BIrthday Celebrations!

 HMMM... What should I wish for?

Chelsea and her friend Sky came to spend the day with Trent!

Thats a whole lot of candles for my Baby to have on his cake!

OK... So I'm not so great at getting the pics in order, I am over 40! Chelsea's birthday actually came first on the 3rd of February.... 20 years old!

Wishing for... ROME perhaps?

February is the month of Chelsea and Trent. Chelsea turned 20 and Trent the big 18!

Winter Wonderland!

We spent the afternoon hiking along the river with Sadie. It was a beautiful... and very brisk day! The ice crystals were hanging onto the trees and logs and rocks, but the sky was a brilliant blue! Sadie loved running though the snow, creeping up on unsuspecting fishermen... and what a bonus if they had a dog! All in all... not a bad way to spend a Saturday afternoon!

Family Christmas 2008

This is the downstairs Christmas Tree located in the family room. This is the area where we open gifts between family members.

What a beautiful woman! Miss Julie is holding the new entry piece that we received from Dave and Roger. It will be a nice way to greet friends and family.

So, is this our BYU girl ? It is ! She has just discovered that Santa delivered the new IPod! It will hold all the songs she can listen too.

This is Roman finding a seat on Trent's new Xbox.

Nicole and Zach discovering the the Magic of Christmas! Although it is 15 degrees in Utah they are not disappointed with the White Christmas and the rural enviornment.

Chelsea has something to cuddle with....a new BYU quilt created by Mom.

A Trent picture history displayed on a beautiful quilt. Miss Julie was the architect and builder of this masterpiece.

The IHome....for the IPod all at OUR Home !

Trent and McKenna in a Christmas exchange.

When Nicole is home there are always smiling, jokes and much laughter.

Lindy our new daughter in law. Is she gorgeous or what ?

Braving the snow, cold and side seat driving (no offense meant) Tyler takes some down time before heading back on the snowy roads.

Santa is not the only one getting a hug !
