The Hunter Herald
This is the first edition of the Hunter Herald. I hope this will be a fun way to let everyone know what is going on in our everyday lives. This will also be the start of our Hunter Family History. Send news, photos, whatever! Enjoy!
NEIL & MIKE-Congratulations Kalli. She’s teaching a class like sunshine generation and we hear she’s doing GREAT!
Trevor and Charmayne-We love it here in Gridley. We've made lots of friends. The boys are doing great in school.
Kinny loves school and was counting down the days till he became a first grader. He is so excited to be going a full day with his brothers. He has picked up reading very well. He does a great job with the little Dick and Jane books.
Nick will be in GATE next year for the 3rd grade. He has read Harry Potter 4, and is almost done with #5. I promised him if he read all the books at home I would take him to the library. He's doing a great job so far.
Race was promoted half way through this school year. He will be in 6th grade and taking freshman algebra this next year. He finished in 2nd place of his GATE group this year. (Missed 1st by one point and third place was 75points behind the two of them.) He was on the basketball team this year and seems to really like it.
All three boys were in track. Although it rained most of track season they seemed to have fun anyway.
Trev and I are looking into going back to school. Maybe, maybe not! We'll see what happens. Business is picking up and we have the county fair coming up in August. I just finished repainting the kitchen. Now it's just curtains and getting everything back in there. I'm looking forward to getting back to normal. We've been eating in the family room for 3 months.
Well that's probably good for now.
Charmayne
LAMONT & EVY- We are glad to hear Justin’s baby is doing better.
LAYNE & FRANKIE-Hi, Layne and I just got home from stake girl's camp. Jarom Hunter (Brandon's) was just baptized.
Layne has had several successful fishing trips and plans to do more fishing this summer. He is now remodeling a bathroom for someone in our ward, will paint a dental office, and make repairs & re-roof our tax man's office.
We still plan to check out the camp that our stake (& 4 other stakes) just purchased. The camp is one of his responsibilities as a high councilor. I am still Stake YW President so I have an interest in the camp also. Layne also leads religious services once a month at Avenal state prison.
Rayanna, Ashley, and grandkids are here visiting. Kara & Mike are planning to move to Twin Falls area soon. Wesley (Seth's) will be ordained a deacon next month.

CALVIN & DONNA-Damion and Kasie were here over the 4th of July weekend…They are doing will and are progressing well in their married life. So that means everyone but Cayle was up to Redding and Whiskytown Lake over the 4th. Donna’s sister Renee’ and their family came along also. We swam- we watched the big fireworks display- we had a hoot of a good time.
Emma is back from New York and doing well. She’s getting ready for Shasta College. Sam and Alexandra are finishing summer School. They decided to take math classes to het a head start on next year. Sam will be a Freshman and Sl a Junior. Our last high schoolers. Can the empty nest be that far away?
We’re loving being so close to Hillary and Jason and their beautiful babies… and Meredith and Bill’s four. William is a baseball all-star and has been playing in the All-Star tournament this week… and doing quite well.
Anyway, that’s Calvin’s version of Donna and Cal’s world. Sorry, Jenna. No garden on which to report. Poor soil and impatient gardners!
SHEILA & LYLE- This Summer has been crazy. Lots going on and it's half over. We enjoyed seeing you at the Hunter Reunion. Thanks for making the effort to come. It ment so much to us. Bryce has three companions that are here for the weekend, so the house is full once again. Tanner is getting his mission papers in over the internet. His birthday is the 20th of July. He'll be on his mission soon. Leisha is working half days at Lyles office. Grandma Mortimer is here for a week or so. She is 91 and works in our garden everyday (that Paij and Brent planted). We walk a mile in the morning, and she keeps saying "what can I do next". Shes a joy. We all sang at the Stadum of Fire on the 1st of July. It was awsome. Were picking up a beef we had butchered today. and going to the Rodeo tomorrow night. Lyles building is coming along. We are suppose to be in it on the 1st of August. We love you all. Sheila and Family p.s. It was good to see everyone at Uncle Jack’s funeral. We missed you Calvin and Donna.
Jenna & Kevin- Life is great! We have loved going to Utah so often! (REALLY!) We are looking forward to going up again for Tanner’s farewell! Here in Arizona we’ve been spending lots of time swimming at Brian’s house. Last month Kaden slipped on their rockslide and had to get 9 stitches above his eyebrow. He was scared about getting shots until we mentioned Cold Stone Ice-cream. Primary is busy, but good! We have over 250 kids now! We are working on filling 20 callings! Gavin’s 6th birthday is coming up! I can’t believe my little Gavi-Wavi is growing up! He wants roller-shoes like Kaden and Hunter’s. Kellan will only answer to me if I call him Sugars. He will be 3 in October. Kevin’s work is busy. We are enjoying our suburban. It’s nice to stretch out a little bit. BIG difference from the Taurus! J Well, love you all! Jen
Wendi & Aaron- What’s new in our world? Aaron is starting his surgery rotation today. He has to check out a room at the hospital where he will sleep for the majority of the next six weeks. He will assist in trauma surgeries, and he will be the first one to round on the patient after their surgeries. Aaron is also starting a research project with the ENT consultants. He will be reading cat scans and entering data into the computer on hundreds of patients. The doctor said if they find what they are looking for it will change some major procedures in ENT. Aaron’s name will be on the paper and it will be published world wide. Anthony has four teeth now and he loves to bite! He loves to play ball with mommy as well. Anthony pushes his ball and we both crawl as fast as we can to it. He can go so fast! He laughs the whole time. He thinks it is so fun. We got a pass to the local gym which has an outdoor pool. We go swimming a lot. Anthony loves little kids. Every time one looks in his direction he laughs and reaches for them. Aaron and I love Anthony so much. We are so glad we have him! I’m enjoying being home with Anthony. I quit my job about two weeks ago. I put an advertisement in the local paper to do family, children and senior portraits. I will do these on weekends when Aaron is home. The weather here is so nice. It has been a little warmer the last week then normal. High eighties with about 75% humidity. I really love the summers here. To bad the winters aren’t as nice. Well that is all I have for now. Love you all! Wendi, Aaron & Anthony
ADAM & MOANA-
GREG & LISA-Congratulations to Zach and Kaylee for making Greg and Lisa soon to be grandparents. And Congratulation to Lisa for surviving her mile swim! Lisa is working on the Temple pageant. We hear she’s a big wig there and Kalli is her right-hant man!
