Jason


Life continues to be full of cheese and whine for this family. As in, mom and dad are in love and the kids behave like typical children!

Major life events from the recent past:

Jason is settling into his new job at Ryan LLC. We are thankful he was able to find a good job after graduation. Nothing more to report there.

Katherine was baptized at the beginning of May. It is amazing to see how much she has grown and what an intelligent, creative, funny girl she is and to see her beginning to choose her own path in life.

Our baby, Benjamin turned one at the end of June, entering into the next stage of life: new teeth, cruising along the furniture, getting into things we didn't think he could reach, climbing up the stairs and basically keeping mom and dad on their toes!

Six months was a little longer than we had hoped for, but we finally sold our house in Hyde Park, closing on June 29th after some minor headaches. So we are now happy to be homeless, still living in Becky's parent's basement. The kids love being close to family and her parents are still tolerating our loud and crazy brood. Katherine and David feel especially lucky since living in West Jordan means they can take piano lessons from Grandma Tomlinson!

Our next amazing feat will be to answer these life-changing questions: WHO unrolled all the toilet paper again? WHAT did the baby put in his mouth? WHERE should we buy a new house? WHEN should we start looking for said house? WHY would we want to move when we've got it so good, with live-in babysitters? HOW many Lindgrens does it take to screw in a light bulb?

Tune in next time for a continuation of our adventures and to (hopefully) discover the answers to these perplexing questions! 

Lots of love and may you have more cheese than whine!

Jason and Becky Tomlinson
