Christmas Day was alot of fun. Taz was the only one willing to pose for pictures that early in the morning, but everyone got spoiled. Stevi got her Ugh's and a video camera, Justin a digital camera, Cory binoculars, Becky a lap top and Paul a Garmin. Plus, many, many other goodies. Thank you to all the family for their wonderful gifts, we hope you had a very Merry Christmas too.

We woke up Sunday morning to a water leak, this is my family room. This was just the beginning, by the time they were done the entire length of the wall was cut out.

A loud and crazy game of Pit to work off all the food we ate on Thanksgiving. There was a little cheating going on, but we won't name names, will we Michael?

My masterpiece!

This is my newest hobby, making necklaces. I hope I didn't give away what you all will be getting for Christmas. They are fun and easy to make, if anyone is interested we can make some, oh yea, and they are cheap to make. I'll be doing chocolate suckers soon too, if anyone wants to join me, let me know.

To everyone who reads this, you have been tagged. List three acts of kindness that have been shown to you. Here are mine:

1. While setting Paul apart today the Bishop gave him a beautiful blessing. He blessed our family and reminded Paul that the Lord knows our desires and loves us.

2. After being sealed to his family yesterday, Matt called me and invited my family to his home to celebrate with his family and friends.

3. One of my seminary students said, "Thank you," as she left class one day.

I was uploading pictures from my camera and I had all these pictures of the ground, the bushes, the shed and I couldn't understand how all these pictures got on my camera. Then I got to the end of the pictures and solved the mystery.

I don't have any pictures, but trunk or treating was so much fun. Taz and his family came and had a great time. My grandbaby was the cutest witch ever, but fell asleep by the time they got to the church. Oh well, next year maybe she'll be able to stay awake for all the fun.

Chris you dog, you didn't tell us you had a girlfriend

Kinzie is not too sure about this Zombie.

Chad, sandwiched between his two favorite girls.

Proud U of U fans.

So many Zombies, so little time.

Looks like Stevi found a new boyfriend.

Could it be...Edward? Sorry Bella, he found Stevi.

I was having a really bad hair day.

Chocolate suckers, fun to make and even more fun to eat.

Oh, thank goodness he fell asleep. Poor guy, he was trying to stay awake for Goosebumps.

It's been a busy week. Justin flew to North Carolina to drive home with Wade, who just got out of the Army. Paul and Cory are back hunting. Cory has hopes of getting a deer this year, but Paul says he will meed a machine gun to hit a deer. I've been busy with Taz, he spends three nights a week at our house and I am loving it. I will be enrolling him in Early Childhood, so he will be with us Monday thru Thursday. Stevi has been busy with work, school and a very busy social life. As long as Stevi keeps dating non-members, she will keep the missionaries busy. You have to look for the good in everything, right?

Hunting Trip

Paul and the boys went up to central Nevada to go hunting for the first time this year. Justin shot a 3 x 2 on Friday. Unfortunately, he was the only one to get anything. They had to cut their trip short because of the snow storm. They FROZE! My boys are definitely used to the hot desert heat. Paul and Cory are going back next weekend to give it another try.

Taz's Birthday

Better late than never. For Taz's birthday, we went to Pump it Up. He had a blast. That has to be one of his favorite places to go. Here are some pictures from there and opening gifts.
