Son #1

Today Preston is starting his first day at the University of Utah.  He is excited but nervous.  I am excited for him.  The 'U' is a great school and I know he will do well.

Part of getting a college education is figuring out how to get it done.  Preston started at SUU in 2006 - went a Semester - was a member of the Football team and was named to the Dean's list.

After his mission he looked at going back to SUU - or to Dixee - or to the U - to go to school and play football.  Instead he enrolled in SLCC, got married, worked at Westlake Jr. High and Hunter High, and coached football. This past spring he earned is Associate Degree from SLCC.

I've always told my kids "If it was easy, everyone would do it!".  Going to school, working, coaching, being married is not easy - but he will get through it.

So good luck today Preston - the end of the road is near - and then you can move to the next "hard" thing in your life whatever it may be!!!!!
