Christmas 2008

This slideshow begins with the night we decorated the tree. For some reason the kids and Evan started a tradition of goofing around while I get the tree "fluffed." Then the next pictures are of Christmas morning and afternoon. I love the one of Aleeya sleeping in Conrad's arms.

New House Update

We had a good snowstorm yesterday. Unfortunately not all of the shingles were installed on the roof yet. We have about 75% of the roof done. We really have been blessed with great weather.

Great Room


We bought our current home 8 years ago. It was a track home and we were able to pick out a few things on the house. We were really excited to build a custom home this time. But I am amazed at how many things need to be decided. We love being able to pick everything out but it does get overwhelming sometimes. (Especially when what I pick out is "over the budget"!) The house seems to be crawling along right now. They are working on plumbing and electrical. After the drywall goes up, I think it will seem like things are moving again. I can't wait to have you all over when it is done!

Thanksgiving

We had a nice Thanksgiving with Evan's family. Evan's parents are still on their mission in Siberia, but we enjoyed spending time with Evan's 2 brothers and 2 of his 3 sisters. Check out the Rock Band video!
