Merry Christmas!

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU, OUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS 

We’ve had a crazy, fun, busy year.

Joseph and Erin built a new house in Herriman, Utah (about 45 minutes away) and finally got to move in. Yay! Their big news was baby Lilly (Lillian RoseMarie Moore) joining their family in June. She’s adorable and has the biggest most beautiful eyes.  Violet (5) started kindergarten this year and is thriving and loving it. She got to go to Disneyland with Auntie Mimi (Michelle) for her 5th birthday. Marshall (3) runs the house and both misses Violet and loves his time ruling the roost. Joseph is still recovering from his stroke but is doing well.


Michelle still spends her time in the pediatric Neuro Trauma Unit making kid’s and parents lives better. She’s the favorite nurse, favorite Aunt, and favorite world traveler. Many trips to Disneyland and a trip to Fiji kept her sane. Rumor has it she’s headed to Tahiti next spring.

Tina and Thomas have had a crazy year. Tina teaching, Thomas going to BYU, and Elanor turning one. Their lives are being turned upside down as Thomas is being deployed. They will be moving in with us the day after Christmas.  And in other news . . . they will welcome another cute baby in May!  Ela keeps us all laughing.

David and Molly are enjoying their time post-graduation and working hard. David graduated from Utah State University in Biochemistry in May and we are so proud of him.

Same old same old for Brent and I. We did get to take the trailer out a few times this year and spent many days in the Uintas camping and fishing. Brent was also able to go on another fly-fishing expedition on the Green River with his brother Dennis. They have so much fun. Jan and I stayed back at the cabins and relaxed and talked about our husbands. Ha. It’s been a year of ups and downs health wise but for the most part we are doing ok. Brent still works at BYU but is looking forward to retirement in a couple years.

We truly hope you have had a good year filled with love, happiness, new adventures, and true joy. We pray you are filled with His light this Christmas time and that you are able to share that light with others. We cherish our time with our family and friends and are blessed to have you in our lives.

Merry Christmas and hopes for a beautiful and healing 2023.

Brent and Lisa
