Happy New Year

We hope you have all had a happy and safe New Year's celebration. Our family continues to do quite well. On New Year's Eve we travelled to Salt Lake City and went to see the Christmas lights on Temple Square. The boys really enjoyed seeing everything, but the particularly enjoyed the snow and throwing snowballs, thus our stay was not long. We also drove by the places Gail and I lived when we lied in SLC. We were glad we went. Despite it being very cold and windy, we enjoyed being at Temple Square. As you can see from below the boys had big smiles on their faces.





We spent the evening with some friends in South Jordan and then did some shopping on New Year's Day. Andy needed to get prepared for some hearings on Wednesday, so we did not stay long, but on our way home we stopped to see Gail's sister and some friends who both live in Tooele.

The rest of the week went quickly. Andy worked long hours and Gail as well at the daycare center. The boys begin school again Monday. Over the past two weeks Andy enjoyed being able to go home and see the boys at lunch. We got to spend some great time together in the afternoons.

Andy finally has his own office and spent Saturday unpacking his things and getting the office set up.

We experienced some snow over the past week, but just a couple of inches. The major storm which hit California Friday, brought us some very high winds and about 3-4 inches of snow. Nikolas has taken up snowboarding and spent a good part of Saturday playing on the hill in front of our apartments practicing his snowboarding skills.

We hope all is well with our friends and family. Until next week.

Hey Gail! It looks like you had a nice trip into SLC. I wished we lived closer to our family there. I saw your post about Matt and cub scouts. Is he already in scouts?!! WOW! Max starts next month and I am dreading it. The last thing I need it to have to drive him to church every Wednesday night(it's about 20-25 minuets away). All of our snow is melting which is sad, but we are enjoying the warmer weather for a bit!
