This is so funny! Jared is such a funny guy.

Joanna & Jacob having a great time.

Merry Christmas! God Jul!

Hope you are having a great Christmas. We have a white one. It's freezing out there, but we've just been cozy here at home. Our neighbor, and friend, Mari came over for dinner. We have Lance visiting from Virginia for 10 days. It's fun having him here.

Here's Josh and what he wished for for Christmas - Speed Stacker Cups.


Joanna is helping us remember what Christmas is all about.

We love you!

Jared
Here's Jared and Joanna.
Here's Josh.

Joanna has been doing great, except for today, she's laying on the couch with her tummy hurting. That makes me nervous since Jared had a stomach flu the last two days. She's loving school and life, except bedtime. I think she would really like it if the day never ended. Her prayers are always so beautiful, remembering Jared and asking for his head to fill "out". If you read this please keep him in your prayers too. We're hoping his head will fill out over his right eye so he won't need another surgery. She loves Jesus and says she can't wait to see him again. Here she is.

Jared has gotten so big. He loves his brothers and sister. He thinks they're so funny. He has two new habits that need to stop. He wants to put my nose in his mouth and he likes to spit whatever he's eating on the floor. Today he loves to see his chocolate colored spit puddles on the floor. He made as many as he could. But, on a positive note, he's good with a rag and cleaning up. I'm sure he'll make you laugh too.

Welcome to our Blog!


I'm so excited to get this blog started and to be able to share what's going on in our lives and pictures of our little cuties.


First, congratulations to Dad & Mom on their new house they just purchased in Lehi. They planned to find a place to rent out and found a place for themselves. It's beautiful. Luckily the back yard is ready for lots of fun with awesome playground equiptment for when my kids go to visit. They've never had family in town so you can imagine how exciting this is for us.

Jacob's birthday is this month. He couldn't wait for December to come around. On December first he said, "I love December!". That was music to my ears. He's talking so well now and to hear him share his feelings and opinions is a huge breakthrough. The other day at dinner he wanted more root beer and as usual Bob told him he had to eat his food first. He cried and in a frustrated voice said, "That's not fair!" I loved that. His language is taking off. See what a cutie he is.


Now, Joshua. Joshua has such great potential in any sport he chooses. He's so graceful. He rides his ripstick like a pro snowboarder. Speaking of snowboarding, he gets to go with his 5th grade class to snowboard at solitude on December 14th. He's modest but awesome. He also is the one to show me and Bob how to work the camera and computer. Thanks to him you get to see videos of them at the Skate board park. Here he is...
