Major Catch Up.....

One of our New Year's resolution is to keep this thing going more regularly. So here is the the catch up.....

Halloween

Ben's Birthday

Boss,
We love you so much and can not believe our baby boy is 3! You are such an integral part of our family. You make us all smile with  your large motor-skills of hugging and loving everyone.

Thanksgiving and Max's Farewell
After Ben's birthday we drove to Salt Lake to see Max off on his mission to Accra, Ghana and spend Thanksgiving with both of our families. It was great to spend some time with everyone before he left. We really missed Gatete and as always felt like we did not have enough time to spend with everyone.

Christmas

New Years

BOSS

Big Ben has been a trooper. Since school started for Eva, Grace and Tanner he has pretty much lived in the car. Between school, seminary, soccer practice, soccer games, and errands he has been awesome and mom's helper. We decided to do his favorite thing this weekend, hang out by the tracks and he had such a good time seeing the steamies and diesel engines. The video below captures just how excited and in love with trains he is. While trains are his favorite riding bikes and playing soccer/basketball/football are close second. He is so sweet to his siblings and has such a special bond with each of them, especially Eva.
