We have been blessed with wonderful friends in our life.  One family that has touched us in so many ways is the Alan Christensen family.  We have been friends with them for 23 years.  Alan, Janis and every single one of their children, in-law children and grandchildren, we consider to be our best friends.  Alan and Janis's son Seth has ALS.  We love him and have learned so much from him over these past 23 years.  He is wise beyond his years and has taken on this fight with great faith and courage.  He hasn't given up, but has taken every opportunity to try to prolong his life and has spent his days serving and loving his friends and family.  He is a great example of enduring well, is an amazing missionary and on top of all this, is incredibly funny.  We love this little family so so much.  When given the opportunity to take a bucket of ice water for him...we jumped at the chance!! We decided that car washing day would be the perfect time.  Elder Taylor Byington gave us the challenge.
