02/14/16 Letter from Dad

Whassup Bryce!

I'm actually in church right now and figured I'd use a little down time to write you only iPad.

I have been super crazy busy the past few days as the playoffs near and state is happen g in other sports like swimming, wrestling, etc. I Added it up and we published 19 sports stories the last three days - definitely the most in a three day stretch since I've been at STGNews. I wrote more than half of those and edited and published the rest, including photos - yeah Hoppie has been busy too.

Hey, just two weeks away from turning 50 -- I'm so excited ... NOT.

Dunno if mom told you, but no surgery fo my knee yay!!! But I'm not allowed to play racquetball or basketball for six weeks, so boooo!

Binders blessed their baby today and Dallas and I stood in the circle. It was nice. They have two little boys now. The kid, Jacob, was cute. He just laid back and enjoyed the bouncing during the prayer.

Happy for you that things seem to be going pretty well for you. Did you ever hook up with the zirkers? Has it been gloomy/cloudy there. We are having gorgeous weather here - 70 degrees! Unfortunately, all of Salt lake seems to be down here clogging up the streets and the parks. Hate all the traffic!

Mom played organ today - kind of a last minute thing. Oh , and we got called to teach marriage and family relations class. That should be a adventure .

Keep having fun and growing spiritually. You'll be home before you know it!

Love ya son!

09/10/23 Hey, do you get to read letters on non-p day, p day?

First time trying a lime Pineapple was more pleasing than lime  Well...we went to Provo on Saturday and Sunday -- so your letter is a little later on Sunday than usual...but then I got to thinking...will you even get to see this before Thursday anyway?! So hopefully you're not sad that I'm late and all is well in CHILE.  It's a rainy sabbath here...which is weird cause we rarely get rain. But it is drizzly and rainy and our ride home was beautiful for 2 hours, raining for 1 1/2 hours, and then pretty good the rest of the way.  Let's see...what happened this week...Monday was Labor Day...so we had a day off work. Yeah!!!  We didn't have anywhere we needed to go and planned to have a quiet Monday but first, we went to this store called Sheridan's that is super close to our house. And we found some wonderful outdoor patio furniture. It took us 3 trips to get it all home and all afternoon to unpack and assemble it. So at 5:30, we were just finishing and kinda tired ...

11/09/24 The temple

St George Temple This morning I woke up early and continued to read "Your Endowment", a book Grandma Griffin gave me several years ago but that I never read cover to cover. It is of course, about the temple and the meaning behind the endowment and the other things we learn about in the temple. I'll be honest, a lot of it feels "over my head".  I am seeking to learn and know and understand more but I don't have a thorough understanding at this time.  Kathy and Steve Spring Yesterday I went to visit Kathy Spring. She worked at Washington City for many years and retired almost 3 years ago. We were good friends and she helped me in the court for quite awhile. Her husband died in January of 2020...looking back she is convinced it was covid but it was just before covid really became a thing. So it's not official. In about a years time she lost her Dad, her husband, her son and a grandson. Life was pretty rough when we were friends back then and I could see the...

10/15/23 Last Letter!

  Hey! Can you believe it?!  It's your last letter from home!!! This time next week you'll be one tired Hermana sitting in my kitchen with me!!!  What a week!  Monday was Columbus Day - so everybody had to work ('cept me!!!!) haha I stayed home and worked on projects. I took your car to the tire shop and had the tires inflated and then to Walmart and got an oil change then to the car wash and got the shebang inside and out and then brought it home and scrubbed it for a couple more hours. Wow, it was dirty and still isn't great! haha.  I also cleaned the pool and worked on the yard a bit and I don't even remember what else. I just remember I was super tired by day's end!  On Tuesday Emmalee came over and did Holly's hair and makeup. She looked really pretty. Afterward, we went to the Covington Home to take pictures. And the funny thing...it was decked out in Halloween decorations. NOOOOO!!!! So we found some areas and took some pictures and I think we got a ...
