Christmas was a bit different this year. Kids are moving on and life is changing rapidly for us, as we knew it would. You can't have all of your kids at once and not expect them to leave at once.
We did have a fun photo shoot this year. The wheat field was a real challenge because the farmer was wanting to cut the wheat and we were wanting to get pictures in the field. But as luck would have it for us, the farmer had to wait on bad weather to cut, so we slipped in on a few good evenings and got these photos.
Dallin and Jessica are still living close by. Jessica plays in the symphony and Dallin is still a goldsmith. Elli is just growing up and loves to sing and dance. We sure do love having them in our lives as much as they can be.
Lorin and Joy were married this November. They live even closer to us. They are both going to school and building a life together. We love having another daughter in the family.
Carson is home from Brazil and going to school as well. He's a pleasure to have around. He's still living here with us.
Bryton spent Christmas in Peru. He's doing really well and is very happy there. His Spanish is getting better and better.
Aspen is finishing up her senior year in high school. Next year will see big changes for her as she's turning 18. She plans on school and work. She most likely has to go through some major surgery this summer, so may have to let mom take care of her for a while.
Jeff is still goldsmith, as well as being super busy with chickens and just keeping this place from falling apart around us. He works really hard.
Julie is transcribing and painting. She is busy just keeping everything together and being a mom.
Our family is happy and well. And for that we are thankful.
Have a wonderful year and may God bless you.
