Kenneth turned 17!


Today our oldest son Kenneth turned 17. It's hard to believe. It doesn't seem that long ago he was sitting on the floor playing with his trains and blocks. The years have shaped him into a fine young man. One that we are very proud of. He is currently working on his Eagle project. He is building doll houses to donate to our Stakes annual HEARTS for the holiday's. These doll houses will go to some little girls for Christmas. He spent the summer as a life guard and canoing and rowing merit badge councilor at the boys scout camp, Camp Steiner. He worked there for 8 weeks coming home on Saturday's for 24 hours. Long enough to wash his clothes, take a shower, eat a good meal and sleep 12 hours. We missed him while he was gone but were so excited he had that amazing opportunity.

Sounds like a wonderful way to spend a summer.

Wow I can't believe our kids are getting so old. Lexie will be 17 in April..... I can still those two playing together outside our apt. Time flies.... We'll have to see if we can't get them together after Kenneth's mission. :)
