Hillstrom Christmas Party

Check out some of the pictures from the Hillstrom Christmas party in Huntsville. The hay ride was great!! Thanks, Mike and Cindy.

Wow, there hasn't been much activity here on this blog. There has been a ton of things happening in the family too. As you all know this has been a very busy year for the Orem Hillstrom's. Just to recap, Emily got home after a year in Hong Kong a week before Scott's wedding. Scott married Heidi on Dec. 20, 2008, Jeff's 60th was on April 2nd and thanks for the party. Lori married Geoff Hack on May 30, 2009. Rebecca added twins to our clan two days after Loris' wedding on June 1st. Emily married Gary Fullmer on Oct. 17, 2009. It has been busy but so very rewarding. Thanks for all of your love and support. Let's keep up the postings. We would love to hear about you. We look forward to the Christmas party at Mike's on Dec. 19th.

Happy Graduation!

Congratulations to our brother and cousin James, who graduated from The Ohio State University's Dental School in June and became a full-fledged Dentist in July. Some of us have mixed feelings about letting James anywhere near our mouths with a drill, but a wonderful accomplishment none the less.

Happy Retirement!

After many years of prioritizing his life (1) family, (2) work, and (3) golf, Steve has decided to rearrange his priorities to (1) golf, and (2) family, eliminating work altogether. Our Dad, Brother and Uncle Steve retired earlier this month. Congratulations and best wishes for a happy retirement!
