Driggs


Driggs Moore is the only boy in a family of three sisters. Once I remember reading a past annual Moore Christmas letter in which his mom said, "Driggs has to live in a household with lots of drama from his sisters." Nevertheless, Driggs seemed to have survived and is an easy-going kind of guy. He also has lots of energy and enthusiasm for life.

The future looks pretty exciting right now for Driggs. He graduates from Bountiful High School in May, and then he is off to college this next fall. He plans to attend Snow College for a year and then serve a mission for his church. Driggs has grown up a lot in the last year. When I talked to him recently, he seemed very focused on his plans for the future.

Driggs has a favorite class in school this year. It is College Algebra. He really likes math classes in general. At the end of a school week (Friday afternoons), he likes to play basketball both with friends and with his dad. He also is an avid snowboarder, so he looks forward to cold winter days to exercise his snowboarding skills.

From the time Driggs was a little boy, he has been a great conversationalist. With his upbeat personality, he wants to share his world with others. He also is a good listener.

Driggs currently is the owner of his family's small red truck. Each child in the family takes a turn with the truck when he/she reaches driving age. The truck has seen better days, but it still has one more duty to fulfill--sister Abby will inherit it in a few years.

Driggs is one of the most friendly people I know. His optimistic attitude is catching. After talking to him for awhile, the world looks brighter and full of promise. Driggs is a great kid, and we love him.
