 Brody opened his one present on Christmas eve and he loved it!

Elf on the Shelf

We have a tradition in our house with a little elf. He can not be touched but he goes to Santa every night to tell Santa if the kids have been good! If you touch the elf he looses his magic! Here are some spots he was found around my house! He is a clever ol' elf!

Santa came to our house

Brody opened the door and was scared at first!!!! It was fun! They gave the boys a present (a new movie) and left!!! It was cute!

What is with this moving mumbo jumbo?????

YES!!!! We are moving! Here is the story. Ian a few weeks ago accepted a job offer in Salt Lake City, Utah! Very excited about the prospects we decided to accept it! Ian is going to work for a firm called Petersen and Associates. It is smack downtown. He will be an attorney there doing insurance mumbo jumbo. (I don't really know people)  We have full medical, dental and vision and he even gets a car. I am having a really hard time with it!  Pocatello has become my home and my friends have become my family! So of course I was sad! So after a week I had to get my act together and we had to get things going on the house. I couldn't really tell anyone because he hadn't told his boss. So after my "grieving" process was over I felt good about the decision. We prayed and we prayed and we prayed!!! I know it will benefit Ian and our family greatly. I am hoping I will make friends! I think I am funny and nice! :) So we put the house on the market this Wednesday and we have had two people show interest!!!! Sad but we are excited!!!!!!

Preston's 4th Grade Program!

 Preston had a little play with his class! The play was about this wolf that did not know about the holiday season so all these animals explained it to him. They talked about all of the different holidays that happen in December. Mrs. Fullerton has been a GREAT teacher! I really love her!

 How handsome!!!!

I love you Preston!
