Good Ol' Ryan

I was sitting at the computer writing Ryan his weekly letter and Tanner came to the computer and we went to Ryan's facebook photos and had a great time remembering our crazy Ryan. The one thing about Ryan that we all love is when Ryan is around, you can always plan on having a fun time. Ryan always made us laugh and made you feel happy when you were with him. I thought I would share some of our fun memories of Ryan before his mission.

Conrad Jenson and Ryan purchased old men masks one Halloween and had so much fun with them. It was the funniest thing ever! When he went up to NAU, he took his mask, an old 1980's robe and on Halloween morning, sat on a bench on compass and winked at all the girls. He really freaked them out!


The boys were just barely 4 years old when Ryan left for his mission. He was their best bud. They have great memories of Ryan coming home from work and taking them swimming every afternoon. Ryan always made time for them and they LOVE him and look forward to him coming home!

High School graduation and some of his friends.

Ryan loved to hike the Grand Canyon. His favorite place in all the world was Havasupai. He could go down and come back up all in one day! However, he LOVED to stay down and play as long as possible.

Ryan loved to cycle. When Mom wanted him to save his money for college and mission, he spent $1300 on a bike. He rode it everywhere, had a few crashes but LOVED the sport.

Ryan loved repelling. He took most of his family and friends often.

A fun dance at NAU, what a hick!!!

We miss him, we wouldn't want him to be anywhere else but we are so excited for June 18th to come!!! He loves the Brits! He has had much success with no regrets!!!
