Whew! The Season is almost over



Well, chalk one more beautiful Christmas season over and we are looking forward to a new year.
Oh how we do love Christmas at our home and even all the hulabaloo that goes along with it. The shopping, the parties, the cooking, the fun, finding the right presents, the snow, riding the Polar Express, seeing Santa Claus, the family getting together, even getting a family picture and all that wonderful laughter. But we especially love those little eyes that just light up, or the new little words, like "Ho, ho, ho" from the twins. Or maybe it is the cry of delight when Makayla saw a package wrapped in pink princess paper. They were the very best, "just beauty", as grandpa says. Grandchildren really do put the icing on the cake and the cherry up there to boot, too!
The new year is just days away and I can hardly wait to see what is in store for
us next year. This old 2007 year has been pretty wonderful to our family.

Hey guys! It's been a very long time since we have talked or seen you! it looks like you had a great holliday season. Rick and I are in Rexburg finishing up this last semester of school and then we are off to Texas. Rick got a full time job offer with Texas instruments as a software engineer after his internship there this summer. We really had a great time while we were there. And to be honest as much as I'm going to miss being out west...I'm so ready for warmer weather! This cold up here is driving me nuts...and the snow!!! We seriously have almost 3 feet of snow in our front yard! It's crazy. Well we have a blog and would love to ad you to it. It is set to private so if you email me from the email that is attached to your blog I can add you. We keep up with that pretty good and that way we can keep in contact much better! Hope all is going well for you. We just love you guys and miss you all tons!
-Rick and Liz- :)
