Announcements from America!

A couple Announcements from Across the Pond:




Lauren and Aaron were excited to find out yesterday (we called first thing this morning as there is a 9-hour time difference) that she's expecting a......drumroll please......













BABY BOY!

   CONGRATULATIONS Lauren and Aaron who will become parents with the birth of this baby boy around September 17.  And of course for us that means we will BECOME GRANDPARENTS!!!!  We are so excited that they will be starting to raise a family and are residing near where we lived in Portland, Oregon!  Of course we will be returning for the birth of our GRANDSON and will enjoy many visits to the Great Northwest in the future! They are thinking of naming him Logan David--getting Lauren's Dad's name in there--isn't that sweet! 



Also, by way of announcements, our daughter Lindsay who lives in Charlotte, North Carolina, has been much......














ENGAGED with/to Diego!!!  (last names eliminated for privacy purposes since this isn't a private blog)  Diego is also a student at UNC Charlotte. They both love student teaching, Lindsay in art at Ardrey Kell, and Diego in Engineering at the University.  Diego is a convert who was baptized last fall and they are looking forward to a December wedding in the Columbia, South Carolina Temple.  Speaking of Colombia, that's where Diego is from, and he and Lindsay will visit his family in Bogata this summer!

Needless to say, we have lots going on in the states with our kids these days giving us exciting things to plan for when we visit more frequently the second half of the year!   We're happy for our children as they celebrate their recent news!!!

  3. Congrats on all your good news! How exciting!
    We don't have anyone's email address, so I'm sorry I have to put this on your blog, but I talked to Sis Harding on Sunday about us not being at church this week and trying to find a sub for Nursery. I asked Erin Smith and they won't be there either, so I'm not sure who that will leave in nursery attendance, but it would be great if someone could cover for me! I was planning on doing lesson #15, Sabbath Day from the Primary 1 manual.
    P.S. I found your blog through Chelsea Beauchamp, she is an old friend of mine- we grew up together in Austin! She just let me know the other day that we have a mutual acquaintance- you guys! What a small world!
    See you next Sunday, thanks!

  4. Wow, what a small world it is! I can't go anywhere without knowing someone who knows someone in our ward--or branch--even in Poland! Asia said with the Holiday on Monday the attendance would be low, they'll be gone as well! Hey, did Sister Harding invite you guys to join us for lunch on Friday? Does she have your phone number? There's a great chance we won't have others in nursery, but we'll cover if needed. I'll get your email or phone number from Sis. Harding! Dziekuje!
