two girls—two weddings!!

kassie’s fiance, matt kihara (1/4 japanese) is from boise, idaho–but he has been living in pocatello where they have both been going to school. he is 21 and by the end of next spring he will have his masters degree in chemistry–smart kid. he is gentle and soft spoken. tianna’s fiance is justin maier and he is from simamish (SP?) washington. they met in rexburg where they are both going to school at BYU-I. he is 22 and is already making alot of money doing websites on the computer—but he is graduating in something this spring. i am guessing they will probably end up living in washington. i don,’ know where kasie and matt will end up. daisy and david and little baby ethan are living in boise, idaho where david is finishing up his master’s in accounting so he can be a CPA. i’m guessing they will probably end up living in boise. leif and caitlin and echo live right here in burley not far from us. kraig and rhonda and their twins, landry and austin, live at the botttom of the street that leif lives on—-it is a hill and curves around—one end of the road starts out being called 21st street and by the time you geet to the end it is called grandview lane????? kraig also has a little boy that is just about 8 months younger than sylvia that he has part of the time. his name is sean—and i have never seen a kid that smiles so much. we are hoping that kraig will eventually get custody of him. his mother is not well, kraig has had someproblems in his past–but he married a darn good wife that seems to be whipping him into shape—-and he loves to play the big brother role to all the girls—-especially when it comes to them getting married—i love it! javonni has a little boy that is about 6 years old—but we have only seen him once when he was really little. they live in another town. the kids are all cute–but echo is a real little beauty.

well, actually, as far as our family being close—-javonni doesn’t speak to us and hasn’t spoken to us in years—and i raised her from the time she was 10 years old. she does talk to kraig, though—and she did invite leif and daisy to her weddding. i called her a few times in the past and talked to her and she came to the funeral when my step-father died–but she has since changed her phone number—so i can’t call her anymore. i hear she isn’t particularly nice to her own mother, either. she only inviter her to hr wedding because her grandmother insisted. otherwise, everyone else seems to get along fairly well. ian has some struggles, we’re not exactly sure what is going on with him–but he still lives with us when he is home—but he can sometimes be gone for several days at a time. he is dating a gal that is pregnant—but it is not his baby. actually, echo has a very ethnic look of some sort to her, and leif didn’t know caitlin was pregnant until she was 4 or 5 months along—she says that 4 pregnancy tests came out negative—but shortly after leif broke up with another gal, she thought she felt movement and took a pregnancy test that was positive and then told leif she was pregnant. we suggested a paternity test—but he doesn’t care—he adores that little girl and tells her how special she is and how much he loves her—she’s his baby regardless as far as he is concerned. he’s a good kid—-man, i mean!!! gotta remember how old i really am!
