Spiderman

This week our family was hit with some unwanted news with Devin. It looks as though he has cancer again. We are all devastated. Devin and his brothers (and his parents) are some of my most cherished people and I love them all dearly. Devin is so lucky to have such great brothers and parents who love him so much. My prayers are with Devin and his family as they move forward with this new trial.

Miss Megan

Meet Megan. I met Megan in a photography class at school last year. She needed a recent picture for her Grandmother, so we went out and got some cute shots!

New favorite photo location too... Behind Gurus on Center Street in Provo. We were there along with 2 other photographers so it's a pretty hip place!

Enjoy - and don't forget those comments you love to leave!

Sixth graders know everything

I have a co-worker whose wife is an elementary school teacher teaching 6th grade. Apparently sixth graders are really smart. He told us a story the other day that is maybe the funniest thing I have ever heard. It went a little something like this:

After grading some papers that the students had written, Mrs. Greer (the
teacher) pulled a particular male student aside. She was explaining to him
that while writing papers, it's helpful for the reader if the writer uses
paragraphs instead of the whole paper being one large paragraph. The students response was {insert serious, know-it all tone here} "Mrs. Greer, I've been writing papers for 5 years now, and this is the first time I've heard anything about paragraphs."

Is that not the funniest thing?
