So, we all may write a little more on our blogs now that church is earlier in the day, but we'll see. The Christmas season went well. We went caroling to some friends and family, we went and saw Christmas lights, Errolyn had a Christmas Party with a ton of 6th graders, instead of acting out the Nativity this year we read and discussed it, we had lots of family in town, and we gave and received good presents. Cheryl came into town with her family and it was fun to hang-out and play games with her. We had the in-town family come to our house for a big Christmas gathering. The kids also had a blast playing with their cousins. Mom, Dad, and Janet came after Christmas and we got to spend time with them either at our house or at David and Heidi's house. Games we played were Shanghai, Tossed Salad, Cash Flow, and Disruptis.
Allie is nursing great now and gaining weight well, although I may have said that last month too... it just took a little while to get her there. Allie is a smiley, happy, laughing baby and the kids adore her. Errolyn starts volleyball this week, and Logan and Emma start basketball. Cameron's studying for mid-terms. Emma's been sick and throwing up the last two days but is finally feeling better today. Mike's been busy installing a garage door opener at the Stake Center. :) He is attaching a camera to it so it will retract into the ceiling when not in use. It will be pretty cool. I've been busy preparing for our upcoming Stake Conference, Music Training, and Music Workshops.
Now that Allie is sleeping through the night (10 hours now!) I've had to start helping Mike take Cameron to Seminary... not fun... so tiring! But, Cameron loves seminary and has a great teacher. We made our new family goals for the year and one of them is to do quarterly family service projects, but I want to try to do them monthly if possible. So, we scheduled out the first four and the kids are excited. I'm sure more has happened, but that's the short version. :)
