Ok people I am finally updating our blog. We had a great Christmas and a Happy New year. The kids got alot of stuff for Christmas, but when we were all done opening presents Timmy took a look under the tree and said " hey where is my Xbox." So I guess Santa goofed. Anyway it was fun having a new member of the family for Christmas. Issybelle was fun to watch although she was more interested in the wrapping paper then the presents although she does enjoy the presents. Mackey had a great 8th birthday, and a wonderful baptism thanks to all that came. I can't believe he is 8 and is in scouts and everything, he is loving it. Timothy is doing great, he is having so much fun being in 1st grade. He is getting to be a pretty good reader but we need to work on his writing skills sometimes you can't even tell what he has written. Allyssa is keeping us busy she is on student council this year and so has meetings every other Wednesday. She also has Fun and Fitness Club, and Piano, along with Activity days and her many social activities she likes to do with her friends it seems like I am forever running her places. Last week all three of the older kids went and stayed at Grandparents houses, Allyssa went with G&G Smith and Britney and Kellie to the Uof U Gymnastics and had a blast. G&G said she never stopped talking, gee I can't imagine where she got that from. Mackey and Timmy spent the night with G&G Tomlin and got their haircut and had alot of fun. Bryan, Issybelle and I just stayed home and had a quiet night alone because Issybelle had an ear infection her first one. She is doing better now but I sure didn't get alot of sleep for about a week. Well lets see what else can I say except Ben and Katie Florida sounds really good right about now. If it snows too much more I might just have to pack my bags and come visit you. I am so sick of the snow and being stuck inside all day. Although everyday is an adventure with Issybelle you never know what new thing she is going to do. But I am tired of being inside, and I think Issy is too. Today I put her coat on and walked over to the neighbors just for a minute and she loved it she loves being outside so I can't wait till it gets warmer. I probably won't gett anything done in the spring and summer. Well I think this is getting to be a novel so I will say good bye I will post some new pictures hopefully tomarrow.
Love ya,
Wendy
