Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas!



Shane and Sheri have had quite an adventurous year. Most of you know the details of what has gone on this year but for the few who do not, here is a summary.


The biggest highlight was that we got MARRIED this year. What an amazing day our wedding was, one we will never forget. The day was perfect, what more could we ask for. We love being married and have enjoyed the change and new experiences it brings.


Sheri was also diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma 5 weeks before our wedding. Chemo started the week before the wedding and lasted until the end of July with another month of Radiation afterwards. She is happy her hair is growing back and she is feeling good. Being married and cancer free are her two favorite terms for the 2008.


Shane moved his office, sold his place and made a clean cut from living in Utah County to Salt Lake County. Sheri also sold her place and together we bought a new home in Draper. We love our home and moving into a place together has been nice. We live in a great neighborhood and now enjoy teaching the 6 year olds at church.


Amongst the marriage, chemo, and moving we managed to get in a few trips this year. Orlando, St. George, S. California, Boston, and N. California were all fun times and we were happy to get away from life for several days.


We want to thank all of you for blessing our lives this year. More then ever we have appreciated our family, friendships, the prayers, and the many kind thoughts and deeds in our behalf. We are especially grateful to the Lord for his tender mercies and blessings in our lives this year.


2009 will bring more marriage, more cancer free testing, more vacations, and hopefully no moves!


We hope everyone has a great Christmas and a Happy 2009!

Shane and Sheri Glover

Tim Tam Slam Party!



Last night was our annual Tim Tam Slam party. For those who don't know what that is, Tim Tams were introduced to me on my mission. They are very yummy biscuits (cookies) that you can buy in Australia and other places. They are chocolate cookies with a chocolate soft center. They used to be hard to come by here, however, Target now sells them...yeah! Now...you can just eat a Tim Tam, no problem. But to Slam a Tim Tam is a whole other experience. The slide show will show the process but basically you get a mug of hot chocolate, bite off the ends and suck the hot chocolate through the cookie as it melts, and while using no hands, slam the whole cookie into your mouth without letting it disintegrate on the counter or into your hot chocolate.

So every year around the first snow fall (we were a little late this year) we get together to carry on a tradition of Slamming Tim Tams. It started with just a few of us and have grown. This year was a lot of fun and so I put together a slide show of our night.

Thanks everyone for coming, it was a lot of fun!
