Suprise!

Well I had a toothache, so I went to the dentist thinking he would give me an antibodic to get rid of the infection. Instead he pulled two teeth. Not the kind of suprise I like. So now my mouth is sore and I can't eat anything at my brother's house tomorrow morning for our family christmas get together. *sigh* Oh well as soon as it heals I will feel better so that is good. And also as always Heavenly Father was watching out for me. I never would have gone if I had known that this is what would happen. I am terrified of the dentist. (stupid anxeity) But this way I had no choose which for me is better. It is a happy feeling knowing how much He watches out and helps me. I also want to thank Vicki for being there for me. I needed someone and you were just the right person. I love you!

Anyway, ramble done. Merry Christmas everyone!

Jingle Belle

We got our puppy yesterday. She is a 6 week old pure blood german shepard. And she is pretty. They kids wanted to call her Jingle (being christmas and all) Mom and I wanted to call her Belle. So you can see how her name came to be. :D Her are some pictures of our new baby girl.

Here is a somewhat full veiw of her. It is hard to get any shots of her while she is chasing the kids up and down the hall. lol

Here is her pretty face.

How sweet is this?

So cute!

My mom posted this. I thought it was SO cute. Go have a look.

Tricia and Daddy

Hooray!!

Paige is offically potty trained!! Just had to share our excitement. :D

Let it Snow....LOT!!!

Ok so it was only alot for us desert rats. But it was really coming down in Walkers Pass when we went up after the kids got out of school.


There was snow on the mountains when we got up this morning, so right after school Trent, the kids and I along with Torri her kids and Tevan headed up to Walker Pass to play for a bit. It started snowing alittle right after we got there. After about 45 mins it was really coming down, so we waited for a snow plow and headed home. It was a short trip but I think everyone had fun.

This is Rees. Just giving you an idea of how much it was snow there at the end.

The kids had a great time


Now we hope that some of that snow makes it down here to our valley!!

Boy Christmas Program

This last Friday was the Christmas program at Faller. The boys did great and had lots of fun. Caden's class sang Ring, Ring the Bells and Jingle Bells. Rees' class sang Santa Claus is coming to town. It was hard to get a good picture of them but we got a video. So that will be fun to watch.

Gather around the christmas tree!

We decorated our tree yesterday. It was fun! Here are some pictures.

The kids were "helping". With four of them it was hard to tell if it was helpful or not.
