Due to a very busy month, including some unforeseen circumstances, I did not get a Christmas card in the mail this year. Therefore I have decided to post our Christmas card online and hope that family and friends will see it and know that we are thinking of them….
Here it is!
------------------------------------------------------------
-Having a healthy Mary Kate once again after enduring a scary, rare illness and a long hospital stay.
(All of us)
-Yanking flags and blocking opponents to help your team win flag football games. Having your dad be your coach. (Jeffrey)
-Learning to master those tricky chords on the piano so you can accompany yourself while singing Jingle Bells and Frosty the Snowman. (Jonathan and Jeffrey)
-Making it to the top of Mount Timpanogos without dying! Making it back down again without dying! The view at the top was spectacular too. (Jill)
-Finding the perfect paint color for the master bedroom and installing a new toilet in the master bath that actually flushes! (Jill and Mike)
-When the home improvement projects are finally complete! (Jill and Mike, mostly Mike)
-Making it to the halfway mark of your first year of Jr. High and discovering that you actually like Jr. High. (Mary Kate)
-Sitting all alone in the wide open, on the top of Boulder Mountain, during a raucous and breathtaking thunderstorm while all the scared Scouts hide in their tents. (Mike)
-Gawking at the sights on the the streets of New York with some of your favorite people. (Jill)
