Family Pictures 2008


On November 28, 2008, we went to Lake Las Vegas to take our family pictures. We had Stephanie, Steven, Matthew, Kayla, Jeremiah, Quinn, Heather, Rykker, Braxton, Brad and me all dressed to match! We took some great pictures and I picked the one above for our Christmas Card. Yes! That's right - I did a Christmas Card and letter this year! Every year I say I am going to do one and then time gets by and I don't get it done. This year I finally did it!
See the slide show for all of the pictures from that day!

The Many Faces of Kooky Kayla!

 

THESE PICTURES WERE ALL TAKEN ON THANKSGIVING 2008!

Thanksgiving 2008

This year we celebrated Thanksgiving at my Mom's house.
It was a small gathering. We were glad that Aunt Patty could come. Steven came home for Thanksgiving too. We had a nice quite day with good food and good people. Phil & Tracey, Kenny & Kerry and all of my kids were there.

It was a fun day.

Happy Thanksgiving all!

CHS Fall Choir Concert - November 5, 2008


This year the Fall Choir Concert at Chaparral High School was a little later than usual but very well done. I thought all of the choirs did a very good job. Ms. Gardner should be very proud of how well it went. I know the kids all miss Ms. Borovicka, but Ms. Gardner is working hard to make a great program this year. We will be watching for more great things to come!

There are pictures of all of the choirs and a picture of Kayla and her friend Casey, Kayla with Grandma, Kayla with Jeremiah and Stephanie and Ms. Gardner as well. Of course, I did not end up in any pictures because I was the photographer and forgot to have someone snap my picture too!

Matt's Day at the Temple - November 8, 2008


On Saturday, November 8, 2008, Matt went to the Temple for the first time. Many were there to be with him. Bishop Andersen and Sister Andersen, Craig and Vonnie Call, Melissa, Jessica and Roger Elmer, and, of course, Stephanie, Jeremiah, Brad and I. It was a great day. After Matt's session we were able to go down to the atrium and take pictures while we were still dressed in white. It was the first time I had heard of being able to do this. Matt took the opportunity to go the Temple several times more before he reported to the MTC. It was a wonderful feeling to be able to be there with him. We are very proud of him and the decision he has made to go on a mission.
