Okay so our Brittany is one of those COLLEGE kids... spending all our money and living it up....
No seriously, she's doing very well. She is a freshman at EAC and is really having a great time. She is in a nice apartment with three other girls and some awesome neighbors and she has her own car which she uses to drive everyone else around... so far she isn't failing any of her classes (that I know of), and absolutely LOVES her music classes... especially Marching Band. It's her first experience with this and she's really having fun with it. She's also taking private flute lessons and getting better and better on her piccolo.
Taryn is a cheerleader! Only for the P.E. credit, but she is doing well and seems to be enjoying it. Taryn is amazing... she gets herself up (sometimes) early for Show Choir at 7, then goes all day until after cheer practice which ends at 5. She's also Freshman Class Secretary. She loves Seminary and seems to be doing well in her classes and is a very bright, responsible, sweet young lady.
On a completely different note... last week my cousin Debbie passed away... she had a brain tumor. She was 64. Too young to die. She will be missed.
I was able to go to her funeral in Goodyear AZ, and took some pictures of some of our family that was there. I really love my family... these are awesome people who have been a major part of my life, especially in my childhood, but I never see them except at funerals! I think that is wrong. So I'm on a quest to find them all and get back in touch. Cousins I used to play with but haven't seen in 40 years, for instance. Once I get a contact list compiled, I hope that we can get a reunion organized, maybe for next summer. Anyway, here's a slide show of the pics I took of some of the family that was there. They're not very good because I took them with my cell phone, but here they are. (Is this better, Kimberly???) :)

Yes, better. I have but one question, however: Why is it that marching band members can get away with wearing outfits that could only be considered appropriate for characters on a children's TV show?
Okay, I have two questions: Why didn't anyone tell me that we were related to a real live hippie/Hell's Angel/Willie Nelson impersonator? This is important information.
Children's TV show? Nay nay!! 'tis an Oompa Loompa costume!
And yes... good ol' Ned. :) Scary, but a neat guy.
