Farm Christmas 2015

We have sweet memories of Christmases on the farm. This year our kids were able to have lots of fun playing with cousins and weren't as clingy as past years... I take that back, this doesn't apply to Tucker, who was glued to myself the entire time. Great memories we will never forget!

Mary's Farewell weekend!

Mary was called to serve in the Boston Massachusetts Mission and departed for the MTC during the holiday season. What a brave girl to leave right before Christmas for somewhere colder than Wallsburg. We love writting her emails and reading hers. I'm sure she's the Sister Missionary that many of the Elders hope to meet up with after the mission and that her companions admire. We love and miss her! To send her off in style, we shot guns in the freezing cold.

Tucker is 1!

This little man is a constant source of Joy in our lives. He is my little side kick, the one that wants his daddy all the time. He has had a few health scares, and we have had some special moments getting to witness miracles as he continues to overcome these things. We sure love our Tucker, and he is 1 now! Tucker is sweet, simple, happy, and loves to be cuddled. Happy Birthday little man!

Halloween 2015

The product of letting the kids do their own makeup for Halloween was costumes that resembled a Lamanite and a brazen princess. We made our annual visit to Glen and Doreena Shepherds, and got to see the salt and pepper shakers. Even our least favorite holidays are fun because we get to spend them together.

Family pictures 2015

Family Pictures... every year... theyre becoming less of a surprise, and more humorous. The process seems to be getting quicker... however this could be because of better coaping mechanisms, but either way this years session had minimal upsets by myself and the pictures turned out really well.
