Here our beautiful Emee in mom and dad's front yard.

Here a picture of the Northern Utah Valley from mom and dad's.

So I surprised the family by taking them to Utah for Christmas. As you can see we'll be having a white Christmas. Here's Chayse and Maryn.

Alli and Emee.

And Oliver.

And Natey.

Who's the lucky one? I am! I am! My sweet friend Jaime is moving to Sacramento and I'm very happy for her and her family but I will miss her very much! Very much! She always has a smile and something happy to say. I invited her to come over and help me (or rather me help her) make my Thanksgiving pies. She is the best Pie Maker! The crusts are soooo yummy. We made a fabulous apple pie that I finished the last bite to. It was sooo good. We also made a chocolate cream and a banana cream but the banana didn't set up. It was still yummy (kinda like pudding). I'm so glad she could come and make a special memory with me. It'll help when she's not here!

Happy 18 Year Anniversary to Nate and Alli! We're gettin old but we're still havin fun so it doesn't matter.

...is my two front teeth! Maryn lost the first one the Saturday before Thanksgiving and the second one had a little help from Uncle Gary the night before Thanksgiving. She saved them up because the tooth fairy called and said is she gave them both to her, she would leave her $5. She's making good money on those little teeth. She even has a cute little lisp!

We added one more fun thing to Chayse's room. My friend April made this vinyl for her and Daleen and April came over to help me hang it. I need reassurance that it looks OK! She loved it. She even came home sick the day we did it and she still managed a little smile! That is so Chayse!

The "Little People"...as Allison calls them.

Here's our latest family pictures.
