CATCH UP

Hi All -

I know that it has been a very long time since I did any blogs... So, here is a little catch up ... at least of the things that I know about. I tried to upload some pictures and kept getting kicked out so no pictures for this one...

We had a great family Christmas party and enjoyed the food, crafts, visiting, and SANTA... Some great pictures were taken but not by me so I dont have access to them... Maybe a later post :^)
We were thrilled to see Don, Chris, Kara, and Melissa and her boyfriend... It had been a long time and it was a good visit.

Jake and Nicole came into town for Nicole's grandpa's funeral.. Not so fun of a reason but it was great to see them again and to visit and play with Gavin.

Nate and Jenn moved to Lyman, WY and are right now living with her parents... They are happy in Wyoming and most likely will be there forever. We will miss them and we are just glad that it is only 2 hours away. All of the siblings with young kids now live far away ... and it stinks!!!

Madge has now been promoted twice at her job that she started in September.. She is now a hearing manager where she gets things ready to go to court. She is doing a great job...

Kim is an assistant director for their Stake's production of "Beauty and the Beast"... He has been involved in casting as well as rehearsal.. It will be presented in April.


Abigail was blessed on March 1st... Kim, Leslie, Mom, Kevin, Emily, Jeffery, Nicole, Megan, Val, Reen, and Salagi were able to go to Lyman for it and for a nice luncheon afterwards with Jenn's family. note: Freddy and Brooklynn are now potty-trained. Yes, at the same time.. they are doing really well and Nate and Jenn are very happy to only have 1 left in diapers instead of 3...
Mom, Val, Megan, and Colie went up a day early and had the kids sleep at the hotel with them and enjoyed time together...

Mom now lives with Kim and Leslie... so if she doesn't answer her cell phone you know where to find her...



On a nice note Amber and her kids moved from Star Valley to Bluffdale. She is working and
the kids are meeting new friends and working on adapting to their new school. Amber is looking to go to school in the summer and of course is thrilled to be able to see more of Rich. It is fun to be close enough to just see each other on short notice... A bunch of us were able to go to Wyatt's birthday party at ChuckECheese's ... Chaotic but the kids had fun running from game to game.


If you have any news that you want posted let me know!!!
