Hello from the Colorado Thompson Bentleys

Hey Everyone! This may be a little tricky for Rick, so you will have to settle for me until he figures it out. Cora made it into the Young Author's Tea at her school. She was one of two kids from her class nominated to attend a special tea and listen to a local author talk about writing. She felt really honored and is published now. Linc is talking a lot as some of you heard first hand while we were in Utah. He is really into cutting things with scissors too like our cell phone power cords and blinds. And, he is loving turning the hot water heater off - showers have been a little cold around here. Brig has been sickly this year and just got over another cold this week. And Lydia is talking a lot and had the same cold as Brig. Lincoln clearly is looking smarter on this diet!
Life is quiet and uneventful. Rick will be working a lot of moonlighting jobs within the next two months. I keep telling him I don't care about the money - I just want to keep all the stuff. (Name that movie!) Steve and Rachel and family spent the day with us today watching conference. We love having them around ... we wouldn't mind a few more people moving out here.
It was great to see you all and can't wait to reconnect in July.
Lots of love! Rick, Marisa, Cora, Linc, Brig, Lyds and Clyde
