13 Years!
Happy Anniversay Sweetheart!
We didn't get to go to prom together in high school, but here we are going to "Mormon Prom" this spring. It's wierd when it's your daughter taking your picture, not you parents! We had a great time and still love to dance. In fact they played some disco for Wayne and 80's for me.
There is no one I would rather spend the next 13 years with.
I love you Wayne....

WE MISS MOOK!!!
Allie has been in Las Vegas for a week and we have all missed her terribly, but tonight I get to go to the airport and pick her up! Charli has slept in Ben's room because she misses her; Amie has sludged around her "free" days without a homeschooler in the house and Ben flat out has said that he misses Al more than he has ever missed anything.
You get the picture. Allie, meanwhile, has loved being at nana and Grandads, sewing with Nana, catching up with Bean, Schmeagan and the Kuhar gang, reuniting with Jeanine, Julia and Jenna and all the folks from the Sunset Ward.
Anyway, she'll be back in the fold tonight and I'll sleep better. Missed you, Mook.
The Head Shot
My employer asked me to provide them with a head shot to use for corporate events and so our good friend Tami shot a few and this is the one I choose. All of a sudden I think I look my age...I mean that's the face of a man with 5 Children ages 6 -22. Yikes, when did that happen? Not the children thing-that I remember. Just the aging thing. My 30th reunion is in 7 months and just like that I feel like I'm almost 48.

Celebrating 40th in Hilton Head
To celebrate turning 40 this year, my elementary school friends and their moms, met in Hilton Head, SC at a beach house.
We went kayaking with dolphins, ate at Paula Dean's restaurant in Savannah, chatted and laughed until the wee hours. It was great reconnecting.

4th of July
On the 4th of July, we invited a few people over to the house for some potluck food and fireworks. We actually had about 80 people come by-our friends supplied a few bouncing houses and we set up a badminton court on the back lawn and cleared cars away from the outdoor basketball hoop and fired up the grill!
Even more impressive was the fact that no one was seriously injured by either the fireworks or subsequent lightning storm.
Ben's Baptism
Ben was baptized by his older brother, Jake (who also doubles as Ben's idol) and confirmed a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints by his Dad, Wayne.
Right after being baptized, while still in the font of water, Ben looked up at Jake and said, "This is the happiest day of my life."
Few things have ever made me happier.

Reunited, and it feels so good...
Throughout the years, many people have heard the legend of the two assistants to the president in the Peru Arequipa Mission--companions at that--with the last names of Hooker and Fagg.
On Friday, April 4, 2008, 26 years after their missions ended, Cesar Hooker and Wayne Fagg were reunited at the reunion of the aforementioned mission held at the Wilkinson Center on the campus of Brigham Young University.
The stories were true! They do exist! Today, Cesar Hooker is once again Elder Cesar Hooker, Second Counselor of the South America West Area Presidency and a member of the Fourth Quorum of Seventies. Wayne Fagg is the Young Men's President of the Alpharetta Ward, Roswell Georgia Stake.

Our house in the middle of the street
It's not unusual for us to pop in a CD when we head out on a road trip. Our children have been exposed (subjected, some might say) to "good" music from the 60's, 70's and 80's. The 90's just haven't been gone that long to qualify. One of our favorite tunes is Madness' Our House. These lyrics aptly sum up life around our homestead:
Our house it has a crowd
Theres always something happening
And its usually quite loud
Our mum shes so house-proud
Nothing ever slows her down
And a mess is not allowed
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our ...
Theres always something happening
And its usually quite loud
Our mum shes so house-proud
Nothing ever slows her down
And a mess is not allowed
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our ...
So, we decide that just living our life wasn't enough:we actually need to share it with you. So, if you're willing and able, drop by, drop in, pull up a chair and visit with us for awhile. Because, afterall, you're always welcome here.
peace.
