This past week has been adventurous for our family, and it all started with a few sniffles last week coming from little Ethan’s direction. We thought he might have picked up the cold that every other little kid in the neighborhood and ward has, but he progressively got worse and started to have weaziness in his breathing and seemingly constricted lungs. So, BriAnne ran him to the doctor and they diagnosed him with a severe cold, double ear infections and what we dreaded might be RSV turned out to be a touch of winter-induced asthma. They sent us home with 5 different prescriptions and a little machine that vaporizes medicine for him to breathe. He’s doing much better now but there’s nothing scarier than having kids get that sick! On Friday night I had the
opportunity of going with my dad, uncle and cousin to a Jazz game, my first in probably 10 years. We had great seats on the 17th row, and they beat the L.A. Clippers to a bloody pulp. After the game we partook of some excellent, calorie and
cholesterol packed pastrami burgers at Crown Burgers just a few blocks from the Energy Solutons Arena. Finally, on Sunday BriAnne officially began her calling as the Young Women’s president in our ward. It’s a big calling which she is a bit nervous about, but anyone who knows her knows that she will do a phenomenal job! She is excited to get to know her counselors and dive into the responsibilities.

I’m sorry to hear that your kids are sick. It really has been making the rounds…we’re crossing our fingers that we get skipped.
I’m so excited for BriAnne’s new calling. She’ll do great. I thought the calling fit her the minute I heard about it!

That’s cool about BriAnne’s calling. I would be a bit nervous too, but you’re right. She will do great!!
