Mike is going to the Philippines, Loaog (La wag) Mission.
It is a newer mission and is on the north western
part of the island of Luzon. He leaves July 14.

Easter 2010

This week as the family celebrated Easter, we

had a family picture taken. Annie is new to our family, so

before Mike goes away for two years, we wanted a picture together.

Wednesday we will see where Mike is going and when

he will leave on his mission. We will keep you posted.

Mike Graduated (phew, he had us worried)

Well, of course Mike graduated from High School. He was an excellent student and even receieved a scholorship to Utah State. We are so proud of him and excited for his future!!

We had Mike's senior pictures taken professionally last month and they are on this website:

There are some fun shots of him dunking the basketball too. Check them out.

Dad's Plane

This is a cargo plane in the Hill Air Force Museum in Roy, Utah. It is a actual plane flown in the Pacific during World War II. There were two different versions of the same plane; this is the smaller one. On June 6th and 7th this year the Thunderbirds are coming for the air show and the larger plane should be at the museum.
During the war Dad was in one or the other of these planes to perform an assignment. They needed to rebuild some bridges. He was a supply sergeant and went around in Australia wherever he was stationed and found the supplies to build those bridges. He then held the supplies in the cargo hold while his commanding officer flew to where they were to perform this task. He was going to Guam, I think. If anyone has more details let me know.

The Nativity Story

Ryan and Jake helped make Christmas costumes for our nativity story. Connor was the perfect size this year for his part. Hailey kept her costume on and Andrew sometimes had his lamb (his costume). We were surprised at how well they made it through the whole thing. We hope to make this a Christmas tradition. I think they enjoy it. We did.

MAUGHAN FAMILY PICTURE 2008

When the family gets together, we have a great time. Connor is our new addition and we love him. Our picture turned out great don't you think?
This was our backyard shot during Brent's birthday celebration.

Tiger Woods' got nothin on Brent Maughan!

Eric and Mike thought they were so funny when their dad saw his profile on this new XBox game. This was their gift to him for his 58th birthday.
