*Oprah Show*

This is just a reminder that Travis will be on the Oprah show tomorrow, Thursday! There is already an adorable commercial with sweet Maddy on there! It should be a very good show, all about Walter Reed and its soldiers. I must say though, I don't know if politics will be put into the show, and hopefully, the show will just be about the inspiring stories of soldiers and their families!

I'm moving back to Cedar City!!!!!

Just a little note to say.....FINALLY!!!!!!!! Over Thanksgiving break I decided that it was time to move back to Cedar. I really want to be closer to family and friends and being in Idaho I feel so out of the loop!! So...This weekend I'm packing up and moving back to Cedar. WOOHOO!!!!!!

Homes for Our Troops!!

There was a really nice banquet in Travis and Stephanie's honor in Cedar City on the 17th of Feb. This was an information dinner and groundbreaking ceramony to let the community know about their plans. An organization called 'Homes for our Troops' (www.homesforourtroops.org) builds specially adapted houses for severely wounded soldiers and their families and Trav and Steph were picked! The plan is to get the community envolved as much as possible to build this house with friends, family and volunteers. They are going to have a big volunteer day where they get all the walls up in one day! They have chosen to have their house built in Cedar City!! I'm so excited about this!! The dinner was very nice and Travis gave a really nice speech. They really deserve this!! The Canyon View Choir was there to sing! The girls had fun running around and being with each other and they looked so stinkin cute!!

Travis got his new leg today!!

Hey everyone! Travis got his computerized leg today! It is called a C-Leg! It is so cool! They program his leg to walk the way he needs to walk! The computer part is the knee, and it is programmed to bend at certain resistances which help him walk and sit. He can even ride a bike! He's using his crutches while he walks on it. He's not supposed to walk on it all the time, because his nub (which he likes to call Nubby) still has scabs from the incision! But he is healing so quickly and walking so well! He's a miracle! See for yourself in the picture!!

***My Baptism!***

I was baptised Ladder Day Saints on Feb. 7, 2009. My baptism was the most amazing and wonderful thing! I asked Justin to baptize me and decided that Cedar City would be the right place to do it since most of my friends and family are there. Justin did sooo much to make the day so special!! It will surely be a day that I will never forget. I am so blessed to be surrounded by such amazing people. I asked my friends Tony and Jaryd to talk on baptism and the Holy Ghost since they have always been so influential and positive in my entire families life. They gave wonderful talks. Poor Jaryd got so nervous that he accidently called me 'Jessica' which is Tony's girlfriends name! Justin and some people from his ward did a really nice medely with primary songs. It was so perfect. Justin's wonderful parents were kind enough to drive down from Wyoming to share the day. They are such great people! Here are a few pictures...
