Taylor is 13. Happy birthday "tots"! Taylor actually opened his present the day before. We were excited to give him is first 22 shotgun. He was excited too until we realized we had lost the keys to the gun safe were all the bullets are. Did you know that you can not buy 22 bullets anymore? Well you could if the stores were not all on back order. Anyway he actually handled it pretty good. Then Ashley came up around 2. We were all very excited to hang out with her. We had lunch and the went 4 wheeling up by Mantua for a few hours. The kids had a blast getting muddy, playing in the fire and racing around the trails. We then went to dinner at Chili's (Taylor's choice, as it is our family tradition that they can choose where and what they want for dinner) We came back home and had pie instead of cake. Taylor picked Chocolate Satin from Marie Calendar's bakery. (thanks to Kevin and Ashley for picking up the pies for us)
We love Taylor and have such a fun time with him in our family. He has a way of being silly and funny and entertaining. He is also smart and talented. We are now in the count down until he can drive and help run family errands!
Tim and I
- Tim and Karina Sorenen
- Wellsville, UT
- Here is a love story I am sure you have memorized. I was working at the Chevron gas station on 21st and Harrison Blvd in Ogden, UT while attending Weber State . Tim lived just up the street from the gas station so obviously he came in often. Often being the key word. One day Tim came into the gas station about eight times. (Tim thinks it was less than eight so we could maybe go with 7 times) Anyways finally, after he had purchased multiple Cokes' I asked him why he had come to the store so many times that day. He said it was because he was waiting for there to be no one in the store so he could ask me out. (way cute) So he asked me for my phone number, I said no and asked him for his phone number. (you never know who you'll meet at the gas station) I called him later and he asked me to dinner. I said yes and he asked for my address so he could pick me up, I again said no and that I would meet him at the restaurant. It was a great date and I gave him my phone number and address after that. We have been together ever since that date in 1994 except for the time we broke up and I went home to Cali for the summer and he followed me there. (but that's another story!!)
