BYU Game with Clark Family

My sister Gay with husband Bert Blalock and my brother Ruben Clark join Ralph and I for BYU football game during General Conference Week. As part of the President's Leadership Council, we attended luncheon where Steve Young was the featured speaker.

St. George Marathon October 2012

The insanity of it all... Chris, Pam, Jonathan and Glen amazingly ran 26 miles to complete the St. George Marathon. For Chris it was his 7th one; Pam 3rd; 2nd one for Jonathan and first one for Glen. Plus Heather C. and Pam D. from church. Laura's family and I drove down afternoon before to cheer them on at mile 16 and finish line. Very impressive to take on and complete such a challenge. Chris qualified for Boston so may have to cheer for him on East Coast soon.

Chris' Birthday and BBQ

We hosted birthday party for Chris on Sunday, inviting all the new young families in the ward. About 35 adults and equal number kids. It was an informal BBQ in back yard with lots of visiting by adults and kids exploring playhouse, sport court, etc. This was certainly more fun and easier than me trying to personally visit every new family.
