January Happenings...

We took the opportunity the school gave us and built snowmen in the yard.

This was the day school was cancelled.

Our two snowmen are now completely buried under another foot of snow!

RELAY FOR LIFE KICK OFF PARTY!!

Last year I walked with some friends during Relay not really knowing what it was about.

This year we are co-chairing the Luminaria Committee and heading up our own team of hockey families called "Team Misconduct" :)

I love being a part of this.

Caleb wins the Regional Tournament giving him an invitation to State!

And gets his story in the paper :)

West Valley JV Hockey wraps up as well. 

Their team had an undefeated season.

The Varsity didn't do so hot!

Caleb was voted by his team as "JV Top Forward"

Way to go, Bub!!

Emily earns a place on Honor Roll again for 2nd quarter.

This time with straight A's

Her's is on top. 

Sorry it's so dark. 

We couldn't find the lights!

Emily lost her old phone :(

 Fortunately, mom was ready for an upgrade so Emily used it. 

She got an iphone 4s for $.99 - AWESOME!

Now don't lose this one!

Wanted to make a pineapple upside-down cake, but the oven was broken.

Soooo... a fruit tray was created! :)

Thanks Misty - LOVE these!!!

Caleb says thank you everyone for all the wonderful gifts!

Emily, too!

Hello Family!
