Did you know? Rupert boy makes good.

Did you know that a childhood Rupert friend has been the director of the Bible church videos made for the LDS church?  Yes, it's true!  Former Rupert 5th ward member and Minico class of '73 graduate Bruce Neibaur has been the director of the series of films made in Goshen, Utah to replicate the Bible lands of the New Testament.  How great is that?

The three year project is wrapping up and the elaborate sets that were build for the filming are being put on hold for future projects.  Check out this article here.

Check out the inspirational videos that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has made to bring the stories of Jesus to life at lds.org HERE.  Here is a little preview of the work that Bruce and many others have been involved in producing over the last three years. I'm so impressed with the quality and authenticity of the films and for how they made me feel when I watch them.  I can imagine my Savior more clearly and the stories bring the scriptures to life.  I'm so proud of Bruce and the work he has done!

Showered with bridal happiness

We had such a fun time at Chelsea's garden bridal shower a couple of weeks ago.  Thanks to all who helped and who attended.  Rick and Andy helped out a lot and I couldn't have done it without Sydney Jan.  She made the darling banners shown above and she helped me with the food, the flowers and the set up and serving.  Chelsea got some wonderful gifts and she is well on her way to having what she needs to set up a new home.  Her mom and sister can from Las Vegas for the weekend and we had a very good time enjoying Mother's day with them as well as the shower.  Chelsea is a wonderful addition to our family and we love her a lot.  The wedding is coming up on June 14!
