We live in a busy household! I'm not sure what is more consuming, our seven children or a husband running two companies. Clark was asked to step on board the Deseret News earlier this year to get it running more efficiently. This would have been a big job in and of itself but he was asked to do this while at the same time continuing to run the church's media company, Deseret Digital Media (over deseretbook.com, KSL.com, and deseretnews.com). I'm glad it's him and not me because I'm not sure how he responds to so many emails & employees while keeping up with a changing newspaper every minute of the day.
When I think of all of this, I am happy to be the one who is chasing after our seven very active and energetic children (James-14, Paige-10, John-8, Emma-5, Mary-3, Grace-3 and Lucy-2). It is always a new challenge as our kids go through new stages. Sometimes I feel a little bit split with a couple of children still in diapers but also a teenager and everything in between. Beyond work and family, we keep busy with skiing in the winter, football in the fall, swimming in the summer, and as much travel as we can sneak in here and there. We are planning a trip with our oldest children to London this summer and really looking forward to showing them the great city I fell in love with almost 20 years ago (can it really be that long??).
I love when I run into our Study abroad friends here and there. Just tonight, Rachel Pike's adorable daughter Savannah got a run for her money as she babysat our little girls while we went to a show with Kristen Lee and her darling family. I felt like I was re-living study abroad all over again! I love hearing about all of you and once in a while getting to be together. Hope this holiday season finds you all happy!!
