We got there & it was FREEZING & very windy! So we made the sandwiches, laid down our seats in my Explorer & we all piled in a ate our lunch! It was so pretty up there, most of the leaves have changed & have fallen off the trees but it was so nice up there!

Merlins New Truck

So Merlin has finally decided that he needs a new truck! After all these years of us telling him that he needed one he finally gave it to us and got one! Thank heavens because i was tired of him taking the van with the trailer hooked to it! (the kids say it made him look like a hick! driving a astro like van with a trailer hooked to it!!) His new truck is a 2004 Nissan Frontier! He loves it! And so do we!

It's New Years Eve!

We are having a great party at our house, wish you were all here... this has been a great year. Can you believe that Skyler will be home the middle of May!!! Time is going by so fast, which also means that my other children are growing up too. We have had many wonderful memories to remember this year. First of all, Merlin is working part time at Lin's as a bag boy and he LOVES it, even though it embarrasses the twins terribly! He is the executive secretary in our ward and loves spending time with the bishopric. This is his first time not being involved with the scouting. Whitney loves living in St. George and I look forward to every moment I get to spend with her. She works in Dr Callahan's office and is a part time student at Dixie State College. The twins are Juniors and are on the Tiger basketball team. They love school and BOYS!!! Kyson has many talents, basketball, soccer goalie, piano, cello and his new found love...ART. He has painted two really beautiful pictures I have hanging in my home. Stop by and see them sometime. He is also working hard towards becoming an Eagle Scout. I am now staying really busy as our wards new Relief Society President and for the second time in my life I get to be with ladies my own age, give or take a few years. I love what I am doing. I am also the lunch secretary at Three Falls Elementary School here in Hurricane. I love being with the kids every day. I have a great life and am so thankful for my many blessings I receive each day. What a beautiful place we live in and I want to thank you for all you do for me and my family. I love you all. Happy New Year!!!
