Well for May we moved to Utah on the 8th to Orem. Our new address is 65 E. 600 N. Orem, UT 84057.
On the 12th I started my summer job in Salt Lake on temple square doing gardening around the Church office building. I never knew how many flowers that place had WOW.
Michelle and the kids came from California after being there for 3 weeks on the 18th. Then on the 21 Kyle turned the big 2. We had family and friends come over to sing happy birthday to Kyle. He loves all of his gifts form cars to a baseball mitt and ball from Rob and Tamara. All I can say is that thank goodness it is a soft ball because they love throwing it around the house. Scott and Kyle are playing great together and are getting funner by the day.
Our ward here is great it is a family ward but 90% of the ward is college students so it feels like a student ward. The funny thing about that is that our bishop is 25 years old. One of Michelle's old roommates lives across from us. The ward has been great and we have met some very cool people. One family has 2 boys ages 3 and 2 and the wife's name is Emily and the husbands name is Jason. There are some people in the ward who remind me of people back home or elders in the mission. Well I got a calling to be a ward mission leader, so this shooed be interesting.
I got certified in CPR and AED today for my DH. On Friday morning I was about to leave for work and I got into the car and... (a few months ago my dad was asking me if we ever changed the car battery? I said no not yet (the car is a 2000 year car) why? Well it should be going out one of these days. Then I said probably. My dad said it will probably not start one Friday before you go to work or school. I just laughed and said probably)... what do you know the battery was dead it just had enough juice to start, thank goodness for that. So I changed my first car battery on Friday, it was easier than I thought.
Well thanks all for now. Join us next month for another episode of The Hopes.
Love you all,
Jason, Michelle, Scott, Kyle, and ??????

You moved? Well hope everything went well. How do you like Orem? You enjoying your new job? Tell Michelle hi for me!
Jason I'm jealous of you. When I was younger I wanted to be a gardener for some rich baron over in Englend with acres of gardens. I guess the Church is the closest thing we get to that nowadays. I would love a job as a gardener, so plant a flower for me. I'm glad you're liking it down there.
That is really cool that you get to work on temple square. I once talked to a student that had your exact job. He told me the story of cleaning out the ponds at Brigham Park. They had to get all the fish out of the pond so they could drain it and clean it. They put all the fish in 5 gallon buckets (with water of course) and then put the buckets in a shed. Well, it took them longer to clean the pond than they thought it would. When they finally went back to get the fish, they were all dead. Moral of the story: don't put fish in buckets. That tip might come in useful soe day. :)
