Baby News

I thought you would like to know that I am 36 weeks and I gain a week every Saturday. I am dialated to a 1 but barely effaced. So the baby is out of the danger zone and we are just waiting for delivery. We are not asking for anything, but if you felt like you wanted to send us something we could use Walmart cards, for diapers and other baby things.

What more can I say?

Christmas

Elwyn with Santa at our ward party. She wasn't to sure it she liked him or not, but she didn't cry. She just looked at him with big eyes. Afterwards she would not stop talking about Santa.

Tanner couldn't wait to see Santa. He sat on his lap and talked and talked.(He has a hard time talking to anyone except Moma.) The great part was Brother Thompson let him tell him al about his day and toys and everything. It was really special to Tanner.

We had a wonderful Christmas with my parents. Elwyn loves all her babies and her little pets. Tanner was very excited about the action figures and hulk gloves. They are the favorite of every kid who comes over. Sorry about no videos, I have tried everything to make them work.

Andy Graduates

Andy graduated from the fire academy in December. Now all we have to do is find a station that is hiring. They did a demonstration where they fight this fire called the Dragon. You'll have to ask Andy how hot it is. What they did was walk to the fire and back with hoses. I tried to download a video on Andy doing it but I can figure out how, sorry.

The dragon.

Andy's class. It is a terrable photo sorry but that is all I have.

Christmas Blessings

It is amazing how Heavenly Father can show you he loves you by doing little things like helping find Christmas presents for my children. So here is what happened to me: We have almost no money for Christmas and I had been wondering how we were going to get my kids gifts this year. Tanner is really into super hearos like batman and superman. Elwyn is really into playing pretend so I wanted to get her these little Mickey Mouse and Winnie the Poop figures. As a side note my sister wanted to get her daughter doll house furniture. Well I went yard saleing and the first place I went to had this 45 gallon storage bin full of ramdom toys. I really didn't want to dig through it so I left. Well the spirit told me to go back. Sad to say I ignored it all morning untill I was done yard saleing. By then I couldn't ignore it anymore so I went back. The spirt said to look into the bin. So for 30 minuets I knelt on the cold conceat with my big pregnant belly and dig. You'll never guess what I found. All the super heros I wanted to get Tanner, the Mickey mouse and Winnie the Pooh set I wanted for Elwyn. All the doll furniture for my sister. While I was digging I put together all the toys set that were in pieces in the bin. So the lady let me fill up a whole bag for $2.00!

But I am not done yet. The lady next door to this yard sale was also haveing a yard sale and she was so impressed with how good Elwyn was (I had to take her with my) That she gave here this littlest pet shop cat for free and she said I could pick any little pet shop figure I wanted the 25cents. So I got a few. I went home and told my mom this experience and she told me that my Aunt was giveing her a littlest pet shop house and That Elwyn culd have it for Christmas. (I went back and got more little pets).

So I was able to get everything I wanted for my children for Christmas for less the $5.00a all because I listened to the spirit and went back. It is so good to know that Heavenly Father loves my little family enough to help us with something as small as toys for Christmas.

Happy Halloween

Tanner and Elwyn were so excited for Halloween. Elwyn wanted to be super girl and
