A walk around Kelly's porperty with Ken.

We took a trip out to Kelly's property to look at all the improvements.  It looks really good.  Next will be weed control and fencing.  I love being out there, very peaceful!  I love all the trees and the sound of the water.  I think the kids enjoy it too.

I'm updating my addresses and important dates.

I have a favor to ask from family and friends. Call or e-mail me and let me know what your family members birthday's and anniversaries are. I really appreciate it! I joined a card swap and I have a box of cards that I would like to send out. Also, please leave your addresses so I can update those too. Thanks again!

It's about time...

So, it's been a while...blah, blah, blah... I need to get back into the habit of posting. I even forgot how to get into my own blog. I could make it my New Year Resolution, but then I would definitely not get it done. Oh well. New year, clean slate, fresh start.

Kelly is busy with the ice fishing contest. Thank goodness he hired a couple of people to cover the weekends for him! Now we will get to see him from time to time. He isn't going back to school until Fall so I plan on keeping him busy with "Honey-Do"s" Lucky man!

Jalynn is playing basketball. It keeps her...us busy. She still gets to have fun though. New Years Eve she got to go to her first Tri-Stake Dance. I couldn't wait to hear all about it, then fell asleep before she got home. (Found out the next morning that she had fun and "No..I didn't dance with just him!"...hehehe)

Kortney had her first piano recital. So cool. She is learning to play the violin at school and the piano through private lessons. She got a rip stick for Christmas, but with the snow outside, she can only ride around our kitchen and dining room. She loves to be outside in the cold...I don't know how she can stand it.

Kruz and Kolby are excited to be going back to Joan and Jaden's house after the long holiday break. Thank goodness they love their babysitter! They had a great Christmas and Santa was able to find them. (Whew..we were worried.) Kruz is determined to start his own band at age 4. He got the guitar he has been asking for for 2 years! Kolby got drums, after all, he is in Kruz's band. Kelly gets to be in the band, Jalynn and Kortney have jobs too. Curtains I think. I asked if I could have a job and he said I can sit in the front row and cheer. Yay! Fan club president!

Hope all is well with you!

Jalynn's California trip.

This is really late because I haven't been posting lately, but here it is. Jalynn got to go to California with the RJHS Orchestra. She had lots of fun and didn't want to come home. RJHS Band was there too. They competed in a music festival. They got to go to the ocean, got a tour of famous places, went to Universal Studios and Knotts Berry Farm. I'm glad she is getting these experiences. On a side note, Jalynn turns 14 in July and will be going to Union next year. I can't believe how fast my kids are growing. Kortney will turn 11 and will be in the 6th grade.

The Next Tiger Woods?

Kelly and Micah took Kruz golfing. He loved it and that is all he could talk about for days afterward. I knew he would like it. The only problem is that he is left-handed and the kiddie clubs we have are right-handed. We'll have to get him new ones, eventually, if he keeps up interest in golfing.

Mormon Swashbuckler!

Please pray for Baby Sammi!!!

Sammi is my newborn niece and she needs your prayers. Her parents Les and Melanie could use prayers too. Sammi was diagnosed with RSV. Then she took a turn for the worse. Sammi was sent by life flight to SLC. Her lung collapsed and then they found pneumonia in her lungs. She is a strong fighting baby and we all hope it goes good for her and her family. We love you!
