The Beckstead Family

Hello, How is everyone doing? Not much is going on here in the big city of West Valley. We took Sesha to see the movie WALL-E. It was a different show. It was cute but Sesha lost interest in the movie about 1/2 was through and was running through the theater. So I don't know that we will take her to another movie for a while. They played the preview for Madagascar 2. We can't wait until 11.07.08. (we are going to see it on opening day hopefully)
So you all saw that Shelby and Jake are moving. Hopefully they will keep posting to our blog. Shelby has her own blog now. It is pretty cool.
Well not much else is going on. Keep smiling and Keep in touch.

Well Jake and I are going to be moving on Sunday and our Internet and phone will be disconnected. We will keep in touch over the blog when we moved. I should have a computer when I get there. I am also getting a laptop for Christmas so when I get that I will be able to do more with my blog and put more pictures. I have glasses now they are so cute. Life here has been very hectic, with the packing and all. In case some of you don't know my e-mail is sportygirl70@yahoo.com and Jake's is jake4horses@yahoo.com We really miss all of you. When we get more pictures I will try to post them to the blogs mine and this one. I hope that you all have fun camping for Grandpa's birthday, I wish we could be there you guys will have to take lots of pictures and put them on here. Well I have to go pack some more. We love you all
Love Jake & Shelby

Hello Family,
It was good to see so many of you at Brooky's party. I took some time on Saturday to go see my sister Dauna, and to get some plants for my yard. She has a nice yard with alot of plants, and her and Richard enjoy the garden. She even has a milk weed in her yard. They are supposed to draw a certain kind of butterfly to the yard. I haven't seen a milk weed for a lot of years. It reminded me of Benson.
We are getting ready for the camp out and so I just wanted to know who is coming and when you are coming. Dad got the trailors water pump fixed and he is trying to fix the door tonight so hopefully we can get it to the camp spot by thursday. Sarah and Nick are coming friday night, and Matt and Em are coming up on Saturday. Nick is going to hall our 4 wheelers up to the camp. Thanks Nick!!!!!
Our grass is looking better in our back yard and our fence does look good. We haven't finished it yet but what else is new. Time just seems to get away from us! Well, let us know when or if you are coming. We love you all and hope to see you all there.
Okay.. so I ended up getting some help from my friend Trisha.. she is actually our cousin! Small world! But I now know how to do a little more!! YAY!
Yesterday Dylan started his new sitter! I was nervous how he would do.. or rather how I would do! It went real well!! I feel so good about where he is and how Merinda is with him. She said how much fun he is.. and asked like every one else if he is really this happy ALL the time!! It made me so proud and YES he really is!! We have been blessed with such a good little guy! He is getting so big and enjoying eating! HE is a PIGGY (just like his Mom)
I hope you are all enjoying these cooler nights!! I know I sure am.. cooler weather means FOOTBALL. Matt has his first game this Thursday! Good luck to him. He thinks they should be pretty good this year. I'm not sure if I have mentioned it or not but Matt was named the Preston J.V. Head Football coach! Congratulations to him!!
We love you all and are so excited for the camp out this weekend! My boss Paul Davis just got back from Alaska and yes he brought all of us back some fresh halibut so I will be bringing some for us to try out!! Love you all
the Shumway family
