Tena
Nathan and Linda
We hope everyone is doing
well. We had a great time seeing
everyone at the reunion. It was so much
fun. Thanks to the Ken Humpherys Family
for the time and effort put into it. I
feel like I write the same things every year, but here we go again.
Nathan
is still working for Union Pacific. He
gets to travel all over. I was able to
go with him last August to California for a week. It was a lot of fun. We got to see Newell, Sally, Damien, Kenny
and Myrna. It was a week of doing
nothing but relaxation. I plan on doing
it again this coming summer.
Nathan
and I went to the first round of the NCAA basketball tournament in Salt Lake City. I love it!
I look forward to it every spring.
I am teaching 4th
grade. I have started my Masters in
Educational Leadership program. I am
hoping to graduate next June.
Trae
and I got to go on a fun horse ride with Shawn, Shane, all of their kids and my
dad. We rode to Union Falls. It was about a 7mile each way ride. I made it all the way. Shawn and Shane had bets how long I would
last. It was so much fun. I hope they include me again.
Nathan
and I attended many concerts, Def Leppard being my favorite. I go every year. Maddy and I went to Tim and Faith Hill. It wasn’t as good as when Tim is by himself.
Nathan
bought me a kayak for Mother’s Day. He
talked my dad into getting my mom one.
We only got to go twice, but plan on going a lot more this coming
summer.
Carter
got married in December. They are doing
great and plan to write their own newsletter, so I will let them tell you all
about it. They are living in Rexburg and
are attending BYU-I.
Trae
and Marley will be writing one as well. They live in Pocatello and Trae will be
graduating this spring. Marley was
accepted to the dental hygiene program.
She will finish her first year in May.
Maddy
graduated last May. She is living at
home and is working in Idaho Falls. She
is engaged, and will be getting married to Eric Roisum in July. He is a super nice guy, and we are excited to
have him in the family.
Nathan
and I are excited to be empty nesters. We are officially done with sports. All of our kids will be married this
summer. Our lives have been
transitioning quickly, and we are enjoying all of our new adventures.
Love You All!
Shawn & Hilary
Shawn has been a deputy at the Sheriff’s office for 13
years now. He continues to work patrol
and has worked a lot of night shifts this year in order to accommodate his
other activities. He continues to work
both road patrol and marine patrol. He
has a lot of fun stories to share of his different experiences. He has a real talent to diffuse situations
and is a great officer. He was able to
go on a few pack trips with his mules this year and loves to spend his time in
the saddle with his friends and family.
He also was able to get a motorcycle this year and went on a couple of
fun rides. Shawn has been able to coach
the kids in their basketball endeavors. He coached Hayden in a few tournaments
over the summer, helped coach Hadley’s traveling team, was the assistant girls
coach for Hadley’s team at the middle school again and takes all of the kids to
his various practices to help them grow their talents. Our kids are so lucky to have such an
involved father who spends time and effort on them.
Hilary is just trying to keep up with her kids and all of
their activities. She continues to work
full time. She is still an RN and
working at Health West in the Quality department. Her job lets her attend almost all of her
kids activities and she is so thankful for that. Shawn, Hilary and Tena will be going to Europe
in March to visit Hilary’s father who is currently on a mission in Belgium. She was released from her calling in Young
Women this year. She and Shawn were
called to be Sunday School teachers for the 14-15-year old kids- this is
Hayden’s class. She was also recently
called to be the ward girls camp director so will be busy with that this
summer.
Hayden turned 16 this year.
He is a sophomore in high school and started driving. He played on the JV basketball team and had a
successful year. His team struggled at
times during the regular season but went out on a high winning the JV High
Country Conference Championship. He had
some medical problems during the year that affected his season but it doing
well now. Hayden went to his first
concert this year with his mom. They saw
Hollywood Undead, which is his favorite band.
Don’t look it up if you haven’t heard them because you probably won’t
like it and they swear a lot! He loved
it and Hilary learned not to hate their songs.
He enjoyed pack trips with his dad and just being a kid this year. Hayden loves to tease and fight with his
siblings. He is a good brother and a
good kid.
Hadley will be 14 this year and is in the 8th
grade. She played volleyball, a lot of
basketball, and ran track. She is the
student body president at her school this year and is doing an amazing job at
keeping her grades up. Hadley’s
traveling b-ball team went all over again this year. We found ourselves in Utah several times,
Reno, and Las Vegas. Hadley loves
basketball and has been a successful player.
Her school team had an undefeated year and Hadley was a big part of
that. Hadley is so much help at
home. She helps get her little siblings
ready when mom has early morning meetings and has helped cook many meals this
year.
Hallie will be 11 this year and is in the 5th
grade. She plays volleyball and
basketball as well. Hallie is our little
social bug and loves to be with her friends.
She has been able to be the water girl for Shawn & Hadley’s school
team and gets to attend and participate in their practices and she loves
it! Hallie is the shortest person in her
class and on her teams but she does not let that stop her from being super
successful. Hallie is also a baby
charmer. At all of the many games we go
to, she is almost always seen walking around with a baby on her hip. Many of the mothers have told me how much
they appreciate Hallie because with her help, they get to watch the game.
Hallie does really well in school and takes pride in getting good grades. She is also very helpful at home and keeps
her little brother on track in the mornings.
Hunter turned 8 this year and is in the 2nd
grade. He will be baptized in April, he
decided to wait for Hayden to turn 16 so that Hayden can baptize him. He spends a lot of time in the gyms right now
watching his brother and sisters play their various sports. He also played Jazz basketball this year and
loved it. Hunter is a comedian and loves
to make us all smile. He does really
well in school. He loves basketball,
Star Wars and Godzilla. We are so
blessed to have him and love him so much.
Shane & Nicole
2017 was good to us! Shane
started coaching the high school jv basketball team! Him and our boys had a
blast! They had a great season finishing at 18-4
He has also stayed busy still
running the massage school and serving in young men's.
Nash just turned 11 and is in
5th grade. He played tackle football again this year and had an undefeated
season!! He has also been playing basketball and I have to say he reminds me
more and more of Shane all the time. He has been so much fun to watch!!!
Sloane is 9 and in the 3rd
grade. She played her first season of basketball this year and she did so good
and had so much fun. She is also dancing!
Hayes is 5 and is in
kindergarten this year. He played flag football this year and got a strip 6 he
is pretty proud of. He is still making us laugh everyday!!
Jayde just turned 4. She got
to be a part of a neighborhood joy school. We both had so much fun with that.
She is so excited to go to school with the big kids. I'm glad we have one more
year before she's too grown up!! Hope everyone doing good!!!

We didn’t have much going on in the year 2017. It was our

Hall of Fame, and of course eating some delicious southern food. Marley has
some family in Knoxville and went and spent some time with them. Marley loves
Tennessee and wants us to live there someday. Trae has applied to a PA school
in Knoxville Tennessee, Methodist University in North Carolina and Mercer in
Georgia.
Marley got into Dental Hygiene school at Idaho state university
and started this last August. The Dental Hygiene program is a 2 year program so
she will be graduating May of 2019. Trae will be graduating this Spring in May
of 2018 with his Bachelors degree in Exercise Science. After that we will just
