There is a quote: "LIFE IS NOT ABOUT WAITING FOR THE STORMS TO PASS.... IT'S ABOUT LEARNING TO DANCE IN THE RAIN."
With 12 children and 5 adopted from Russia, we have had challenges and trials along with our joys. We have decided that we must
learn how to "dance in the rain." We must notice and acknowledge the joys and miracles in our lives.
They exist daily -- we just need to make sure we do not miss them!! This blog is to remind us of these miracles and joys!

SEPTEMBER 14, 2012 -- FHS DEDICATION

SEPTEMBER 14, 2012 -- FHS DEDICATION

Today was a great celebration!  Phase 1 of our new high school is complete and there was a dedication ceremony.  It was great to attend.  Vernon and I had both worked on millage campaigns, Vernon worked with a group called "Build Smart" that lobbied to keep the high school on its current location, and I worked for 4 years to get an orchestra back in the school district.  This was a celebration for us personally for these efforts!!!  But -- we are very insignificant to all the work that everyone else did -- but we still celebrate the beautiful facility that our children will benefit from for years to come.  The new sports arena, performance hall, band room, choir room, and of course the ORCHESTRA ROOM are all beautiful!!




 Our amazing Joseph sang in the choir during the dedication -- and Govenor Beebee was there -- and then he slipped over to play in the band!!!  Go, Go, Go Joseph!!!!



 It was fun to see a list of the National Merit Finalists from last year -- There is Hyrum's name!!!
