Monson News Update April & May 2010

This is late. Our att.net account was wiped. My new e-mail address is karlamnielson@gmail.com. Any monthly contributions sent via e-mail are greatly appreciated. Ryan sent me everyone’s e-mail address, unfortunately, his contribution was wiped out when att.net was wiped out.

Ryan & Doris

Riley will be working this summer before returning to BYU. Parker will be graduating from Flagstaff High and going to Southern Virginia University and Mary may be moving out on her own like her brothers. Doris and Ryan will have the house to themselves.

Sean & Jana

Another recital was successfully accomplished this weekend. Aubree, Erica and Elise dance in the contemporary dance showcase. Erica led the 3-4 year olds in a cowgirl dance and was one of the nightmare performers. Elise in the Magic dance and the Living Doll dance. She has great expression and dramatic flair. Aubree danced in several numbers as well, including music to Fame, a great dance music piece. I don’t know how Jana and Sean keep up the high level of performance with Creative Arts.

Kim and Cary

Teral and Eddie are living in a 4 bedroom house for less rent than their apartment. Cole & Kristi will finish their residency this month and be moving to Henderson, Nevada. Jordan may be flying to Ohio for these events. Stuart will be defending his disseration at the U of U and Allie should be finished with classes soon and beginning internships. Kim,Cary & some of the Walkowski family are on a cruise at the moment.

Craig & Sandy, Mom & Dad

Six of us, Mom & Dad, Craig & Sandy and Norm and I went to a Passover Feast given by Victor Ludlow at BYU. Dad was the oldest male in the entire room of 120 + people and was the reigning patriarch at our table. We passed around the ‘afikonan’ cracker and Dad had to bargain to get it back from Sandy. Her condition, Dad has to wash the lettuce in the salads 3 times before serving it for the rest of Sandy’s lifetime.

Craig, Mom and Dad drove to Denver to visit Conrad & Debbie. They talked, played tennis with Tim,etc.
