Jarom

Jarom has been on my mind lately...
Recently he got the below award at school! He was so excited and we were so proud of him! Last week he did his first science project for school. He studied and learned a lot about horses and then took a container and made a replica of a horse habitat. He had so much fun doing it and his class mates loved his project! Today I got to go to Jarom's school and have lunch with him. I love him... every day he is so funny when I drop him off at school he still blows kisses and waves at the same time and yells love you mom. I dread the day when he is too old to do that. In his prayers he has a cute line he always says... "Bless mom that she will make good food like she always does." He is so good about complimenting and thanking me for all I do for him. A funny quirk he did... a couple months back... I was hurrying and getting the kids in the car to take Jarom to school. I told them all to hurry. As I was driving the 2 miles to school I was doubling checking with Jarom that he had all he needed... he responded and said he didn't have his shoes! I about died laughing. So he wouldn't be late I told him to run into his classroom and I would go home and get his shoes and bring them to him. (He hasn't forgot his shoes since.) He really is a great kid! School doesn't necessarily come easy for him but he is always trying his hardest. We are proud of Jarom and who is becoming.


A & K Holiday Party

Korey and I enjoyed going to his company Holiday party in Dec. It was a nice night out and yummy food! Below is the company newsletter. (Our picture is the top left).

Happy New Year! 2009

We ended 2008 quite at our house. Something about having kids I just enjoy a slower pace, especially at night. So we were all asleep by 11PM. The kids had a fun evening wearing party hats & eating ice cream! (Jarom did lose a tooth). We took a couple pictures just for fun! I`m ready to see what 2009 has to offer us! We are definitely still enjoying being in our home. The boys will continue to learn and grow. Jarom is excited to get baptised this year. Sariah will continue to be our joy - she makes us laugh and smile a 1000 times a day. She is sure changing and growing every day! We are excited that this Sunday she starts nursery at church! A day we have waited for. She is such a busy girl! Korey will be adapting more to his new position and "office" type job at work. I have lots of goals and things I hope to accomplish this year. I hope you all have a great new Year!

Girls Night!

Most of my sisters were able to attend a girls night at my house... We had a great time! Some I got pictures of. Amber (my sister in-law) - Hannah (& her 2 week old baby) - Rebecah - Rachael - Esther & Naomi were there (We missed Sarah and my sister in-law Jessica)
















Christmas afternoon of sledding..

The boys and Sariah had a great time sledding - with Korey and two of my sisters Naomi and Esther (as well as her boyfriend Lonnie). Boy was it cold! I think abotu 12 degrees!







Family over for Christmas...

A few pictures... of the many... Christmas morning I had about 28 family members over for brunch and gifts. All of my siblings were here my 6 sisters and 2 brothers and their families... and my mom. We all had a good time.



Christmas Morning!

Sunday Before Christmas....

Hard to get a good picture - always someone who doesn't want their picture taken. But I think I got pretty cute kiddos! Have a Merry Christmas!


Richins Christmas Party

Dec 20th we all went to Coalville for the Richins Christmas party. We enjoyed seeing family we mostly see once a year and the kids definitly enjoyed Santa - even Sariah!





Random Cute pics around the tree...

Okay the 1st year we have had a tree... (we have always been gone at Christmas time and visitng family) so fun to finally have a tree. We bought an inexpencive one... good thing because Saraih has pulled it over several times the poor tree.




Gotta do what you gotta do when you are hungry!
