Happy Birthday to Our Little Angel





What a blessing she is in our family! She's a little Mommy, a wonderful artist, so smart and talented in so many ways. From the moment she was born, she brought great peace and joy and a sense of tenderness into our family. The spirit is never far from her, it speaks to her in such a loud voice, and she always listens.
We are so proud to call her our daughter! Angelice was named well. Happy Birthday baby girl!

Photos from the show!












These are some seriously good performers. After all these years, I must say, they are better than they were the first time around.
Hope you enjoy the few pics I took. The camera was very distracting to my experience, and I could not stand it. I had to take it all in with no distractions and my own eyes.

Football Season Ends

Jacob's team finished the season with but one loss, and earned a playoff spot. The championship game was played last Saturday against the Owyhee Wolf Pack, who were undefeated. And twice as big I might add. It was FREEZING cold, and raining.



Here is the final score:

Good job Defense!

Our team finished as conference champs, and second place in the league. Here's Jake with his trophy. He said after the game: "Well, we did our best, and I am proud to be able to support my team from the sidelines. I really wished I could have played though. Next year, I will be bigger, and have more experience, so maybe I will be a starter!"

What a sport! We are so proud of how disciplined and dedicated he was this year, and look forward to doing it all again next year!


Halloween fun

Yay for Halloween! Jacob had football practice a half hour into the school carnival so he went as a football player! Here he is with his friend Jason who also went as a football player...


Angelice went as a witch, and Ben went as a knight. We are standing in line to get balloons here. Oh. Ted went as an Optician!




Another one of Angelice.

We had fun. Next year, I am going to suggest they not try to house 600 people in an elementary school sized gym. How 'bout opening some classrooms as booths, mmmkay?
