Christmas Letter 2010



So I am behind on posts, I need to upload Jasmin's videos of her school program and I will soon, lots of pictures too...we just have been recovering still so everything is behind.

Here is the update letter, when you get your christmas card from us ( sometime like next week I will mail them :) ) it directs you here for the letter and pictures. So here goes.

One word can describe this year and that is FAST! Where did it go? We got pregnant in March and somehow it was December before we knew it. We tried to fill the summer with as much as we could, tons of parades, Jasmin took a tumbling class, Seven Peaks season passes with Aunties and Uncles so went there a couple times a week. Then school started, so off to Orem 3 times a week for that; then Jasmin made the competition team so dance 2 times a week... poor Ryken is so ready to be in school, he cannot wait until next year. He is so full of energy, we might have to look into spring soccer this year.

Christmas came early for our family, 16 days early to be exact. Zackary was born on Dec 9th, and has been a joy since. Both Jasmin and Ryken love him; Ryken can't wait for a buddy to play with and Jasmin loves holding him and kissing his head. Mommy and Daddy love how mellow our little guy is.

Steve and I are well. He is still at Pepsi and I still sell Close to my Heart, Usborne, and now Scentsy from home. We both enjoyed playing basketball with our ward this year and keep busy with our church callings ( Steve is still assistant cub scout master and I enrichment coordinator and both of us still on ward activities committee. )

We look forward to 2011, hopefully it will bring good fortune in the shape of us selling our home and getting a bigger one now that we are a family of 5. We wish all those who are reading this many blessings and good health to you and your loved ones.

Merry Christmas! And may your new year be very happy!

This is a picture of me meeting another Mormon Momma :)  She came to my uppercase living party last week, so sweet of her :)  I know, I look like death warmed over, felt like it too, it was right before I was diagnosed with the sinus infection.  Anyhow, figured I would get it up, it is about time.  I have pics of the babes with Uncle Anthony before he left for the summer again that I need to get up.  Yesterday was Auntie Jujee's bday, so happy birthday to her.  Tomorrow is our 4 year anni, so happy anni to my hubs, I love you  :)

So yes, since I didn't have near as many pics as I thought, figured I would write an update, I owe you that much :) Let's see, the day I posted our Christmas letter little man decided to start walking. He is so stinking cute to watch do this, he looks to little to, but hey sister was doing it at 9 months so technically he was a month later :) He leans his weight on his hands and pops up his bum onto his feet and stands up and off he goes. Watching him go after sister or "zombie walk" ( arms out stretched ) over to you is so much fun. Ha, even tries to dance like he sees sister do, and bounces a little or walks in circles after her. Sometimes it amazes me how much fun these little people can be. He waves and sounds to say "bye" when he does. He and sister got little play cell phones for Christmas and he will open his and put it to his ear and say "hi." He loves to antagonize sister, and he knows just how to do it too, the little stink. He ...

So. I apologize for slacking, I seriously feel like I have hit empty and yet I am still going some how. After the whole enrichment bash and then the week of halloween festivities and then a week of getting stuff for my card class and ctmh meeting ready and going from one event to the the next, I just keep putting it off. Did I mention in that time we got a new furnace from the weatherization people just to have it break down and then to find holes in our new flooring? Plus I have my first bookfair this week that I had to get ready for last week and then a vt conference on Saturday that need food for it and little man finally broke his teeth through on Saturday and yet still isn't sleeping through the night... so yes, life is draining and I keep putting off posting and I apologize for my slacking. To fill the void, head over to this site if you want to try to win a quilt, they are actually quite cute, and for my plugging it here I just got 3 extra entries.
