Steven Turns 18

Steven turned 18 this month. He is one of my heroes. His reputation is one of being a hard worker and we love it. Steven also plays hard; he likes to ski and bike, etc. He is also getting good on the guitar. Joe has been on the computer this week looking for just the right laptop for a college bound freshman.

Steven was an angel who played the guitar in the neighborhood pageant on Saturday night the 8th. Joe, Ron and Todd went over and pronounced it well down in every aspect. Gabe was one of the Wise Men.

Checking out BYU Idaho

Laurie drove Steven, GAbe and a friend, Amanda Floto up to Rexburg to look over the campus and assess the housing situation. Reed was happy to see them and show them around. STeven thinks that he could enjoy going to school there.

How Did They Get This Old!!!!

I was so delighted with these senior pictures that I wanted to share them with everybody.



Steven is studying to improve this ACT score. He would like to go to BYU Utah, but BYU Idaho would be a good option. Steven is interested in most kinds of sports. He plays the guitar and is
known as a good worker who does projects for neighbors including GPA and GMA. He enjoys playing the field with the girls.

Gabe would like to bring his already high ACT score up to be eligible for the big scholarships. He is on the Centennial swim team, has qualified for the state meet and found that he likes the long distance contests. He is looking forward to some water polo. He takes piano lessons and has been asked to sing for different occasions. Gabe has found he has a talent for expressing himself in writing.

This is Steven and Gabe as infants. Remember that Steven is from Arizona and is 3 months older. Gabe was born in Canada and is now a U. S. Citizen.

Although they get along well with each other, they take their

individual paths.

These pictures of were taken on the 2003 Trek of the Hickories Ward. Joe was the Young Men's President and participated with them.

Things are more than busy at Joe and Laurie home. Joe serves as First Counselor in the Bishopric and is over the Primary and Relief Society.

Laurie is in the Young Women's Presidency and works with the Beehive girls.

Steven's date for Homecoming 2007 was a girl from the ward, Amanda Floto.
