Jen's "Stitches"!

Jen just finished this gorgeous new skirt! She did almost the whole thing herself (she used the new machine she got for Christmas)! I'm so proud of her!

Hooray for Saturday!

Fruit always looks yummier on Bountiful Baskets morning!

It's a Perfect Christmas Eve!

Jen's at her friend's house, Jer's snowboarding down at the pit, and Jess's sledding! Jonathan's "hybernating". There's the fluffiest snow falling. The tree lights are sparkling. I'm about to put turkey in the crock pot. Dad's here. I just talked to Mom. Mike's wrapping up to take a week off. Love it!

Snow Day!

We woke up this morning to a wonderful new blanket of snow.

Jess ran down the hall and shouted, "Look!  My very first birthday present of the day from Mother Nature!!!"  :)

Let the party begin!

Jonathan's friend kicked off his birthday celebrations perfectly tonight by surprising him with a decorated room. She did it while he was out at Young Men's. Well done, Kenzie!

New Request

Jess: Mom, you need to have a baby.
Me: Um, ok, why?
Jess: I need a baby brother or sister to take for show-and-tell.

LOVE St. George!

I love St. George! We're baking pies right now (10:30 pm), in mid-November, with the windows open!

P. S. Last night, Dad's neighbor was hanging Christmas lights on his palm trees while watering his front yard!
