I’m trying a little new approach to this blog. Because I don’t have much time and energy in the evening or morning to write, I’m going to try to write a week summary every time I have a day off. Hopefully, in the future I will be able to add pictures and videos but right [...]

Dear readers, I apologize for not writing anything over the last three months. Alisa and I got too busy between my work, the holidays and schooling, plus our additional activities.

I promised two weeks ago to post about our trip to Boise so I’m finally putting it up. I had to go to Boise because about a month before the trip I received a letter from the U.S. department of immigration concerning my Green Card application and an interview that my wife and I [...]

I’ve have one of those busy weeks again. Well I think I’m repeating myself because every week is so busy. This one was full with, of course work and school and midterm examinations. I finally received my diploma from the school (picture will follow soon) so I’m officially a BYU Idaho graduate with a Bachelor of [...]
