Jonah was so excited to meet Lighting McQueen.

Family from Utah

Hey all, I just thought that I would share what we have been doing the past few weeks. My inlaws came for a visit. It is wonderful to have them here. We took the kids to Disneyland and California Adventure over the first weekend they were here. The kids were so excited because we stayed in a hotel not too far from the 2 parks. We were up early and up late but loving every minute of it. On Sunday we came home but decided to catch a ward sacrament meeting. We ended up at a Samoan ward meeting. It was interesting but different at the same time.

Here is Kristianne's school pic. Isn't she beautiful?

Santa at Breakfast!!! What!?!?!?!

I think that Jonah is getting really excited to see if Santa comes to his house. I can't even put any gifts out under the tree because he has tried to open them. Another reason that Kristianne, Noah and Jonah are excited, is because they have seen Santa again at breakfast for the primary kids on Sat. It was really cool. Noah's comment to me was "He has a real beard so he is the real one." I love his honesty about situations.
Here is a picture from the breakfast from on Sat. morning. It has gotten really rainy today so we are getting more excited to have Christmas come. It feels like winter with the cold outside and the warm house inside.

Christmas in California

Merry Christmas,
I just thought that I would write to wish you all a very merry christmas. We went to see the christmas lights in Chino. We had a wonderful time. It was chilly but not as cold as others in our family. While we were walking around we found Santa Claus just checking on our kids.

Here is a wonderful picture of Noah from school pictures. Kristianne will be coming soon. At least I hope.

Just an update

Hey all,

I just wanted to let all know what we are up to. Kristianne is doing very well in school. Her favorite subject is Reading and Math. Noah is also doing amazing in school. He is top of his class in Science and Math. Jonah is being a crazy two year old. He is so full of energy that sometimes I wish I could bottle it and just take some every day.

Just a little note, I am no longer the Relief Society President for the Arlington Ward. I have be released after just a few short months. Tom and I are now nursery leaders for Senior nursery. There is a total of 20- 22 kids in nursery so they thought that it would be good to split it.

Tom and I are just making it a fun time for our kids. With the holidays coming we are just wishing you an exciting and joyful holiday.
