Yes, We are Still Alive, Just Haven't Blogged! :)

I am wwwwaaaaayyyyyy embarrassed! It's been FOREVER! I am trying to think what would have kept me away from my blog for so long.....oh ya! LIFE! We've been busy, but who hasn't?! No excuses. I've just been lazy.

I will try to catch up anything noteworthy that has occurred since I posted last. I was released as 2nd Counselor in Primary in August and called as an Activity Day Leader. Way fun, as both Maddy and Brooklyne are in the group. I must have been enjoying that calling, as I was released one activity later. I was called as 2nd Counselor in the Relief Society, Hello! I had just attended the August Enrichment Activity a couple of days before. I thought I was safe, I supported the activity, no such luck. It was a fun calling and I served with amazing sisters! I say was because, I was just released from that calling in November. Why? Because, get ready, Aaron was released as YM President and called as Bishop in September!!!!!! Stop laughing, it's not funny!

Aaron is starting to get a routine, kinda. He is at the Church three nights a week right now with Tithing Settlement. I think we may see him more around the new year, I'm not holding my breath. :) He is amazing, and I know he is humbled by this call and will do all he can to fulfill it.

Maddy turned 11 in November and is growing up right in front of us! She is babysitting more and loves History! She got her braces on just before Halloween and has been a good sport about avoiding soda, sticky, gooey, and sugary foods.

Brooklyne is loving school and is happy she doesn't have braces.....yet. She is learning cursive and loves making cards for everyone.

Ashlyne started preschool and LOVES it! She is still BFFs with Kathy and keeps her radar on everyday around 4:30 to ambush Kathy as she pulls in her garage.

Jocelyne makes me CRAZY! She is growing up everyday and reminds me she is not my baby anymore. Jojo will be a Sunbeam in January and started going to singing and sharing time to get adjusted to the change. She is excited and is pretty sure she will continue to be in charge.

We made it through respiratory viruses, sinus infections, and the stomach flu this fall. We are excited for Christmas and the New Year. We are grateful for the blessings of family, friends, and faith! We love you all and send you wishes for a very Merry Christmas!


P.S. My goal is to get some pics on here and keep it updated in 2010. Do you think Aaron will have time to help me out?! I should probably ask Amber!
