Thanks to Brooke, we finally have a BLOG!

Hello, to all our family and friends! We are now official bloggers, thanks to Brooke's patience while walking me through the steps!

We snapped this picture (a self-portrait), well actually Tyler took it...he has the longest arms, right after church yesterday. Brooke said, "I need a picture of the three of you" and we didn't have one, so this is the result. When we get a better one, we'll post it. Or maybe, at our age they don't get better. Good thing Tyler gets more and more handsome each day. He makes up for his old parents!

And actually, Tyler looks pretty great for having his wisdom teeth out on Friday! It's just not right if your cheeks don't swell up like a chipmunk's...but his didn't...lucky dog.

But we're all busy with church callings. John's in the YM Presidency, Tyler is a counselor in his Priest's quorum and I was just made YW President, so my head is still swirling. I just hope I remember everything Zefa taught me! She was a great teacher and friend! I miss her...

Guess you all heard that the Kansas City area is getting a new temple!! We're all beside ourselves around here. Our new temple will be in Shoal Creek just outside of Liberty, MO. It's about 40 minutes from here....and that's alot better than 4 hours (which is how long we travel to the St. Louis Temple.) It will be heavenly, literally...

John loves his job at Farmer's. He's a regular as a Training Instructor. I'm busy being an Early Childhood para and Tyler is doing great in school and thriving...and yes, Brooke and Spencer, he's been practicing his driving every morning to and from seminary. He has to have 10 night driving hours among the 50 required hours before he can get his license. And just as soon as I can figure out how to post his homecoming pictures on here, I will...See ya...

Woo Hoo, Welcome to the Blog world, glad you've finally joined us. You guys sound very busy, but I do expect you to take time at least once a week to update for all of us. Love you.

Well it's about time you posted something. I kept getting a broken link every time I tried to check your blog.

Great, now we have to compete with a temple as well. Now you'll never be back.

I know that's touchy but I don't care because you all belong in AZ.

Brooke will be mad if I don't point out that's Wayne who made that last comment.

We are super excited about the new temple also. We live in Liberty so it will literally be 5 minutes from our house. You all look great by the way! Ashley (Ball) Martin
