Hi family and friends. The reason I have limited viewers to our blog is that we were getting some strange comments from people we didn't know. So I hope you enjoy the blog whenever I add anything to it. I am just not a regular blogger. DAH!

Just a little news for now. We just found out Amy will be going through some surgery in Boise for a "large cantalope" size cyst of some kind in her abdoman. The doctors are not sure what it is or how it developed. Pray for her and we will keep you posted.

Rachel went to Boise to a specialist and found out she will be going through another hip surgery two weeks from today. We are so sad and yet relieved. Sad, thinking of the whole experience again and relieved that they will be able to correct the hip joint again as much as possible.

Clyde was released as Bishop last Sunday. He served a little over five years in that position. Again, sad and yet relieved. Bitter / Sweet experience. We hope we will adjust easily. They put him on the High Council. He will be great!

On another note in that regard, our son-in-law (Dana's husband, Russ) was sustained as a counselor in the new Bishopric. We are so happy for them. We love Russ! It will probably be tough on the family just a little, like it is for Amy and Joe's family (Joe is a counselor in the Bishopric in the other ward). We are pleased with them both!

Ok, so I will try to post new pictures of the house. We are to the point of putting in the kitchen cupboards, wood floor and tile, and we just finished the tongue and groove ceilings. It is really coming together.

Love to you all!!! Keep in touch!
