Paul the Writer.

great shot taken by PB-- his new camera has turned him into quite the photographer. 

Paul always says that our strengths complement each other- which I think is true. However, he always refers to writing as my strength and not his.

But I totally disagree.

So I told him he should write on our blog about his most recent trip to the redwoods- and put up some of the very cool pictures he took while there (like I said above- quite the photographer).

Or maybe he should start his own blog (he is a very insightful person, I love to hear what he thinks about).

SO! I put a poll on the right column- and if you feel so inclined- vote if you would like to hear from Paul Bryan himself. 

And while we're on the subject- may I take a moment to say that I love that Paul very much. He's my best friend and I love hanging out with him.

Plus he's a sweetheart to me- the man of my dreams!

I'm a very lucky girl.

this is why Mormon's don't drink

Currently studying for my Olive Garden beverage test tomorrow.

Don't know anything about alcohol (just had to spellcheck the very word).

Just googled "on the rocks".

Not my typical area of study.

wish me luck!

PS: pb is currently driving back from cali- never been away this long (since marriage). miss him much. good prep for the big mongolia trip- i guess..

Paul is in The Friend!

See that handsome blonde missionary in the bottom left corner?
Yep! That's Paul (then Elder Frandsen).
His big magazine debute in the May edition of The Friend. (Page 19).
I'm going to buy a hard copy tomorrow.

And an update on Reuben- the diagnosis has actually changed- a cancer that has never been found in children before. So rare- and so unfair. To stay updated on him- see Val's blog.

So while we were in Pennsylvania (see below)...

Val was changing little Reub when she noticed a bump and bruise on his shoulder.

Sunday Paul spent with Val and Reuben in Hershey- trying to figure out what was wrong.

Well-- he's been in and out of hospitals the past week and a half since then, and today we got the bad news...

they think it is Infantile fibrosarcoma- a very rare form of cancer found in children.

Such bad news.

So keep this little guy (and his family) in your prayers please.
