Yes, We Are Still Alive!

It has been so long since I've posted anything. I guess since we came home from Saipan I haven't felt like there has been anything exciting to say. But, since it's a new year I've decided to get better at posting new stuff. Hopefully, there will be interesting things now and then!

We had a wonderful time over the holidays. Everyone was home, except for Alan, of course. Alan is doing great on his mission! He is in Enumclaw, a town just at the base of Mt. Ranier and from the pictures he has sent, it looks beautiful! He is having lots of succes and really seems to love it there.

Stephen was home from Ohio for a couple of weeks. Aaron stayed here at home over the break and Jeanette was here for a few days. The house just comes alive when everyone is home! Mike, Emily, and Andrew are now officially British. They left last week, headed for Aberdeen, Scotland for two years while Mike goes to graduate school. I miss them terribly but I know this is the right thing for them. Thank goodness for 'Skype' so my little Andrew doesn't forget me! I went and bought some picture books today so I can read to him when they call!!

Heather made the team for Winter Color Guard and is loving it. There first show will be the end of January and I am anxious to watch the show!

J.Ward and I are continuing on with work, church etc. We are hoping to make a trip over to Scotland just as soon as we can!

Well, that's about it for now. I'll try to post some pictures soon!
