Changes ...

I don't do change so well sometimes. Sometimes even good changes stress me out. Justin and Andrea will be moving to Montana this weekend. They are out of their house in Idaho Falls tonight, and staying with us. We get on the road on Saturday morning, bound for Three Forks, Montana. Justin will be the manager at Challenger's pallet plant there. It will be a change for them, but it should have some positive sides. Justin won't be traveling and gone so much. Andrea and the kids will enjoy having him home more. They will be part of a smaller ward there, and so their talents will most likely be put to good use. Three Forks is only about three hours away, but still a change from 15-20 minutes. So that's one change.

The other great change this week was that Shaun and Krissy found out that their baby number three, and our eighth grandchild will be a boy! He is due the first week in June. That will be a fun addition to our family. We're all excited about that. 

Another change this past month has been Tad's being called up to BYU-Idaho 5th Stake High council. It will be a great place for him, and already has been an amazing experience. Krissa and I miss having him in our ward on Sundays, but look forward to the experiences being involved at the college will bring.

We love you! Sounds like these changes are all good. I wish we were only three hours away! I know that the college students will be blessed that work with Tad at the college. Oh, and I can tell that the 8th grandson of yours is going to be very special! I just have a feeling about these things:)
