Jacob and Preston Play with Professionals

Jacob and Preston had the opportunity to go on the pitch prior to a Seattle Sounders preseason match. The Sounders players encouraged our young stars. One of the Sounders remembered Jacob from soccer camp last year and another said "Awesome, dude" to Preston after he did a rollover. We sat next to our friends and it was fun to see the Sounders play so close to home.

Family History, I am doing it.

I have been goofing around climbing up and down the family tree.


I found that all of the death certificates for Utah for the years 1905-1955 are available on line so I downloaded about 150 of those for people on both the Davenport and the Lawrence sides of our family. Above is the death certificate for Edward and Clarissa Davenport's Daughter, Agnes Eudora.

I found that our local library subscribes to an online obituary service so I was able to download about 50 obituaries for both Davenport and Lawrence relatives. I designed the above obituary card so I could save each obituary as a jpeg for our pix pedigree.

I also found that Dorothy Hall's book "Davenport Ancestry in America...Descendants of Edward Wilcox Davenport" is available online at our local library, so I've been able to get a bunch of inforamtion from that. I can even save the pages to my hard drive.

All very, very exciting to me. Probably really boring to everyone else.

Watching General Conference

We get BYU TV so we can watch conference at home.

Here are some pictures of us watching conference, including the required conssessions (popcorn).
Joseph said his favorite part was President Monson wiggling his ears in the Priesthood session.

Caitlin and Jacob's favorite part was the note Sister Monson wrote that said, "Don't let Dad touch the microwave."

Preston liked that the note said, "Don't let Dad touch the dryer."

My favorite part was that my arms felt well enough to do a little crochet.
Roger said his favorite part was getting to know President Monson as the prophet.

Preston is the General Conference Superhero.
