Background

In our church whenever you move into a new ward (the unit of church members in a certain geographical area that attend the same meetings together) it is often customary that you speak in Sacrament meeting to sort of introduce your family to everyone. We moved here a little over two months ago and have lucked out so far. I did think it might be appropriate to introduce my family to this blog to sort of give a background.

Whitney the Wife:

I lived in several different cities as a child, but the majority of my growing up years were done in Lehi, Utah. I graduated from Lehi High School and then moved down to Provo, Utah to attend Brigham Young University. I graduated with my B.A. in 2008 and finished my M.Ed at the University of Utah earlier this month. I am not particularly athletic but I do enjoy sports. I do not play any instruments, but I did sing in a few choirs in my youth. I have never been a 'runner' but have tried on and off for the past six years to become one. I'm hoping that since I'm done with school that now is the time for the runner in me to finally emerge.

Todd the Husband:

Todd was born and raised in San Diego County. He served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to Sao Paolo, Brazil. He graduated from Brigham Young University in 2010 and is just beginning his Master's degree. He plays the trombone and sings extremely well, though he would never volunteer that information. Todd loves to read and watch/play sports. He is the best.

Becket the Little Man:

Becket was born October 7, 2010. He is a feisty little boy with lots of personality. While just learning to sleep through the night, he has always been a pretty good napper. Becket's current interests are ceiling fans, kitty cats, and picture books.
