Well Happy Independence Day! I was very moved today when we sang the star spangled banner. I really really like the less sung 2nd and 3rd verse. So with this post I honor all those who have served and do serve this God blessed country.
McUpdate- We have been busy with life. I’ve been working hard, we have been busy securing BYU.com and creating a business plan to try to make millions off the advertisers trying to reach BYU students. We’ll let you know how that turns out. Thursday and Friday of this week I went up to Park City to help out my buddy from high school, Brad Porterfield, with some photography of a company he works with. That was tons of fun. For anyone who cares, Brad is doing well, although a little thicker 🙂 and is an accountant for a company called MediFast. Meanwhile, Joy is SO happy at home with Chase; she never gets bored. She enjoyed coming to Park City with me on Friday night… Chase is about 14 pounds now and is trying to walk. He doesn’t like falling asleep and is continuing the tradition of soiling his church outfit before church. We also really enjoyed watching fireworks with Mike and Amy and Kaylee on Sat night. In Provo the BYU stadium throws a big fireworks show and we liked it.
P.S. there are a few new photos in the random album that are worth checking out
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war’s desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav’n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: “In God is our trust.”
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
