reynolds household. Some of it might be old news to some.
Stephanie granduated cum laude on the 4th of June from the University of Utah in Speech Communication. She has her own apartment down town Salt Lake City; and she is just thrilled with it. She is now looking for a new job, one that she can love. She does extreamly well at what she does do but hates it. She works for the Huntsman Cancer Institute in their accounting department. She is not one to sit in an office working with papers all day.
Marquessa's heart proceedure went very very well. They told us it might take 4-5 hours, it only took three. They told us it would take a month to recuperate, it only took a week. Mommy and grandparents were a little nervous about it but the doctor said it was ok so Marquessa went after it with a vengence. She felt like she had been in prison for a month and a half. She is back to jumping on the trampoline, gymnastics, swimming, running, riding horses, anything that she can think of that will cause her body to move rather than to just sit and watch movies or read. She takes after her grandma when it comes to watching tv.
For those who don't know Patrick and I are serving a service mission at the West Jordan LDS Employment Resource Center part time. Two days a week, one evening a week and then the rest of the days are filled up with babysitting our two little granddaughters. They are so much fun. We are loving it. Although we do miss the just us time that we enjoyed on our mission in Iowa.
Right now we are on the committee to host an Education Fair which is taking a few more hours of our days.
Davina and Brian have purchased some land in Tabiona Utah, a tiny tiny little town about two hours away from us. They are excited to get into a new home. Right now they live in an even tinier town called Hannah. It is about 5 minutes away from Tabiona. Davina particulary hates it because it is right next next door to a bar which can be very noisy especially in the summer. They should be in their prefab home hopefully no later than August. They have one child, Kamilah born a year and a half ago.
Reid out baby has joined the marines. I told him that he really needed to start thinking about getting a little more education so when he does want to settle down and get married and have a family he will be able to support them. A week later he comes and tells us he is going to join the marines. I said "THAT ISN'T WHAT I MEANT!" He is excited though. He is going to have them pay for his machanics schooling. Right now he is working on paying some traffic fines that he accumalated and "forgot to pay". Then he will leave July 18th for San Diego and boot camp.
Patrick and Marnie are still doing pretty good. He is not selling cars anymore. He works for a company that repairs machines at Kenecott Copper. He made more money selling cars but it was not a consistant paycheck and it was driving Marnie nuts.
RaNae and Kurt are doing as well as can be expected in Mt. Pleasant. He has a job now that actually pays benifits. They are having a tought time with the school and Dylans allergies though. They just arn't happy with having to deal with it all. RaNae found out that at the end of the school year all along they had been calling him Dallan instead of Dylan and not understanding why they could not get him to listen to them. She is not looking forward to next year.
Sterling and Susan are doing great in Stocton. She is about done with her Masters in Speech Therapy.
They haven't decided where they will settle. Maybe Seattle or Montana where Susan's family is but they do not want to come back to Utah. Sterling will go back to school and finish his degree when Susan is working. He has his AS degree and will get his BS in Business.
Jolene is doing great in school and at work and being a good mother. We are proud of her. She is on the honor roll and will be a paralegal when she is done.
Shawn and Liz are the ones expecting their little girl this coming Monday. They live in Eagle Mountain.
I think that I got everyone. I didn't go in order from oldest to youngest so I'm not sure.
I promise I won't be this talkitive all the time. I don't want to put anyone to sleep. We are hanging in their with our share of struggle and trials and squables amongst one another but we still love each other and so far no one has injured anyone.
Thanks Trina for doing this. I miss my family and this is a good way to keep in contact. Maybe I will know about "family members getting married" before it actually happens.
Love you all Gayle
