Vickie is married to Troy Robert Kingsford. Troy is from Newbury Park, California. They met while serving thier missions in the Boston, Massachusetts mission. Troy was Vickie's Zone Leader in what was her first area. Obviously they ran into each other at mission functions from time to time, but that was it for the mission days. Troy went home a little more than six mopnths before Vickie and when she got home he was in Provo going to what was then UVSC. There was a group from the mission-field all in the Provo area for various reasons and they would get together and hang out. Sooner than later the group got a lot smaller and just Troy and Vickie were hanging out. Vickie got home at the end of January. They were engaged in mid April, and married September 16, 1994.
Troy went to UVSC for a short time to get enought credits to transfer to BYU. Vickie had worked in a salon doing hair before her mission, but out of fear of her former boss and not doing hair for a while she looked for something different. After a couple of temp jobs she ended up at Mega Diamond in Provo. It was a good job that provided stable income while Troy went to school. In 1999 Troy gradutaed from BYU with a Masters in Accounting. His first job was for PriceWaterhousCoopers. in Phoenix, AZ. They moved to Mesa AZ in June of 1999. Troy works as a Controller for a real estate development company. Vickie spends her time at home with the kids.
Troy and Vickie are the proud parents of six great kids.
Emily Brooke was born in Utah November 16, 1996. She is now 131/2 and in 7th grade. She is very talkative. You can tell when she hasn't had the opportunity to speak much 'cause you can't get her to quit talking!. She plays the violin and does tumbling and cheer.
Rachel Nicole was also born in Utah March 31, 1999. She is in 5th grade and she just turned 11. She can't wait for her turn to have the teenage life like her sister. She plays the cello and played softball for the first time this year. She did pretty well, ending up onthe pitcher's mound. She is really good at consoing and playing with little ones.
Robert John was the first born in Arizona, October 1, 2001. He is 8 and in 2nd grade. Eh is well liked by all; boys and girls alike! He loves to play most sports and does pretty well. He has very good penmanship and can draw well. He just had soem art work chosen to be displayed in an elementary art show.
Logan Spencer was born in Mesa, March 27, 2003. He is in the 1st grade and just turned 7. He is the wild child! But underneath all the craziness he is a softy. He has a million dollar smile and all his teachers love him even though he tests them in every aspect. he lov es sports as well. He also had some art chosen to be displayed in an elementary art show.
Ethan Thomas was born in Mesa, November 12, 2004. He is 5 1/2 and getting ready to graduate from preschool. Ethan is very good a tputting puzzles together. He also loves to build and create with Legos. He usually does well with anything he can just sit and do on his own. He is pretty quiet and shy.
Laci Elaine was born in Gilbert, September 18, 2007. She was the 1st baby born at a brand new hospital just a couple of minutes away from home. She is 2 1/2 and boy does everyone know it! She keeps us all hopping. And she is so darn cute you can't help but love her. She talks pretty well and lets you know she wants todo it all on her own!!
So back to the family as a whole. They have livedin Mesa for 7 1/2 years before building a home in Gilbert, Arizona which is just south of Mesa. Gilbert used to be all farm country, but now the farms are few and far between. With the summers so dand hot their first option on the new home was a pool! They spend most of the summer there and usually escape the heat by heading north to Utah.
Their favorite sport is whatever is in season! They do LOVE football a bit more than the others though. As for favorite teams, well lets see.... They like the New England Patriots because they are based out of Mass. Troy has some weird like with the Oakland Raiders(it must be the underdog thing) and of course they have to root on the home team....Go Cardinals!!! But when it comes to college there is only true blue blood in their home! And just so we are clear that would be the true blue of BYU(rise and shout)!
The favorite family memories Vickie likes to think about have both been brought up by Tim and Richie (Thanks guys). She likes to think back to the good 'ole Sunday drives up the canyon and the great trips to Lake Powell and even Bear Lake too. Thos have definitely been some good times to look back on.
If you want to know which trait Vickie has that is most like one of our parents: All sh has to ask is ...Would you like to take a ride? If you don't get it you can ask mom or Vickie when you see her in July.
