Ethan Jeffrey Reiher

Ethan turns 6 today! I cant believe how much he has grown and how fast it has come! He will be starting the 1st grade and is very much looking forward to it. He loves baseball, reading, and Alana. He is a bright boy with a lot of energy! He loves to play outside. He is very kind hearted and good natured. He loves going to church and reading the scriptures. His favorite story is when Nephi and his brothers went to get the plates. Not only is it his birthday but its the day I became a mother. A day I will never forget. I am so grateful that he is my little boy and we are a forever family.

Ethans Hits!

Ethan started practicing coach pitch with Dad this season more in detail! He is getting so good!

Soccer and Tee Ball!

The kids have started to play their summer sports! Elliana is so excited for her soccer! She did so good at her first game! She listened to her coach and did what she was told. She loved to run and kick the ball! I think we have found a passion for her! She has been asking to play soccer sense Ethans first season 2 years ago! She was so excited to be able to play! She is good too! When she kicks the ball she really kicks it! I am so proud of my little girl!

Ethan LOVES Teeball! Best thing is that Craig is the coach! Craig loves it! Its so fun to watch the both of them out on the field doing their thing! Ethan is getting VERY good at hitting and throwing the ball! He loves tee ball and that makes it so much more fun to watch! He loves dad coaching!
I love being their cheerleader too! My kids are so amazing to me and I am so excited for the month of July!

8 Years

Craig and I have been married for 8 years! I cant believe that its been that long. We have been through a lot as a couple. Both good and bad. I do have to say our greatest accomplishment in these 8 years is our children. Both living and passed on. They make us love each other even more! People have asked me what made me fall in love with Craig. And its hard to answer. Because falling in love with him took my by surprise. I can tell you what things I love about him. One is his faith. He has faith in me, the kids but most importantly in the gospel. He has kept to his beliefs his whole life. Even when it wasnt easy. Also the way he loves me. Unconditionally. This makes me love him even more. I am the luckiest woman in the world to have such a wonderful husband! He is my life and my light. He is my best friend. He is a wonderful father. I love you so much Craig. I am glad we both lived worthy lives to make it to the Temple. He is my husband now and forever. I look forward to spending an eternity with you Craig!

Funeral Services

Grandpa had a wonderful Viewing and Burial service. It was sad but he would have loved it. A lot of people showed but and I saw family I havent seen in years! It was nice. I will miss Grandpa greatly. He was such a funny man! I asked my Uncle Steven why they didnt get flowers that squirted water. Grandpa would have loved it! We all laughed! I am so glad that he is with my Grandma and there 4 kids! He will be loved, adored, and missed by my family for a long time.

Ronald W. Jensen

My Grandfather past away last night around 11:30. He lived a long and great life. It was interesting to me that he passed away on his anniversary to my Grandmother who passed away 5 years ago. He chose to be with my Grandma. He was such a funny man. When we were little he told us stories before bed. They were all about Mr. Magoo. For those who dont know who that is. Mr. Magoo was an old blind man with big glasses that tried to do things on his own. These stories always made us laugh. When I was 11 we had a daddy daughter date in my ward. Both of my fathers were unable to make it. So Grandpa came with me. That meant a lot to me when I was little. These are my fondest memories with my Grandfather. I love him so much and will miss him very much. I am glad he is reunited with my Grandma and his 4 children that he has lost. Grandpa you will be missed, loved, and adored.

Elliana and her Casts!

Elliana was having a fun time jumping off the couch on evening at the end of Feb. She was jumping onto a bean bag. She missed and started screaming! You all know the scream of terror when your child has hurt themselves badly. The next day she was limping still so I called the dr. She had an appointment at 10. Craig took her to the dr and he asked us to wait it out the weekend because he didnt want to expose her to any radiation because she is so young. Well that was the weekend we lost the baby. Not fun cause she couldnt walk. Well come Monday I called the dr and took her up there. The dr ordered the x rays and we went over there as soon as we were done. Later that night we got the phone call that her leg had a fracture on the tibia. So the next day we went in and had it cast put on. She wore that for 4 weeks. It was hard to bathe her and everything but we made it. She got her cast off the beginning of April.
Two days later she was sitting on the arm of the couch and lost her balance due to the fact she wasnt used to being without the cast on her leg. She fell off and smacked her arm on the coffee table. And again I hear that scream! I was babysitting that evening and had too many kids to take them all to the ER. She wouldnt stop crying because it hurt so bad! Well Craig came home from school and took her. Come to find out she broke both of the bones in her arm. Where was Craig and I during all of this? I was taking a bath when she broke her leg and Craig was in the midst of telling her to stop jumping off the couch. I was in the bathroom for 30 seconds when she broke her arm and Craig was at school! I am convinced she has my balance and Craigs bones! She has now gone 2 weeks with no casts! We are VERY proud of her! I have decided that I cannot go potty without her! She was a real trooper and she is happy and healthy now!
