August Happenings

Hello everybody!! We figured it was time we had an update on what's all been happening this past month. Well, July ended with a Tayrien reunion up at Strawberry. Kathy, Ed and Justin went with Justin bringing his little friend Sammi with. Kathy drove and Ed read from "New Moon". Ed and Justin's first time through, Kathy and Sammi's second.(at least) The weather was much cooler then the Valley and of course there was plenty of food to fill our bellies. We enjoyed spending time with the extended family and got and gave updates on all the kids and happenings. It seem as though ever year we meet, theirs more and more of us. Andrew was there with his new little boy Charles as well as Alison with her fairly new twins. Erin Whitmer is due next with Britt not far behind.
That night, Kathy and Ed went and saw "The Dark Night", Quite impressive. We both thought Heath Ledger did a eerily good job as the Joker. It's long but very action packed and overall we gave it two thumbs up. Justin had seen it earlier in the week and raved about it as well.
Well, as of today. Ed, Kathy, Amanda,Samantha,Sammi and Maureen have all finished "Breaking Dawn". Justin, Sammi,Kathy and Maureen all went to the book release at borders the night before and picked their copy up at midnight. Kathy read it in two days. Samantha read it in one week then Ed just finished it. We are all sad to have the Cullen family leave our lives. For those who haven't read them all yet we'll just leave it at that.
Justin started school on August 4th at Desert Sonoran, and he loves it. He gets to where is Ipod while he works, and he skips lunch so he can go home early. He also doesn't have to go on Fridays. He really likes that part! He also started seminary at Mt. View this past monday the 11th. He rides his skateboard every morning to A hour seminary, what a good boy.
