Christmas this year was a little low because John was not here with us.
He was with his gilrfriends family .
I guess that my kids are growing up faster then I want them to.
But the most importent thing is we did get to see him this week . Shane was home and everybody is healthy. We have are friends and family near us. I'm thankful for them and all the lessons we have learned this year. May next year be as good to us as this last year has been. And we are thankful for our friends the Scoresby's especially Keri we are greatful you are still with us. Thank you for all the laughs we have had together!!!!!!!
There will be many, many, many more.

Christmas 2008

Here is a picture of each of us on christmas morning.

Ok ,Keri here is a picture of me on Christmas morning.

Our Christmas tree for 2008!!

Shane has become the mascot of the penguins !!!!!! Last year we were sitting in a friends

(Keri & Steve's) hot tub, and she challenged us to become a polar bear. To be a polar bear you have to sit in the hot tub then roll in the snow and get back in the hot tub. Ok no biggie for me I grow up in Lava Hot Springs ,Id we did this every winter at the hot baths. So keri did it , I did it but Shane just wanted to sit . So he never rolled in the snow. From there on out Shane has been a penguin and he is every proud of it. This year he got a penguin bowl, towel, game, salt & pepper shakersmug, a stuffed penguin, and last penguin ornaments!!!!!!!!
