*Had our second baby (who is in 1st grade this year)
*Changed jobs numerous times
*Built a house ourselves
*Saw the passing of three of my family members (Grandma, Ben, Dad)
*Saw the passing of two of his family members (Grandpa and Grandma Martin)
*Attended many a family reunion
* Travelled to Las Vegas and Hawaii together*Attended many school performances and field trips
*Graduated from BYU-Idaho with a Bachelors and two Associate degrees
*Housed many pets (both domestic and wild)
*Enjoyed hunting, camping, fishing, laughing, reading
*Purchased enough vehicles to have our own used car lot on our property
*Planted gardens
*Watched the seasons change way too quickly
*Experienced the attacks of 9/11
*Watched the Rexburg Temple from announcement to dedication
