Getting ahead for Christmas next year...

This year I received a lot of really cute Christmas newsletters from families. I have always wanted to do one, but find that Christmas gets so busy I never have time. So I told my kids this year that we were going to do our family Christmas newsletter at the beginning of the year and it was their responsiblity to make everything in the newsletter happen.


A few things I am going to add...

Coty - came in 10th place at the Boston and met all his favorite Kenyan running heros. Which is a coincidence, because he got his mission call and went to Kenya.



Courtney did really well at her recital this year. In fact she not only player her piece to perfection, but she also did it upside down and backwards. This brought the attention of William Joseph who she is now touring with.



After Sidney nearly got bucked off a horse last summer, she decided that this was her opportunity to face her fears. So she started riding Grandpa's horses in her free time and found out she was actually pretty good. This lead to barrel racing in which she competed for several first places.... uhmmm nationally, yeah, lets go with nationally.

Still pondering what great feats Mark and I will be accomplishing, so stay tuned.

Boy, I forgot how much I like blogging, or least having a cheap laugh.
