Davis High Class of '98 Now!

Lance Butcher
Hey! It's cool to read everyone's posts! Congrats to all the success, cute families, etc. (I think I'll follow my ol' bud Daniel Henderson's example and post a Halloween pic too--FYI: I'm Will Ferrell's cowbell guy).

After DHS, I went to Weber for a year with a music scholarship for trumpet. I then served an LDS Mission to Ecuador (I actually was a comp with another '98 DHS alumni Kevin Hunt for a bit—crazy!).

After my mission, I had a lot of fun: traveling (Costa Rica, Jamaica, etc.), and gaining a lot of weight lol (not so scrawny anymore). College wasn't my priority like it should've been, but after taking a semester off here and there, switching my major twice, I'm FINALLY going to be graduating this Fall in Accounting ("You know a lot of people go to college for seven years...")

I never played the trumpet much again, but I learned the bass guitar and played with a few different bands for a few years. One of my groups had a little bit of success down in the podunk venues of Provo and Orem. My smokin' hot wife-to-be Chelsey was living in Orem after graduating from Beauty College, so she became our band's Yoko Ono, lol, and I got married June 22, 2006.

Since then, I've taken school more seriously, and am now in a good accounting internship. Being a bum was fun for those 5 years, but married life with my best friend Chels is the best by far! She puts up with the fact I'm a nerd/dork; I guess that's because I can make her laugh, but she's pretty crazy herself.

The very best of news of all for Chels and me is a BABY ON THE WAY!!! We are so stoked--due Nov 16! In fact, we just barely found it's going to be a BOY! It was the most exciting thing for us—happiest we've ever felt!

Hope I didn't bore everyone too much with this, any of you old buddies out there give me a shout! Lata'!
