It is that time of year again; the time to reflect on the last 12 months and to look ahead to the next 12. I can hardly believe that 2010 is coming to an end. It has been a good year for us and I hope the same for you.
Mitch is still working part-time as a courier for FedEx as he finishes up his Business Degree at BYU-I. This past semester has been his toughest yet as he has had to help run a business on campus, working at least 4 hours a week there, completing all of his other school assignments and working between 20-25 hours a week at FedEx. But he is such a hard worker and hasn’t complained (much). He only has one more year of school and he is counting down the days. He is currently serving as 2nd Counselor in the Sunday School Presidency in our ward. In his spare time, if he has any, he still enjoys watching a movie or playing video games and, of course, spending time with me and the kids.
Stacie quit her job at State Farm Insurance in April and is thoroughly enjoying being a stay-at-home mom, the exhaustion and all. She recently started her own business as an Independent Distributor for Premier Designs Jewelry which she absolutely loves. She has had the opportunity to meet lifelong friends and is having a ton of fun. She currently serves as the Primary Secretary in her ward which is the best calling ever! In her spare time, she enjoys reading.
Michael just turned 3 and has more energy than anyone I know. He is such a funny little boy and keeps us laughing all day. He, just like his Dad, loves watching movies, his favorite being Toy Story 3, which he watches at least once, sometimes twice, a day. He has a big imagination and I love to just sit and watch him play. His favorite food is chicken nuggets and sometimes he eats them for breakfast, lunch and dinner. He is a great big brother and loves to play with Kelli. He can make her laugh louder than anyone else. He is so excited to go to Primary in a couple of weeks and loves to sing “Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam”.
Kelli joined our family in May. I can’t believe that she is 7 months already! She is such a sweet baby. She loves to jump, play with her toes and “eat” anything she can get her hands on. She just started crawling and loves being able to explore the house. She adores Michael and just sits and watches him. She loves to play “Peek-a-boo” and loves to be tickled. Her laugh is so contagious.
We are so grateful for all of our many blessings. We are so grateful for our Savior, and for this season that we get to celebrate Him! We are grateful for each of you and love you so much. We hope you have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
You guys sound like you are doing great! What we wouldn't give to be able to come home for a visit this winter to see you all! We are coming up in June, towards the end of it, so we would love to see you!!
