Brown Family

This is what Taylor did his last week at home, before he left for BYU. Taylor and Rachel built this house out of cards. Time to move on Taylor! It was a neat house though!

We dropped Taylor off at BYU to start the summer term. We first spent a few days at Ashley's house. We loved spending time with Addison. She is such a cute happy baby. Ashley left for Phoenix for a few days and so we moved over to the Pleasant Grove house. While there Gina and I cleaned out Grandma's basement. We moved back to Ashley's house for a few more days of fun. Finally we drove to Hurricane and stayed there a few more days. It was such a fun trip.

Taylor's graduation was a nice event. He has a large class, with a lot of kids graduating that we've never even heard of. Taylor received awards for exceeding AIMS standards and 4.0 GPA.

I put away my Easter Eggs/Spring jar decorations and got out my summer decor!

I just looked out my kitchen window and was startled to see an elk in our yard. It is eating our weeds! Taylor recently attended the Arizona Future Business Leaders conference. It was held in Tucson. He won first place in computer applications .

We went to our cabin Friday night. It was extremely windy. Nevertheless we built a fire and cooked tinfoil dinners. Saturday morning we woke up----ready to have an Easter egg hunt. We looked out the window and found 4 inches of snow to go with the wind! We gave up on our hunt and went to St. Johns instead and spent the day with family there.

We had a wonderful Spring Break Trip going to Niagara Falls , Toronto and Palmyra. We were able to meet a lot of people from Parker's mission. It was a special time for our family.
