Christmas 2007

We had an amazing time during Christmas. Mike took the whole week off, so we could do a lot of stuff as family. Our kids were very happy with all the presents they got. Thank you!!

We took this pic at Mike's work in a Christmas pot-luck

Nicole 12th Birthday!!

Wow, Nicole is 12th already. She is so excited with her birthday because there are many changes in her life now. She's leaving Primary forever.... and she's going to Young Women! We celebrated her birthday at Roller Towne. She invited Savanna and Leslie (best friends) then we had home-made cake (you can tell it is home made, isn't it?) and ice cream. We had fun!
Another exciting thing is that she is going to the Temple for the first time. She's gonna do baptism for the dead. thanks Grandpa Jerry! He set up this plan for our new members in our ward and for Nicole too.
