LeAnn Needs updated email Addresses

I am so excited by the response we have had with Klinglerville. Every night I have to look and see if anyone else has joined our site. I love hearing from everyone. It really makes me feel a part of this great family. Congratulations Debbie on you new grandchild. I have 7 step grandchildren and I am getting so excited for the end of May to come. Chelsy and Adam are expecting my first grandchild. Adam just graduated from ISU in Welding. He passed his tests with flying colors and has begun a job based in Payson, Utah. The job will take him welding all over Salt Lake Valley. We are really proud of him.
I haven't been able to get any working email addresses from the Morrell Family. If anyone has any of their addresses please send them to me on my email (my_kids@hotmail.com ) Between my and kids is an underscore. Thanks. Let's Keep Klinglerville Growing. If you haven't seen anyone from your family on this site yet, please share the information with them. Some of the email addresses have come back as undeliverable. Love you all LeAnn

THANKS FOR THIS MIRACLE FROM BILL AND MYRNA

learning . Please help to bring your familys to join with us in Klimglerville. Already we have heard from some of the family that are far away from Rexburg and we have not heard from them in a long time.

Greetings from Debbie King

Glen Morrell

Hey Klingler Family,

Did everyone see cousin Glen Morrell in the Church News lately? I was so proud of our famous cousin!! There is a picture of him presenting President Henry B. Eyring with an award from the Collegium Aesculapium, an association of LDS physicians.

You can find the article by googling: Church News. Then press on the "Archives" button and you will be directed to a calendar. Press on the "April 14th" button. Once there, scroll down until you see the article, "Sacred trust to heal physically, spiritually." Here you will be able to see Glen's picture and read the article!!

Thanks Glen for being such a great cousin!!!
We love you!
Kathy

So excited to see what everyone is up to!


Wow, how fun to have a family blog! I am so excited to see what everyone is up to now days and where life has taken you! This is Nancy Klingler Morrison. I am Val's daughter. I am married to Ken Morrison and we have 4 kiddos. Colton is our oldest and he is 10. Myah is second and she is turning 8 in two weeks. Dylan is next and he is 6. Then comes our little Quincy and she is 4. We are living in the most beautiful little corner of the world in Kodiak, Alaska. My husband is working at the hospital here in the Radiology Department. We LOVE it here in Kodiak and are in awe of its beauty every day! (We also love the fishing!) You are welcome to visit our family blog at www.morrisonmonkeys.blogspot.com I try to keep it up to date with our adventures here in Kodiak. If anyone is up for venturing this direction, let us know and we are always open to visitors, especially family!!! We miss seeing everyone at the family reunions and such, but know we love you!



Love,
The Morrison Family
Ken, Nancy, Colton, Myah, Dylan, and Quincy

From the Bitters....
I am so excited! This was a great idea and I love you handy people that know how to set these things up! Thanks for the instructions, I think I can do this! It was so fun to see pictures of Uncle Bill's birthday party and to receive an email from LeAnn! Thanks! I'm so looking forward to being able to visit with all of you and send a happy hug.

We're doing great in Terreton. The grain is all planted and if we can get the snow to stop for a day or two we'll get planting the potatoes. We are loving our family and each stage of life is so fun. We have such wonderful memories of all our cousin times together! Wasn't it fun that Grandpa and Grandma and Elray and Vicki lived kiddy-corner from the park and we had so much fun over there! We have such a wonderful family heritage! Some of my most beloved history is a family reunion we had where dad pay tribute to his parents. He spoke so highly and with such love of grandpa and grandma and the kind of people that they are and the great examples in raising families. Dad said one time when he was little he went out to the garden and there was a big wheel barrow full of dirt and a big hole in the ground. He said, "It made sense to me that the dirt should go back in that hole," so he tipped the wheel barrow over and dumped the dirt back in the hole. Well, out came Grandpa all sputtering and coughing, he had been down there DIGGING that hole! But he said, "Dad didn't get mad. He just said, Dell, that's not a very good idea." and he said that Grandpa had a very even tempermant and always taught with love and understanding. That's the way I remember them too!

So great to keep in touch! I love you all dearly!!

Great idea!

I think this is a wonderful idea to try and keep everyone connected. I've been connecting with cousins on Facebook but I think this is a great place to introduce ourselves again. I am Pam Klingler Rolfe, Val Klingler's daughter. I am married to Josh Rolfe and we are living in Layton, UT with our four kids - Connor (9), Emmalee (8), Andrew (7), and James (4). We also have a dog named Coda. He is a lab and is full of life. We are just doing every day stuff - Connor has been playing football, Emmalee is in competition dance, Andrew plays soccer, and James does whatever he isn't supposed to. :) Josh works in Salt Lake as a network administrator/web developer and is the Stake Executive Secretary for his church calling. He is also Andrew's soccer coach. I am at home with the kids and do a few things here and there to make a little extra "playing" money. I am the Relief Society President in our ward right now which keeps me especially busy, but it is fun. I hope to get to know the kids of the cousins here. I know my cousins, but would LOVE to hear what you are all up to; but after that, I don't really know anyone's kids. So introduce yourself to me here and hopefully we can all connect at the next big family reunion.

The "oldest" of the cousins

Hi to everyone.
I think this is an absolutely great idea. It seems that we were all so close and then the "grown up" life came along. I don't usually write much but I do like to check in and read. One suggestion, especially to the cousin's counsins. When you sign, let us know who your parents are. I know my cousins but then I get lost when it comes to their kids especially after they get married. Life is great and my memories are priceless. I love being a part of Klinglerville!!!! We still live in Victor and probably always will so if you are ever passing through on you way to or from Jackson turn West just north of Victor on the Cedron road and go 1 mile. We are on the left hand side of the road and you are welcome at our home any time!!
Love to you all,
LeRae Klingler Bagley

Uncle Bill's Dream

At Uncle Bill's 80th birthday party he asked me to dream with him for a minute. His dream was that there would be a place on the internet where the Klingler Family could be connected with one another. He felt that we don't know each other very well because we are scattered in so many directions and so busy in all the activities of our own families. He asked me to help find a way this could be done. I suggested the email, He said that didn't work for him and he wanted it to be just one spot where everyone could go on and not have to send something to each individual. Email would take to much time. Blog came to mind. I have never been on a blog and I don't know much about computers except it is a glorified typewriter. Debbie came up beside us and we talked about Uncle Bill's dream. I wanted to know if a blog was a possibility of a blog. We all agreed it would be the right thing to do. She said she was sure her family could get one set up for all of the Klingler Family to use. Soon after she returned home she sent me this email that I have sent to each of you, that tells you how to get on the Klingler Family Blog. I think this will be so much fun and what a great opportunity to stay in touch and share in the lives of all the Aunts, Uncles, and cousins that we will be sharing the eternities with because of the Temple Sealings we have all been blessed with. Thank you Uncle Bill for the great idea to use the computer to stay in touch and thanks Debbie for putting it all together and I thank the Lord for the inspiration to mention Blog to keep us connected. I Love you all and look forward to lots of pictures, family happenings, weddings, births, baptisms, joys, sorrows, thoughts and whatever else you can share. Lets work together and make this the best Blog ever seen. Thanks Debbie for using Klinglerville for our log in. For the Older Cousins I hope it is a reminder of the Great City we created as children while at Grandpa and Grandmas house. We were going to live together forever in this city. Maybe on this Blog we can recreate Klinglerville. Uncle Bill I hope this will make your dream come true. Love, LeAnn Bailey

Welcome to Klinglerville!



LeAnn had a great idea to make a family blog so here it is!! :) This will be a fun way to peek in on each other & see what's up! I hope you will all use it and enjoy it.

This photo is Mom with her brother Keith, Sister Carole and Dad.

It was wonderful to see those of you who came to Dad's 80th birthday party! Life doesn't allow such gatherings very often.
Perhaps this can fill in a void in some small way. I saw something cute today. It said "I love my computer because my friends live in it!" Ha ha! Well, since we can't live in a real Klinglerville, we can improvise & gather online.

Feel free to post photos &/or news from your family.
Happy 80th Birthday Dad!! :)
