Annual trip to McCall

Every year for my birthday, my family takes a trip to McCall. It is so beautiful there. Every year we stay in a condo, make a gingerbread house, and if there is enough snow for skiing we go. This year was Nathan's first time skiing. We were there the first day Tamarak opened for this ski season so it was free! Nathan did a great job and has absolutely no fear - a trait he got from his daddy. I love my family and the special little trips we take together. I hope they always remember to good times we have together.

Morgan's Ninth Birthday

Happy Birthday Morgan! Morgan's birthday was in December. She turned 9! I can't believe how fast time goes by. It seems like she was a baby just yesterday. We love you Morgan.

It Snowed!

When enough snow fell, Morgan and Nathan ran outside and built one of the finest looking snowmen around. It took a few hours to complete (with Dad's help).

Christmas at the Jenson's

I love Christmas! We always have a formal Christmas dinner on Christmas Eve (we pull on crackers which gives us a toy and a paper crown). Then we act out the Nativity and read the Christmas story after opening our new pajamas. On Christmas day we open our presents from each other and Santa. Andrew got a "bike" that he thought he needed to ride at all times (with or without his diaper). David commissioned a great artist to paint this pineapple picture for me. I love the pineapple because it means "hospitality". David is always so thoughtful.

High Tech Skiing

This past Christmas we spent a few days in Brigham City with David's family. There was a lot of snow so we discovered many different ways to play in it. The kids put on their skis and skied down Grandma and Grandpa Jenson's hill. Then David got on the 4-wheeler and pulled Nate on his skis.

Christmas Cuties

Please forgive me for a delay in my posts. I will change my ways and try to update regularly. I'll start with Christmas and move forward. These are my cutie pies in their new Christmas outfits.
