WOW!

Wow! What a crazy month in a half. Well to start off, we did the Christmas thing. We went small this Christmas. My kids really didn't want a lot, so it was easy to go small. Taylor, Anna, Devin, and I went down to West Valley, to my brother's house for the afternoon. Gerald and Christopher stayed home because Christopher was sick. It was fun to spend Christmas with most of my family. Steve and his wife, Dee were unable to make it there. We ate dinner, sat around and talked, and played games. Haven't done that in a long time. It was fun.
After Christmas, was Taylor's 17th birthday! I can't believe that she is that old. It seems just like yesterday that she was a little toddler running around. She has turned into such a amazing young lady. She works hard, and is enjoying her teenage years. 
Then on to January. This year so far has been interesting, to say the least. Taylor is busy with cheer. They have games, competitions starting in February and going into March. Then she has also signed up to do Junior Miss. That is at the end of April. At the end of January we found out that Taylor's cheer coach, who also worked at the Junior High her in Preston, was arrested. Two weeks before districts for Cheer. The Cheer team has really handle everything pretty good. I am sorry for the coach. It is sad to see her go because she did such an amazing job with the girls this year. It is sad to see that she made such a huge mistake that will affect her for very long time. 
The other kids are still plugging along. Christopher wants to sign up for wrestling. Anna is starting to babysit more. And well, Devin. He is your typical four year old. What can I say about him. He keeps us very busy.
Gerald is still working for Walmart driving. I still work at the nursing home. So yes we are still busy. I wouldn't have it any other way.
Saturday, I get to go watch Taylor perform at districts. That will be fun. I always enjoy watching my kids perform. Well that is all for now. I will post pictures soon.
