I'm not really certain where to start with this blog. I want to have a place to post bits and pieces of my family, in particular those who have contributed to my genetic make up. Those who have sacrificed much so that I can enjoy the numerous blessings I enjoy. In particular I am grateful for the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I am grateful to know my Savior. I am grateful for the great plan of a happiness. I can only pray that I will live worthy of the many blessings I enjoy every day. Today I start to introduce you to some of the special people in my life.

These are my beautiful parents. Neil H. Larsen and Nora D Simpson Larsen. They were married July 30, 1950 in Logan Utah. They have 2 children, my older brother Brent and myself. They met before my dad's mission for the LDS church while they were both working at Swifts packing house. My mom was attracted to my dad right away. She says he had an incredible smile and beautiful eyes.
