We have the car!


We were able to go down to Utah last weekend to pick up our new van. I LOVE it! Here's a picture of it next to our old one.








This is Grace, the monkey. She climbs on everything! Her play kitchen is a great climbing toy for her. Angie says she sometimes even gets up to the top of it! She's so independent!










The kids had so much fun. Sarah got to have sleep-overs with Emma. Angie helped them make cookies one night. They were so cute. Here they are brushing their teeth.






We got to visit John and Claire and see their home. The kids liked playing with Dakota, but they were way too noisy and boisterous so we couldn't stay long.





Josh and Dakota.








Roman is such a "cheeser"! I was secretly taking his picture, but he saw me with the camera and immediately stopped what he was doing to give me a big smile. Isn't he so cute?! In all we had a fun, productive trip.




Sarah said something in her prayer this week that was so sweet. She prayed that President Hinckley would be able to give his "honey" a hug now that he was in heaven with her. The kids were pretty sad when they found out Pres. Hinckley had died, and had lots
of questions about it. We are now going to watch his funeral on TV.

What a wonderful thought by Sarah. She is always thinking of others.
We loved having you all visit!

Melanie,

I love the years' highlights, but does this mean I'm not getting a Christmas card?
