Referendum 1 and Vouchers

But first the fun "non-political" stuff!


Last Sunday was the kid's primary program! They did a wonderful job! The boys had their parts memorized perfectly and Missy was asked to give a short talk and she did a super job! They also sang and sang and sang and Dad said he could hear them above the rest!


We are so proud of our sweet kids! And yep that is snow you see on the ground. We had our first snow but don't worry it melted fast and the days have been gorgeous this week!


Gramps and Granny Olive were able to make it up and come to the program too! It was so fun to see them, thanks so much for coming!! And yep I crocheted Charly's dress! (Just in case you were wondering;)

OK now for the boring but kind of important stuff! As most of you know we homeschool so the whole voucher thing doesn't really even affect us! So if you want unbiased information this should be a good source;) Ry and I have looked into the whole thing and looked at both opinions. As we have looked and weighed the pros and cons we have come to the conclusion that although it's not the final answer; Referendum 1 seems to be a step in the right direction. We think that it should help all around and especially help the children which are of course our future!!! So Ry and I are thinking voting for Referendum 1 would be the best direction to go and hope it's the beginning of even more good things and not the end all!
Here are some links about Referendum 1 just in case you were interested in learning more yourself! (sorry for those of you who don't live in Utah;) also do some of your own research and let us know what YOU think we highly value all of your opinions!!!
