Tafton's Here!

Tafton Jay Passey, 7 lb. 2 oz., 19 inches born 4/28/08. Cute little boy with a head full of hair! Sorry about the poor quality photo but it was taken with a phone. Not to be outdone by his Dad, Tafton had to make things a little exciting. When Ben was born he was wisked away to the NICU. Well, Tafton followed suit and is currently in the NICU at Ogden Regional. He did not oxygenate as well as they would like and so he was taken to the NICU for closer observation. He is doing better - they would lik him to eat a little better before they let him out. Megan will probably be discharged from the hospital tomorrow but I think Tafton will stay for a little longer. Keep an eye out on Ben and Megan's blog for more information ad higher quality pictures.

Soccer Chic!

Thought I might brag a little about our little soccer chick. Megan plays on a competition soccer team. Next year she will be in 9th grade and a freshman at Morgan High School. She was invited to go with the Morgan High soccer team to a soccer "team" camp in Cedar City this summer. It is a great opportunity for her and we are proud of her.

Spring Break

I am so ready for nice weather! We just got home from a trip to St. George where we spent 4 lovely days enjoying the sun, heat, and each other's company. It was especially nice not to have to meet schedules, hound Megan about homework, chores around the house and an escape from the Box Elder bugs!


We had a great time although we didn't really do anything very structured. Time by the pool catching a few rays. (you haven't seen that much white meet since Thanksgiving!) Now we are all sporting a little pinker skin. We went to the movies and took an impromptu hike in Snow Canyon. We also spent quite a bit of time just driving around and looking at houses and landscaping.


The girls also helped out the local economy by taking a few trips to clothing stores. We also went out to dinner at some nice places. Last night I had to sit strategically so I could see the TV in the bar area to keep tabs on the Jazz. The food was good, the game was spectacular!

It was a great trip and now I am officially ready for summer. I had to change our blog template to represent the great outdoors as I am excited to get to the cabin and hook up that $15,000 toilet!

We Love Conference!

Today we held a "Conference Brunch" at our house. We ( I should say Shirley, Kristen, & Megan) cooked up a breakfast buffet. After breakfast we watched conference on TV. It was great except simple math teaches us: good food + comfortable chair = sleepy boy! My grandson Aiden had to holler at me to wake up. It worked for me but not for Nate. It was great to see Kristen, Nate, and Aiden. Aiden is getting so big! I can't wait for him to follow me around the house and barn asking a million questions. Things only get better as Ben and Megan will have a new baby in about a month. We are excited for them.
