Happy New Year

HI EVERYONE,

We had a wonderful Christmas. Jim's aunt came in town so it was nice to visit her as always. It is always fun to hang out at home and we have been doing a lot of that. Here are some pictures of the kids playing in the snow and Jim pulling them on the sled hooked up to the four wheeler. They love that, even Blake.

Hi All,

We have been frantically getting ready for Christmas. I procrastinate every year and every year say I will never do it to myself again. Anyway, I think we are finally ready for Christmas. I want to remember why we celebrate Christmas so through it all I try to remind my kids and myself of Jesus' birth often and try to not get caught up in the craziness(it's hard though). The kids are finally out of school and are so excited to have two weeks off. Hope you all have a Merry Christmas. Here are some new pictures I took a couple of days ago.

Welcome to the new blog site for our family. I have a friend who created one and I think it is so cool for everyone to keep up to date on how we are doing. Here are some new pictures I took at Silver Springs this fall. The kids are growing so fast. Alyssa is now eleven, Matt is eight, and Blake is two. Alyssa is helping me create this blog. She is better on the computer than me. How sad! Anyway, with even with our busy lives our favorite thing is being together.
