Parties



Every year Kevin's work puts on a Christmas party for the children. They are very kind to make children friendly food, give each child a gift, and they have lots of crafts and games.




The girls loved doing the crafts at the party.



Brynn was okay with Frosty but she didn't like Rudolph. Everyday in the car she asks to play Frosty the Snowman and she sings along with the CD. It's too cute.





Ashleigh and Brynn love to dress up alike. Today they are in red and pink. They truly are good friends.



Kamren just started basketball at the YMCA and he loves it. I love watching him play sports. He loves to be active.



He has a few practices and then in January he will start to play with other teams.



These are all the amazing women I work with at church in the Young Women's. We got together for Christmas and it was fun to just chat. They always inspire me to be better.



We have been trying to find ways to make Sundays more meaningful so Kevin thought of doing journals in the morning before church. I didn't think it was going to work and I was wrong. I'm grateful for Kevin's inspiration for our family. The kids love writing in their journals each Sunday. Kevin and I get to do a little bit of ours also. I just think it's so cute to watch Brynn try and write like her siblings. She really looks up to them.

Hannah would love to play with Ashleigh! Lets get them together over Christmas break.
I'll get your phone number from Valerie and give you a call.

Wow! I'm surprised the journals worked too!!! Way to go, Kevin, that inspired priesthood holder! Tell him I say hi. Wow, your kids are growing up SOOO fast. I mean, wow, look at Kamren playing basketball. He is so grown up. I remember those Christmas parties my dad took me too - that was fun to get gifts there. :)
