Mom & Keith










It is hard to believe we have been home from our mission for three months. 
 We are appreciating our home and it's conveniences.  My recovery from 
rotator cuff surgery is going slow but as expected.  In 2 1/2 weeks I 
can start using my right arm.  I certainly was not born to be a lefty!!  
I have physical therapy twice a week...then another month of retrenched
 upper arm. The one upside to this is that I have watched a lot of HGTV
 and I am making lots of plans for much needed updating on the old 
homestead starting with the kitchen.  We had three trees taken down in 
our oak grove.  They were the smaller ones and having them gone has 
opened things up in the backyard quite a bit but without sacrificing 
shade where it is wanted.  In the spring we will make more improvements.
  Keith's balance problems seem to be improving with the physical therapy
 he had and exercised he is doing. For those who may be in the neighborhood
 at Christmas, the local family will be sharing Christmas dinner with us 
and you are invited to join us if it is convenient.  If you need your gift
 exchange list, let me know.  Start thinking now about that.  Let your 
family know when to expect those gifts.  Let them know if finances could
 be a problem.  Home made is great. We love you all so much.  Please take
 care of yourselves.  Love Mom and Dad Walburger

Bryce & Laura

Hey family.... just wanted to let you know that Jordan is officially an eagle scout
now.  He passed his board of review with flying colors.  He earned a total of 33 merit
badges over his scouting career.  We are so proud of him and all his hard work and 
 sacrifice.  We all went to Ice cream to celebrate.  Also last month Spencer 
totalled his car right near our house.  Some lady was flying  by on the right shoulder
 and slammed in to his side.  Spencer got hit by the airbag and  some glass but he is 
just fine.  We just got him a little  mazda protege'.  He really  likes it a lot too.
  We just thank the Lord that he was ok.  Every one else is doing  great.  We are 
starting to get cold and had to turn on the heater this week but we know  that it
 is all a part of living in the mountains. We love and miss you and we'll talk to  
ya later.  Love the SLC Westover's
