Friday Flashback

The Four Musketeers

1998

Mike & I met at BYU in Provo, married and lived there while he finished his degree. 

My sister Lori & her husband Dwayne also met at BYU, married and lived there while completing their degrees.

We had our first babies within weeks of each other & our second babies within 6 months of each other.

Our kids went to the same babysitter during our working/school years.

JT and Chan attended the same preschool.

We lived nearly next door for several years.

We shared vacations, holidays, birthdays,

happiness, heartache & many "firsts".

Our boys were best buddies, partners in crime, inseparable.

Has anyone seen my upper lip?

a beautiful angel
a sweet little sheep
a nurturing shepherd
a glowing Mary

three distinguished Wise Men
one very happy Joseph
and our very own Babe in a manger
