Matthew's Blessing

Matthew was blessed on Sunday, January 6, 2008. There was a horrible snow storm that weekend, so we are very thankful for those family members and friends who braved the elements and came to share this amazing day with us. This is one neat little man and we are so blessed and grateful to have him in our family and in our home.

Happy New Year!

To celebrate the New Year we went to Rexburg to visit with Jay's family and go to the Rexburg Temple Open House. It was beautiful and so neat to see what the inside looked like after watching it be built out our kitchen window all those months while we lived there.

Merry Christmas 2007

We had a wonderful Christmas! We were able to visit our families in Woodland, UT and Rexburg, ID over the break.

We spent Christmas Eve and Christmas day at home though. We had a candle light dinner, opened our pj's, and after reading the Christmas story, we got to bed so Santa could come.


Santa did find us at our new house and we all enjoyed lounging around in our pj's all day, being together, and playing with our toys.

Ultimately, our favorite gift, attraction, and toy, was our new little Matthew. He couldn't figure out what all the fuss was...

and eventually just fell asleep.
