Noble News #61 - Marvelle Reporter

I used to type fast. My highest was 125 wph when I went to Calgary Business College they clocked me then. I had an electric typewriter and I thouht I was really good.

love Marvelle

PS we are fine. We are missing Gayle and Lester Ann coming down though. I guess we have to be satisfied with Lauren and Nickee coming down on the 7th, 8th and 9th for Lauren playing soccer. Oh well, that is life. We are still on our diet and exercise program. We are staying about the same and I am happy about that. Well will scoot.

Love Marvelle

Taylor's Snowboarding

We also went to the local Ski Hill in Sparwood
to watch Taylor snowboard. She makes it look
so easy but she is swooshing down that hill very
fast. My camera was on a very fast setting.
















Jordan is the Champion

The Tai Kwon Do tournament was really something.
There were kids there from All over BC, Alberta and
Saskatchewan. I have never seen so many kids
dressed in white in their bare feet, full of energy and
anticipation and ready to preform. They are all very
well behaved as that is part of their training. Jordan
won his age division and we were so proud of him.
Her he is with his trophy. He has been sleeping with
it ever since they put it in his hand.















And the winner is Jordan Nelson!!



Here he is during his fight. He is wearing the red
helmet.
Jordan with his teacher. He is quite an amazing man.
He is an 8th degree Black Belt. He is also a very accomplished
golfer. He he has been teaching kids for a very long time.
He was also Jordan's Uncle Troy's teacher.

The promised Snow Pictures.


Elder Scott came to our Stake Conference last fall and during the last session there had been someone asked to give the benediction. Before he got to the podium Elder Scott stood up and said he would like to act on an impression and he gave the closing prayer. During a very long and eloquent prayer he prayed for moisture for this area. We got moisture very quickly as there were few dry eyes in the building. Everyone joked about that but seriously this area has been suffering for want of moisture for about three years. But with all the snow we are getting over the past two months and the probably ten times more they are getting in the mountains, we know his prayer has been answered. We will have plenty of moisture and loads of irrigation water from the mountains for this summer.
