Well, Eric and I have started taking temple prep classes. We feel that these classes are important to take before we go to the temple. Our new plan is to travel to Idaho Falls and be sealed in the Idaho Falls temple to each other and our son Brandon that day. We also plan to bless Brandon the next day in Eric's mom's ward. How excited she will be to see her first grand child again!! We morned the loss of my Father's Father (FarFar in Swedish) this past week. We love him. We will miss him and for me it gives me greater strength to do what is right in order to return to God's presence and see him again there.

Well, Eric finally got ordained an Elder. He was ordained by my brother Johnny with my dad standing in the circle. How blessed we are! The Priesthood of God is wonderful! I cried tears of joy and am so excited for the next steps in our eternal progression together. We will be a family in God's eyes soon.

Well, we finally got rid of Garfield. Hanna cried and Eric felt bad but we both know that it's for the best. Male cats who pee on everything can't be good for your health. But, we have three beautiful little kittens to remind us of him every day. We hope that he will go to a good home where they will let him roam around outside and come inside when it gets cold. We just couldn't have an outdoor cat for fear of what he might bring home. Anyway, we miss him but we're glad we made the right decision. He was a big, fluffy, orange and white cat and he gave us kitties which is why we got him in the first place.

Hey it's Hanna.
I am enjoying being a mother. It is definitely a lot of hard work but it is fun too. Eric and I love our place here in Provo. Our cat Krissy had her litter a week before I had Brandon so the house is full of "babies". We enjoy them. We are hoping that Eric will become an Elder in the LDS church within the next couple of weeks so that he can bless our new baby boy. A lot of his family lives in Idaho Falls and we figured that since they came to Utah for the Wedding that we would go there for the Sealing. The Idaho Falls temple was the first temple that I did baptisms in and I believe it was Eric's first temple to serve in too. How blessed we are to have so many temples!

Hi Folks,

Its, Eric. So for all you people who don't know already, (with me is it possible that someone doesn't know?) Brandon was born 3 weeks early due to some complications with the umbilical cord, but is home now thanks to the love and protection of our Father in Heaven. If you want to know just how well he is, take a look at this video taken of Brandon and my mom below!



Hopefully, if all goes well, the three of us will be coming up to Idaho soon to get sealed. Hope to see you all then!
