Hey folks, here's a quick look my last 10 years. Right after graduation I left for my mission to Montreal, Quebec, Canada. I spent alot of time downtown, in nearby Ottawa, and in a Canadian border town. I loved preaching the gospel. It helped me learn what's really important in life. A couple months after I got home I started classes at BYU. I quickly found out college is expensive. So, to pay off my loans, every summer I took off to sell alarm systems around the country. I lived in New York, New Jersey, Chicago, St. Louis, Detroit, Phoenix and Puerto Rico. I made alot of money real fast, but man that job was tough. I really loved college.
I graduated from BYU in 2005 with a major in Broadcast Journalism. I must of sent out hundreds of resume tapes. Finally I got a job working here in little Kennewick, Washington as a TV reporter. I've been here 2 years. It's a lot of fun, but the deadlines are unforgiving. I got promoted in March to be our Morning Anchor. My contract is over in the spring. And I'm pushing hard to come back to Salt Lake City to do the news there.So here I am, 10 years later. Lived and worked around the country. And all I want to do is come back to Salt Lake City. There's a certain irony there.

Hi Brian! Almost everybody from the old ward has posted now. I had no idea that was what you had been up to. Congratulations!
Brian,
Good for you! How do you like reporting? I bet you're good at it. We kind of switched places. I started out with the news gig and ended with selling alarms! (At least that's what the family business is!) Glad to hear you are doing so well. Annie (Griffith) Miller
Hey Brian,

Brian, it's great to see what you're doing. I really hope you land a reporting gig in Salt Lake. Either way, I'm sure you'll continue doing a tremendous job. Hope to catch up with you sometime.

Brian,
It's been a long time. I'll have to turn on the news to see you next time I am in Washington. You look great, and it sounds like you have made a good life for yourself. Hope I see you in person again some day. Keep in touch. Aubrey (Thomsen) Aguirre
Hey Brian,
I bet people love having you as their anchor. I'm sure you do a great job!

Hey Brian,
Remember when you got a ticket for chasing me and then dragging me around the playground in my dress? (I think it was like 1st grade) Anyway, just wanted to let you know that I forgive you! Just kidding! I am so happy for you and all your success! I can't imagine a better career for you and wish you all the best!

What???? Brian got a white ticket at Hillsdale! He's not perfect? Wahoo! I finally beat him at something. I never got one. Bet Becky never did either! Annie
Brian, thanks for MCing for the reunion. You and Dave were absolutely hilarious! I hope some smart girl grabs a hold of you soon.
