Not much happening

It's been way to long since my last entry. I love to read all of the blogs and I forget to put something on mine. We are going to the cabin in Bear Lake this weekend. Heather, are you jealous! I would love it more if the Young Men weren't going to be there. (now maybe your not jealous.) They are going snow shoeing and I am going to love being lazy and reading a new book that I can't wait to read. It's called Hunger Games. It was recommended by a lot of people. Our book group is reading a book called Goose Girl. It was fabulous. I am not a fairy tale kind of person but this was so well written I couldn't put it down. Another book I have just finished is called Escape. It is about a women who escaped from pologamy with her 8 children. A miracle. It had my heart racing and got me angry and then humbled at how blessed I am. I need some help on how to put a place on my blog of books I have read and star the ones I especially loved. Bill just finished a book called The Kite Runner. We have watched the movie and it is a keeper. I haven't put a video on the blog for so long I can't remember how to do it. I will get my but in gear and put the dancing of the grandkids at Christmas in our basement. It's the best. Bill has been sick with headache and has been out of commission for about a week. I just finished painting the bathroom downstairs and we will attempt to put some tile on the wall and the floor. We love all of you so much and feel bad that we let so much time go by before we see each other. I would love to have a once every two months or so have a dinner with everyone. Hope all is well with everyone.

Next time I will have the video's.

New Year's Eve

Bill and I went over to Melanie and Renato's and played Wii. It was hard for me to stay up but it was a lot of fun. Some friends of Renato and Melanie came over and they had kids. Bill was very patient teaching the kids how to play games on the wii. My goals for this year is to be more fit. I want to be more grateful for the things that I have. I want to have a stronger testimony. I want to be more joyful. I love to be happy (who doesn't) so I want to do things that will make my life a happy one. I really am not very old but when I think about how many years I might have left on this earth I want it to be full of life and have fun with my grandkids!! (and my children {:) I am going to try and retire in 6 years. I will be 61 actually when I retire and I hope that I can add many adventures to my life. I want to be more in love with my husband each day. I want to be more of a support to all of my children. Life is good. {:)

Christmas continued

Emma and Kyle were laughing so hard they could hardly play. Gabe in the background

Kyle was running back and forth having a great time. Peyton is enjoying just watching him.

Lucas was playing horsey. Emma and Donovan and Julia are in background.

Here are a few pictures from Christmas, and I mean only a few because we didn't realize we weren't taking pictures! Not good.

Christmas 08

Christmas came and went quickly. When you are so busy time flies. We went to the Bucks and had a sing a long with people in our ward. The Bucks have such great voices I just loved hearing them sing. That started our two week vacation. The best is all the grand kids were here.
