So now that we have a new computer I will be able to update our blog more than 2 times a year! I am so excited!.... But to catch up on our going ons....
1- We had a great time having Mark's family come visit us in Rigby for a few day in August! They took us to Bear World and we took them to the Sand Dunes and Fishing! We also went to Blackfoot Fair where the kids just ooohed and aahhhed all day then on the way home they crashed after only 2 min of being in the car!
2- Jake turned 1 in September!!! Wow, my baby isn't a baby anymore (don't worry that isn't code for "I want another one")
3- October was fun to see the kids old enough to be excited about Halloween. Daniel and Jake were both cowboys! So cute! This is a picture of the kids at a trunk r treat at World's gym, my niece Lexi was Ariel the Little Mermaid!
4- November we sold our house! We had been trying to sell it for 6 months and it was officially on the market for only 2 months when we sold it. The only catch was that they wanted us to move out 2 weeks after we agreed on a price! Ahhhh! Thank goodness for all the help our families were! We had lots of help and were able to move into my Grandpa Robertson's house in Pocatello, ID until we catch up with stuff and find something more permanant. This is a video of Jake eating oatmeal by himself!
*We also went to Bear Lake for Thanksgiving with Mark's family. I had a great time relaxing, watching football, shopping and eating great food! I think I might overwhealm people sometimes with the stories I tell but Mark is good to tactfully say "enough!" So I appologize to anyone at the condo who got a full account of my life when you weren't expecting it.
5- December has brought a lot of crazy bussiness! We have been out of town every weekend and we will be gone the rest of the weekends till New Years! So much for getting to know our ward! No we feel bad but we have tons of family stuff going on and it is Christmas time!!! We will spend Christmas with my family this year in Rigby and Then New Years we will spend snowmobiling with them at a Cabin we are all going to for a few days! And somewhere in there we will go on a quick trip to SLC to see Mark's family and our new niece Maelle!!! We are so excited!
I think that about takes care of any major things going on right now other that the boys just getting older and more activing and I am getting older and less active! uhhh. I will stop coaching at the gym starting after today so I am sad but it will be nice not to drive up to Rigby twice a week.
We are so blessed to be here in my grandpa's house. He is so generous and it has helped us a ton! We are now debt free where a few months ago we were really worried about finances. I have a testimony of tithing and the blessings paying it can bring. It isn't always financial, but it is always what we need. I love the Lord and I love this time of year that is dedicated to him let us remember our blessings and family at this time of year. And let us remember that it is because of Him that we have all that we have.

What? What? Can I really believe what I am seeing?!?!?! A post!!!!
You guys are the greatest. We are so excited to see you and we are thrilled that you are doing so well.
PS I almost bought you a Twilight figurine for Christmas, but I couldn't decide between Team Jacob and Team Edward. I was swayed to the Jacob side, because he was shirtless (of course). I decided to get you something else though... Hope we can still be friends.
Nice to see a post, and cute pictures! Oh and just fyi, I love your long and detailed accounts! ;)
