Jason Head


It's surprising how few pictures I have of Jason. This one was taken almost exactly a year ago while boating at Palisades reservoir. Jason will be arriving at the SLC airport this Sunday after spending nearly five months in Valdez, Alaska working construction at the salmon cannery there. He said that he hasn't cut his hair in all that time so I would imagine that he will look a lot like Big Foot when he gets off that airplane. I'll have to get a picture of that for posterity!

This is our gentle giant Jason, standing with his beautiful little grandma on May 19Th, 2006. The occasion was Jenny and Corby's wedding day.

Mike from Iraq


Get a load of that smile! This picture was taken on June 20th, 2007 just minutes after Mike walked off an plane and into our arms after nearly a year in Iraq. He is holding his nephew Hayden after meeting him for the first time. We only got two weeks with Mike, and then regretfully he had to return to Iraq. He was anxious to go though as he was concerned about his family there; his buddies in arms. His tour of duty is over the first part of October and we are so looking forward to his homecoming. Mike's responsibilities in Iraq keep him in harms way all the time. He is involved in the most dangerous and critical missions there. Because of that, he could surely use as many prayers as can be offered for him and his buddies. Please continue to remember him in yours. There has been an American flag flying at our house from the day Mike left and will be retired when he comes home to stay. Our community has flown flags all the way down mainstreet from day one also and plan to take them down when all of our hometown soldiers are home at last.

Kitch & Angela Head


Hello from Kitch, Angela and Jaxon Head. This picture was taken at the Head family reunion on June 26Th, 2007. Kitch is a 06 graduate from BYU and is working as a CNA. He was accepted into a nursing program this summer and is currently number one in his class, with his eye on becoming a nurse anesthetist. Kitch's beautiful wife Angela (07 BYU graduate) is also working as a CNA and training for the Saint George Marathon this October. It is a full twenty six mile marathon...but after working a full time job and chasing after Jaxon, it should be a piece of cake! Wish her luck!!!

Jaxon Head


My name is Jaxon! I'm the son of Kitch and Angela Head. Here I am trying on big yellow bowls at my grandma's house in Wyoming. This picture was taken on August 11, 2007 when I was fifteen and one half months old. I can walk, talk, climb, run and love to explore everything in my world. I keep my parents pretty busy trying to keep up with me. I love to hug love fuzzy animals and am so happy when I get to eat Popsicles!

Head Reunion


Paul and Gale Head, and Mike at the Head family reunion June 25, 2007. The reunion was scheduled to be when Mike was home on leave. In Iraq, his missions generally run at night so he rarely is exposed to the sun...and fully armored when he is so still didn't get much sun. He made up for it at the reunion and sported a healthy sunburn to take back with him to Iraq.

Hayden Terrell Carter


Sweet little Hayden Terrell Carter. (Born February 27th, 2007) He is such a happy baby, always quick to smile. In this picture he is just three and a half months, but today at a healthy five months, he can do so much more than just smile. He can giggle, grabs everything and chews on it, has just barely cut his first tooth, rocks on his hands and knees, and has been spotted taking one or two tentative crawling steps. He's on the verge of being self propelled! LOOK OUT WORLD!

Carter Family


Hello from the Carter Family. This is Jennifer (Head) Carter, her husband Corby Carter, and Hayden at just over three months. Jenny is a Dr. of Physical Therapy and works in SLC. Her husband works at the airport, and is well on his way to becoming a commercial pilot. What a handsome family!!! This picture was taken on the 5th of July 2007, on the night before Mike was to go back to Iraq.
