I am sorry it has been so long
So life has been a bit insane for us right now, Ben has been incredibly busy at work and it seems like life is never slow or dull with Jared.
Ben has been embracing work, he loves his job and the people he works with and for, they are a great company, small but have made a name for them selves in the internet securities world. Ben is excited about the work he does, he knows that he is good, and has been told so by his bosses. This gets him even more confident in his abilities and boosts his production. There is a big securities expo in Las Vegas in a couple weeks and the company will be making a huge presentation there. He is realy looking forward to there showing.
Jared is a fun and amazing kid, of course I am not biased or anything. Jared, who was born 2 m early, misses the kindergarden cut off date by 4 days, which is ok with me, most boys need the extra preschool time to mature. Jared turned 4 1/2 last m0nth and is constantly busy, even sick he is just go go go. He is in summerschool for preschool, which i think that they timed perfectly, the monday after they let out we are begining our travels, We will be camping up by Yosimite Park, well ok, we rented a cabin. Its for the ()gden family reunion and we are excited, about the prospect of being there, and seeing so much of Bens family that we dont know as well as the Farnsworth side. Jared and I will be riding alot of trains this summer, going for quick jaunts into the city, using Light Rail, Cal trans and BART. Beleive me, Jared with love this summer.
I have been keeping very busy this whole time. At the begining of the year I developed pnuemonia, and then about 3 weeks later my maternal grandmother, who I helped care for with my mother, passed away rather suddenly, her heart just kind of gave out. She was able to be surrounded by her family, which was very important to her and us. It was a very spiritual experiance for me. When she was settled in a room in the hospital, she was sort of in and out of a catonic state, wile she was "sleeping" My mom and I new that she was being prepaired to go to the other side of the veil to be with her family. She would sing "Come come ye saints" under her breath. She also was greeting people, some of the names she was saying were names of her siblings, she called out to her parents and also to my aunt, her daughter, who had passed the year before. At that point my mother and I prayed and felt that it was time to gather the family and fly the other family that didnt live closely out. About 30 hours later, at 4 in the morning, My Mother, cousin, aunt and I watched her breath her last, and felt her spirit go home. I know that my grandmother is sitting in heaven right now watching over my family, I know that she wants me and Ben to be sealed in the temple, and right now we are finaly able to work twards that goal, and we are.
I am keeping busy with Jared, taking him to school and back, taking him to parks, and showing him the world, and keeping him entertained, introducing him to new places, having him help me and my mother in the garden. I have started to get back into scrap booking, I finaly dug up all my scrap booking stuff, and am realy getting into it, Jared likes to help me place items on the page and adhere them to the page.
Over all life has been good for us, I know that times are rough right now. Its getting tight for every one. The lord has blessed us, and we are well aware of it. I love you all and cant wait to see you all again,
Love
Bethany, Ben and Jared

Starting off
Well. I guess I should start this off. I have a blog somewere else but its more of a private online journal. This is a great way to connect with family, friends and others. Alittle about Ben and
I.
Ben and I were married in December of 2004, in Ca, things were a bit hectic. We have a son, Jared, 4, who was born 2 months premature, and is autistic. We live near San Jose, Ca, have 3 cats, Chippunk, Lucy Fur, and Shadow. We also own a dog named Avery, who can only see shadows, and is half Jack russle terrier and half Chiuaua, when we call him or hes in the car he perks his huge bat wing ears up.
Ben works as a soft wear engineer for a start up company, which is doing well. Bens one of the lucky few that are acctually doing what he loves for a living and comes home witha smile on his face. He loves to play World of warcraft, write stories, and play with his son in his spare time.
Bethany is one of the lucky moms out there, she gets to stay at home and raise her son, rather than let some one else raise Jared. She loves to cook, dance, crochet, read, occationaly play
WoW, go to the gym, and play with her son and all his trains, as much as she would like to have another child, was told that she would never have children, and suffers from unexplained miscaraiges, she has had 4.
Jared, the apple of both Ben and Beth's is totally spoiled. Being the only grandchild on Bethany's side of the family he is doted on by his Oma and Baba, not to mention his 2 uncles, Kimball, and Loren and aunt Breeanne. Jared was diagnosed with Autism in the winter of 2006. He goes to SEDC and has speach therapy and play therapy every day. He absolutly is nuts about trains, day in day out, plays with his trains and watches his train videos.
