While life at Dataimage was good, I started to feel a bit stagnant and, although I hadn’t finished my Masters degree yet, decided to jump at the opportunity when a couple of former colleagues told me about a startup they were working at. I’ve worked for big companies and small companies and startups in the… Continue reading My Startup Adventure

We’ll Miss You Barrel Man, But Not Much
With BYU announcing football independence last month, this 2010 football season will be the last time we’ll see most of the MWC foes on the football field for quite a while. Frankly, I’m not terribly sad about no longer playing some of the MWC teams but I will miss seeing Wyoming’s Barrel Man every once… Continue reading We’ll Miss You Barrel Man, But Not Much
Fathers and Sons
This year our ward did a Fathers and Sons campout in the mountains outside Fairview, Utah. Given that camping isn’t my favorite thing, and given the fact that we had recently been camping, I wasn’t really thrilled about going; however, Sam was looking forward to it and I certainly have fond memories of going to… Continue reading Fathers and Sons
Camping Trip at Tony Grove Lake
I was busy with school this year so we didn’t have time to take a fancy family vacation. Instead we decided to go camping. Somewhere I had read that Tony Grove Lake in the Cache National Forest was a decent place for beginning campers so, without ever seeing the place, I reserved a campsite on… Continue reading Camping Trip at Tony Grove Lake

The pricing was reasonable and the contractor started on it right away while waiting for the building permits for the basement. Nancy and I were both… Continue reading New Shelves
Anne’s Birthday
(08/18/2011)Unfortunately, it’s been more than a year since I focused on updating the website. Now that I’m done with school, I’ve got much more time in the evenings so I’m going back in time and adding events that I previously missed. I can’t remember what we did for Anne’s birthday in 2010 but I don’t… Continue reading Anne’s Birthday
Pinewood Derby
It’s pinewood derby time and my turn to participate in the ritual of deciding how much work I should let Sam do on his own and how much work I should do so that we can do well in the race. Fortunately for me, Sam didn’t have much patience for sanding and balancing and those… Continue reading Pinewood Derby
2010 Spring Recital
The girls did a good job on their Spring Recital this year. Our only wish is that they would memorize their pieces. Caroline played Sky Blue and New Orleans Celebration by Faber Caroline Emily played the first movement (allegro) of Concerto No. 3 in F major (Autumn) from Vivaldi’s Four Seasons and Cherished Moments by… Continue reading 2010 Spring Recital
Memorial Day Fun
For Memorial Day Aunt Lori invited us to go boating with them on Utah Lake. I had previously been to Hoytsville to take care of Grandma and check Grandpa’s grave (someone had already mowed it and cleaned it) so we were free to play on Memorial Day. We met Aunt Lori and her family at… Continue reading Memorial Day Fun
Spring time in Utah
All I can say is, I’m glad I haven’t put out my tomato plants yet.
