12-15-12 ELDER KEVIN BIRCH

 My nephew, Kevin is going on a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints on January 2nd!  He will be serving for two years in Las Vegas.  We are so happy for Kevin and know he will bless the lives of many!

He went to the temple to receive his endowment on Dec. 15th in the Seattle LDS Temple.  He was so happy!

12-1-12 OH CHRISTMAS TREE…

 This year, we decided to buy a real Christmas tree.  We went tromping around the farm and found the perfect tree!  Luckily, it wasn’t raining! :)

11-23-12 CONNIE’S 39TH BIRTHDAY

 My birthday fell on black Friday this year.  It was THE BEST!!!  Jeff and I woke up early and did a little shopping at Fred Meyer, came home and had Swedish Pancakes, got ready for the day and went to the mall.  With the magic of cell phones, everyone divided and got their Christmas shopping done.  Luckily, we had packed a lunch and enjoyed turkey sandwiches and pumpkin pie on the way home!  We came home and ate dinner and I opened my presents.

After opening presents, we went to Chipoltle for dinner, then we went to “The Forgotten Carols”  I took this picture in the lobby with my cell phone.  Jeff & Thomas were parking the car.  The play was wonderful.  I cried…

Our feast!!!  The darn turkey didn’t cook as quickly as expected-it took an extra 2 hours and the rolls were HUGE!  When we announced that the turkey was done, everyone jumped up and down for joy!  We were starved!!!  But the wait was worth it!!!

This picture makes me drool!  It was DELICIOUS!!!
