September





September began with Ruby's baptism. 




After the baptism we filled our tummies with yummy pizza and then it was off to the sand dunes...








We celebrated four this month!
Brielle and Lincoln both turned 12.


Brielle on the 6th...
...and Lincoln on the 12th.



It was 25 years for Seth on the 19th...


...and 46 years for Shelley on the 28th.






As for 'here, there, and everywhere', Shelley flew to Utah to cheer Seth in the Big Cottonwood Canyon Marathon.





The GCGs traveled to Branson where they relived the final day on the Titanic, did some cave exploring, and went on a sunset river cruise.



And, while we're talking about the GCGs, 

Geoff was appointed interim GFO of Orthofix. 

Mac also kept busy with volleyball (even wearing Erin's #8) and dove hunting.

The RJMs continued to enjoy the 'endless summer' in Texas.


It wouldn't be a Blog post without the 'running cousins' entries. 
So here they are!!!!😂😂


 (Peach Days)








And speaking of cousins...there was Homecoming for Sean, Tyler, Esplan, Finn, and Erin.





Meanwhile, up in Idaho...
...it was hiking, cousin game night, and kidney stones.😖

Morgan/Layton had its events, as well.
We got our very own McDonalds this month. We've eaten there once but Esplan and his friends are keeping them in business, if ya know what I mean!!

The NJMs got a new car - a Kia Telluride.

It was 'Back to School' for Kimba.

We enjoyed our quarterly 'Brazil Fix' with the Vittorazzos and Browns. 

And Bruce finally received an 'all clear' from his doctors and headed to Hawaii.
His address is
65-1243 Laelae Place
Kamuela, Hawaii 96743

That's mostly it for the ninth month of 2023. 
So, until October, let us remember..































April

  Seven birthdays this month - count them! Nathan celebrated year 49 on the 1st. Elder Sean turned 20 on the 7th. Happy 25th birthday to Emm...
