The Joy of Living in Nebraska




Had fun last night with the tornado sirens going off. While the real bad weather stayed to the west of us, we did get some real heavy rains, strong winds, and a little hail. I was at work when the alert was issued, so I had to bunker down there for about an hour or so until the alert was lifted. Stacy and the boys were at home in the basement riding things out. One of the fun things about living in the Midwest.

Spencer's 1st Birthday

Hard to believe, but Spencer is now officially a one year old "Big Boy" - how time flies. Here is Spence digging into his birthday cake:

Trying to Catch Up

Stacy and I feel bad that we have allowed this much time to pass without updating the blog. We are doing well and keeping very busy. Our family has been battling sickness the last month or so, but we think we have finally overcome the worst of it. Spencer got the worst of it and ended up at the doctor/hospital with pneumonia.

School is going well for all. Taylor, Nate, and Landon just had their parent/teacher conference and received outstanding report cards. We really have been blessed with sons who love to learn and have adapted very well to being in school. My law school days are numbered and things are getting real hectic. I finally turned in all the information & documents needed for the Utah Bar Exam, though it just gets harder from here as now I have to pass the test.

Stacy and Spencer are having fun together and seem to always be doing something new. Spencer is getting so big and active - time is passing by much too quickly for my liking. While he has not taken any "official" walking steps yet, he is so close to doing so.

Thanks for hanging in there with us and hope you are all doing well. We look forward to hearing from you.

Love,

The Hinds Family
