Neil is having a little fun on this last stretch of his Senior year. This group dressed as characters from "Clue" for Sadies. Here he is as Mr. Green with the revolver and Miss White.

Annaleigh at her LPN (Licensed Practitioner Nurse) pinning ceremony. Last Friday she rounded up six of us to "volunteer" for her veinipuncture demonstration and administering IV's. Very fun and very successful - only a little blood letting (good thing it was her trusting and adoring husband who was happily revived by her mouth to mouth resusitation. He was never really in danger of fainting - he's too manly for that - but , you know, any excuse for a pretty nurse to kiss you . . .). Wow, our little girl really did become a nurse. She's something else. She and Kyle have moved to Monticello and on to their next phase. They are such fun to be around - I'll miss them terribly but I'm too happy for them to wish they'd stay. On to the adventure of Life!!!!

Neil is an eagle scout. One thing I've learned about eagle projects is, if they do it when they're almost an adult, then they'll do it almost like an adult - with little prodding from and stress for parents. I doubt it would have been done so well two years ago. Even so, Yeaaaaa!

Cake Fun

My latest creation was for a bride in another town - her name is Crystal and she married a Frost. I thought it was rather meaningful to decorate with "frosty crystals".

Maya Jade Orphanage Project

This is a video of the orphanage that Neil's benefit concert is for. He has collected 1100 pounds of clothing and $800 for them through his Eagle Scout project. It has been a real meaningful experience. His cousin served his mission there and helped found the orphanage and this video shows the very children all the proceeds will go to. Come if you can! Many students (including cousins Kelli and Andrew) have been practicing for weeks to form a full orchestra for Neil's piano concerto - Beethoven's Concerto #1. He is polished and ready. There will be a lot of other talent that night too and you'll love the "suprise" performance Neil and Andrew will do.

Saturday March 22, 7:00 pm in the Manti High School Auditorium.

Sorry, I have no idea where the video went! Me and technology Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
