Sheesh.. it's been a long time since I've gotten the chance and taken it to write.
Christmas is here & gone and now it's the New Year. This upcoming year I hope the very best for everyone. I hope that all my loved ones stay safe and healthy and that all your 2009 dreams and goals happen.
2008 was a big year for our family.. we took a lot of big steps. Here are a few of them..
- My baby went in to the first grade which means that all of my kiddos are in school full day (I was so lonely there for a bit)
- Kolton started his first year of High School
- Hayden started his first year of Jr. High
- Wyatt had his tonsils out
- We got our kitchen done so we didn't have to cook on the patio anymore (huge step!! lol)
- Chet turned 8 and was baptized
- Hayden went on his very first scout camp, turned 12 and was ordained a Deacon
- Jasmyn lost her very first tooth (while Chet & Hayden lost about 6 each within about a 2 week period.. poor tooth fairy!)
- We went on vacation and spent maybe 5 days of the week with car breakdowns (what's a vacation without hiccups?)
- During one of those car breakdowns (2 flat tires at the same time) Wyatt had a super special experience he will never forget
- Kelly & I celebrated our 16th anniversary
- We lost a dear Grandma, an Aunt and a Cousin but gained a new niece and have one on the way
- Kolton & his Weber High Sophomore Football team went undefeated 9-0 and so they lettered the whole sophomore team. (Yay Weber!!)
- Kelly's work slowed down so much that they laid off a bunch and then put the guys left on 4 days a week so that means every Monday Kelly & I get to spend the day together with no interruptions :)
- Kolton turned 16
We are looking forward to a New Year and the next steps each of us will take. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
