This year I have decided to try and turn my blog into a printable family journal. This means less of me and more of the family, hopefully. The problem with journals is I get behind and before I know it I can never catch up. I am hopeful this is not the case. I had great intentions of writing earlier this month, but was side track by the death of my brother, Jim. So, in his memory he will be the first entry for the 2009 blog.

Here are some of the families thoughts about Jim.

Jim taught us that education was important. He loved to read and talk about the books we were reading. When he was young he loved to play Tarzan and act out the books he had read. He LOVED movies. Anything to do with movies. He was well loved by his ward members. He had a strong testimony of the Gospel. He taught us family is important. He knew how to keep family.

All of us together, Laurie, David, Joel, Jon, Robert, Sally, Holly and Jim.

I am really sorry to hear about your brother, but I am happy to see you blogging more. I hope it will be happier for your sake.

I'm so sorry -- and I feel bad that I didn't know. I realize I have NEVER seen any of your siblings before. How cool to see you with them all. Keep blogging -- you may think your life is mundane, but it will either help us to feel like we're not alone in the mundane, or more likely, it will be different, and therefore, interesting for us to read!
