jeff update

I thought I would go through each person and give an update. Jeff just got home from a boy's weekend with his childhood friend Jon. They went dirt biking. Jeff got a new dirt bike/motorcycle in January. He took a class to learn how to ride a motorcycle with his boss from Pfizer. After he did go on a day trip with his boss and a guy who taught this motorcycle class. Anyway he's enjoyed having a motorcycle and hopes to do more dirt trails. Back to this trip, Jon and Jeff then flew to Catalina. They rented a 2 person plane and Jon flew them over. They camped, looked at the sunset and sunrise. Jon lost his phone the next morning and due to that the day in Catalina got cut short. Jeff then visited family and drove home the next day. Speaking of family, Katherine had a baby boy in March, Sterling Knox. He was in NICU at CHOC hospital for about a month. They discovered he has cystic fibrosis. Now they are home and Jeff went to visit them and meet Sterling.
Jeff got a new calling the beginning of the year. He is the Gospel Doctrine teacher and he's teaching from the New Testament. Although very intimidated at first, he's doing great. He a great balance of being engaging, informative, enthusiastic and many people have been complimentary about his teaching style. Best thing, is that he's learning a lot about the New Testament.
In February we flew to Lubbock for the annual Bahama Buck's meeting. Jeff was part of a panel. We also won highest inline sales and we got the platinum award. Sales above 750K in a calendar year (and we opened in March so that says a lot).
The end of February Jeff competed in his 3 marathon. It was his first one in Phoenix. He shaved off 11 minutes and got a PR 3 hours 14 minutes. He did so well! He trained consistently and gave it his all with each workout. This time he had a coach.
In February and March he did our annually hiring, interviewing, and training of new employees at Bahama Bucks. So Jeff works hard everyday, 7 days a week. Being a great dad, dedicated and involved boss with Bahama Bucks, working with Pfizer, his time with his calling, and taking care of his health staying in shape, I was happy to give him a long weekend to do something fun and take off from his typical duties.
