Hmmm....what has been going on in the Poulson home?

SO MUCH!
I may miss quite a bit, but I will do my best.

First I have to mention Spencer's new car. We got it in April, but it is his baby and he loves it so I thought I better post about it since it is part of the family.
Ashlee had her dance concert in May and did a great job. She is getting very good and we are very proud. Thanks Grandad and Grammy and Grandpapa and Grandmama for coming out to see her dance.


Ashlee got to be in the Pony Express days Parade again for Dance and got to dance in the showcase as well.

We had a great time at the carnival, even though Spencer got very sick on one of the not so mellow rides.
We were lucky enough to have my second family, Hannah and Lia come stay with us for a week. We love these girls so much and were grateful to be able to adopt them for a week.

Our Ward finally split. With that came a lot of heart ache but a lot of exciting new opportunities to serve and new friendships to form. Part of our Ward and another Ward combined to make the 12th Ward. We are much smaller then what we are used to and it is quite nice. This is our 5th Ward in 4 years, same house and we love it. I was released as RS Pres and Spencer was released as Membership clerk/building scheduler/Ward Website administrator as we are now in the new Ward. Spencer was called as 1st Councilor in the Bishopric and is loving serving the Ward and trying to unite all the great members. I was called as 1st councilor in the YW's. After the initial shock I am very excited and have a great group of girls to work with.
Ashlee got another haircut that is super cute. Laurie Ercanbrack is a haircut queen and we love her!

Mostly, through all this business and trials of life we have learned to really rely on Friends and each other. The last picture is of Spencer showing up at Ashlee's showcase and surprising us both. Spencer works so hard and it is moments like this that we are so grateful that we are together and doing so well. We want to express our love to all of our friends and family. We have been so blessed these last few months and hope and pray that you all can feel our Savior's hand in your own lives.

Good thing you're staying so busy, so you can deal with your loss of me. Ha Ha :-) Ashlee's haircut is super cute!
