Eat Brocolli

Also check out Fairview Scouts good Cactus Kyle helped with this one as well.

Mormon Ad

Our ward Young Womens made mormon ads for the stake mormon oscar night. Each class made one and since Kim was the only Laurel that showed up this is what she did. I thought it turned out pretty cute. Good enough for the New Era. Christ is always there with us we, never have to stand alone when we stand as a witness!

Kim

I thought we better post about Kim, since the last ones were of Kyle.

Kim just finished a Trimester at school with a 3.71GPA. Two A's and Two B's. and of course all H's in citizenship. She has got all H's or Honor in citizenship every year. She is just a good kid!

These pictures are her project she did in sewing class. She made an apron, hoodie and a car emergency kit. The last picture is kim's 17th birthday. She loves to decorate her own cake. Kim really loves to sew and cook, but she hates to drive the car!!! She is getting better though. She has started driving herself to Paino lessons. WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU KIM AND EVERYTHING YOU ACCOMPLISH. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!! keep driving you are doing awesome cause I know someone who was just like her at 16.!!!

Kyle's first Snowmobile trip

Yesterday Kyle and Martin got to go on a snowmobiling trip to Beaver Creek or Franklin Basin.

They had a little too much FUN!! They came back with a lot of sore muscles.

Kyle just turned 14 so he could drive a snowmobile. He thought that was awesome. Kyle passed off his duty to god for a Deacon so a member of the Stake YM presidency takes them on a snowmobile trip as a reward. We ordained Kyle a Teacher today. I am so thankful for the church. It gives our kids many learning opportunities to learn and grow it is awesome.



Barbara gave me the opportunity to learn and grow also!! I actually drove Dad to the Salt Lake Airport and then we drove to primary childrens hospital to see Eliza, Jared's little girl. AND I SURVIVED!!! This is a major accomplishment for me I am not getting any younger so I better learn how!

Snow Fort

Kyle and his friends made this snow fort this week. We have had so much snow all week. It is really pretty cool. You can actually walk in and stand up inside. It has withstood all kinds of wind, rain and more snow. It hasn't caved in yet so we thought we better get a picture before it does. If he doesn't behave, he now will have a place to sleep or stay.

Christmas 2009

For Christmas this year, we wanted to simplify and try to make things easier, so we actually tried a new tradition. With two teenagers and one 18 year old adult, it can get pretty expensive. We did the three gifts, so it would be more meaningful and easier shopping. This is what they ended up getting:

GOLD-Something to Cherish:
Krystal got the new worldwide cookbook
Kim got a jewelery box
Kyle got a CD boombox
FRANKINCENSE-Something to amuse:
Krystal got a friendship bracelet craft kit
Kim got a Bead and ceramic craft kit
