Adoption Finalization!



Hello everyone! We just wanted to thank all of you for the prayers, love & support you have given us through this whole process. We have been so blessed by each of you. You are all invited to Brooklyn's sealing which is June 10th at 12:30 in the Idaho Falls Temple. There will be a little lunch afterwards at the Robert Bodily's. You are all welcome, but no pressure since I know many of you may be travelling to Angie's wedding the following week. We just wanted you to know you were invited. We love you all. Zach, Holly & Brooklyn

Happy Birthday MOM and GRANDMA!






Happy Birthday Mom and Grandma!
Randy had business in IFall on Wednesday, so I rode with him and joined in Mom's birthday celebrations.
Some of the activities were lunch at Smitty's, dinner with Mike and Bernie, stop at Rob and Renee, visit the cemetery. It was fast but so fun to spend some time with the best mom!!
(Randy had to try the "Randy Burger" from the menu, as did Eric-reports are it was good)

A splurge from the Florida Bodilys













Well, we're not sure who is holding who in this picture, but we do know that Marissa is a big helper, and we think she's cute even when she's mad.
We had a fun Easter this year--Marissa and mommy love making things together. Marissa can be a daddy's girl too, though, always looking for an excuse to snuggle. She's quite the little photographer-she took this picture of me all by herself--"Mommy, I want to take your picture, JUMP!!!" and this is what we got! We started working on the articles of Faith and she has the first 2 memorized already. She is such an awesome, protective, helpful big sister to Chandler. We adore both of our kids! It's been so long since we've posted anything and most of you have never met Chandler, so I'm gonna splurge!!!Chandler is one today-- on Mother's Day--he is such a JOY. He is climber, and daredevil, but very sweet and mellow and smiley. He can walk now and just got his first big boy shoes! He loves to eat, and weighs nearly 25 pounds (no wonder I have tendonitis in my wrist and popped a rib out of place picking him up!) He can say da-da and ma-ma, and he adores his sissy. He has 7 teeth that get inspected a lot by his dentist-to-be-daddy. Ty hopes he's a football player for BYU. Love you all and please forgive me for bragging...Kyla
Love, Kyla and fam

Happy Mother's Day - Barb


Hey Mom, I knew you would be checking this first thing this morning and so I wanted to be the first kid to tell you Happy Mother's Day and to make sure everyone knows how much I love the moms (Grandma Alice, Barb, and Cyndee) in our family.
I think one of the things all of us kids love about you, Mom, is your ability to lift us up and help us feel like we can conquer the world. All we have to do is hang out with Mom and Dad one Sunday afternoon and listen to them talk to each of us kids (over the phone) ... "you can do it" "we support you 100%" "we are right with you" etc...
For me, I always appreciate being able to call Mom while I am on the road. Sometimes I blame it on the fact that I am sleepy and need someone to talk too but I really enjoy the uplift you give, Mom. When Cyndee and I lived in Rupert, when someone in the ward was sick in the hospital, I can't remember who, I remember you going in there on a regular basis and showing your love and support to them. Someone in the ward asked me why my mom always seems to be helping people in need, and I told them that she does that for everyone she loves including me. Many people tell me of the many nice things that my mom has done for them. I hope I can be that way when I grow up. Mom I love you. Thanks for being such a great example and influence in my life. Happy Mothers Day!
Love,
Redge

Angie & Neal's sealing is in the Idaho Falls Temple, Friday, June 16th at 9:30am. (Reception that night 5:00 or 6:00.)

We are still planning on going to the Smith reunion on Saturday, June 17.

We hope anyone who wants will still be able to attend both the sealing and the Smith reunion. Just stay the night here and head out in the morning to Utah. If you can't do the sealing/reception don't worry, we know you can't do it all.

Love ya all

Angie Is Engaged!!! (Here is the Scoop)






It is official!

Last Night 10th of May Neal asked Angie to Marry Him and Gave her a ring.

(This is all the guys need to know)

Now for the Girly details

Neal & Angie went to the green belt to do their scripture study.
He gave her a Book of Mormon for Latter Day Saint Families, engraved "Neal & Angie Guymon" and said he was sorry it is taking so long to get the ring and hoped this would make up for it and buy him a little time.

Then they walked down to the river and Neal had carved their names in a stump. He said I was going to carve the word Forever under our names but thought he should make it official first. He knelt down on one knee pulled out the ring and asked the big M question & she gave the big Y answer.

They are going to go this weekend and carve "Forever" in the stump.

They have set the date for Friday June 16th (YES this year) with the reception maybe in our yard? So we will be busy but look forward to seeing everyone that can come.

We couldn't be happier! Neal is a Super Guy as you will find out as he becomes part of our family.

We Love you all.

Photos from Alice's Sister's Funeral




Here are two or three pictures taken from my stereo camera. If you have the right kind of glasses you can see them in 3d. If you can't it's ok. One is Alice, one is Paul and Deena and the other is a closeup of Paul taking a picture with Karen in the background.
RO
GreaT NEWS (Eric Bodily's)

Kathy asked "How does the Lord want individuals to be organized?"
Randy asked Why do we all have to apprar before the Judgment seat of Christ?"
Barb asked "What did 3 of the Nephites (apostles) request of the Lord?"

Busy Busy Busy

Since the last time we have written, we have had at least seven baseball games each week. Jessica had another dance competition, this one was in Twin Falls, she and her team did very well.

We have had three birthdays in two weeks, Karina, Andrew and Jessica. Jessica applied for and got a job working at Options, it is an agency that works with special needs teens and adults. Some days are harder than others, but she really likes working there, she will have full days once school is out and will get off at 3 so she will still have time to play or whatever.

Jessica and several members from her dance team went down to Pocatello and tried out for "Footloose" at the Mystic dinner theatre, and we got unofficial word (from the sister, who is my friend) that four of the six that tried out made it and Jessica was one of them, they will have their practices in the evenings, which will work well with her schedule as well.

Andrew has been working part time for the school district that Eric and I work for. He works in the warehouse as a sub, and he also works some for Idaho Traffic Safety, flagging. He has also been hired to be a commissioner up at Treasure Mountain Scout camp, and he and a friend have been working non stop to get the program up and running for this year. He is also anxious to get started on his mission papers which should be sometime this month.

We have been getting busy with videography, we are booked for the month with dance recitals, and dance competitions.

So that is the Ammon Bodilys in a nut shell.
