Time Flies!


We can't believe it has already been 4 years since Clay joined the Navy. In that time he has advanced in rank from E2 to E5. He is currently a Petty Officer Second Class (HM2). We miss family so much and hate that life goes on without us. ON the other hand, we have enjoyed our experiences and love seeing so many new places. It is exciting not to know exactly where we will be after each set of orders. We can't wait to get into dental school and be near family again.

Cute family picture... the kids are so little. It's weird that it's been 4 years. It seems longer to me, but maybe that's cause I haven't got to see you guys for 2 years.

I love the videos on your sidebar. I might have to copy and get my own videos for my blog.

I can't believe that it's been 4 years, I agree with Shelly that it seems longer. I hope that you guys end up closer to family for dental school!

Time sure does fly by fast. It seems like just yesterday when we were all hanging out with the Hancocks in Texas. Glad you are still enjoying it. Congrats to Clay on the fast rank advancement.

Congrats on the 2nd class already...you always were a hard charger. I remember guys getting bumped out at their 5 year mark because they hadn't even made 3rd yet. Anywho, you should load up some pictures of the frocking. It looks like that pic's from basic. TTYL.

Allison-Oh my gosh I am so glad you found us!!! This blogging world just blows me away. It is amazing what a network it creates. It is so fun to see your family. (although there isn't a picture of your whole family....only of you, Clay, Dallin,and your little girl) I would love to see the whole clan. We miss you guys too! keep in touch with us!!!
