News from the Hansens

First, Merry Christmas Season everyone. Hope everyone is enjoying a white Christmas. I am ,mostly, except when I think about going swimming in an outdoor swimming pool two Christmas' ago in AZ.
It was fun seeing everyone over Thanksgiving. We had such a good time. Thanks again Grandma and Grandpa for allowing us those fun memories.
Charlie and I would like everyone to know that we will be adding to our family! We are expecting a baby in July. We are very excited. I must say that I am more excited to get through this morning sickness more than anything.
Charlie and I are going to be living in Springville, Ut for the next two months and then we will be going to Nevada for two months. We are excited for changes and yet sad to say goodbye to Boise. It has been so fun living here with Mom and Dad and the girls. I am not sure what Brielle and Macy are going to do without each other. They have been stuck like glue for the past 4 months.

Love,
Chelsea Charlie and Macy

Most of you probably already know, but Uncle Arlin passes away today. His funeral services will be scheduled for next Thursday or Friday. He was my fathers last living sibling. He has been like another father to me.

It is kind of scary as I am now the second oldest Mecham 0f my Grandparents family.

I love you all!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAYDEN

We just wanted to wish you a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I still remember you mom writing and telling me she was pregnant with you while on my mission. She wrote and told me she was having a boy and wanted to use the name Kay in it some how. I wrote her back with the name Kayden and the day she got the letter the night before she dreamnt about the name Kayden. I know that was suppose to be your name. We are very glad to have you as a part of our family. We love you very much.

We are looking forward to seeing all of you this week. Please travel safely!

Fun times ahead

We are so excited for the upcoming activities. We love this time of the season to be able to visit with family and share our blessings with others. We are looking forward to Thanksgiving and are so appreciative to Mom and Dad for putting this on. We will bring our swimsuits and fun table games. Do they have racquetball?

I was on the Eagle Board of Review for one of my former scouts tonight. Another one is going to do his Eagle project next week and should be done just under the wire. This will leave only about 2 priests to get their Eagles. There is one priest that will not get his Eagle as he procrastinated too long. I have 5 life scouts in my teacher's quorum that are working on their eagles and we will have 100% Eagles in the teacher's quorum. I will be receiving 4 life scouts this year from the Deacon's quorum and the last of my scouts will come to me as an Eagle scout. When all this is accomplished, I will have seen 26 of my 50 scouts I had as a scoutmster earn the rank of Eagle. Most of the ones who didn't get Eagle were non members who quit, or less active families that moved away before they finished with me or came in too late to get started. That would be a great accomplishment to see these boys do this. I have some work to do to keep them focused.

I can't wait to see everyone for Thanksgiving. It should be a lot of fun.

Love Always, Bryan
