Our New Year so far!


These last couple weeks have been the busiest of the year! hahaha. We actually started the busy time on New Year's Eve....Aaron's 8th birthday!! Happy Birthday Aaron!! He got some fun presents---an engine to put together with Dad, a rip stick, his very own scriptures, Legos.....and more. :)  He wanted to go to work with Dad for his birthday, so he and Ashton helped out Adam for a while. FUN!


On the 2nd, Preston had a big day. It was surgery time for Preston.....Tubes in his ears, tonsils and adenoids out. I've actually been looking forward to this. Is that terrible? I really believe he will be so much healthier and his ears hopefully will cause him less trouble. He had a rough couple of days, but he is back to mostly normal now (just no chips!) And he's been sleeping better!!!!! 



On the 5th, Aaron was baptized!! We belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. We are so proud of Aaron and his choice to be baptized. Doesn't he look so handsome in his new suit?! 



We had lots of family here to support him, and I feel bad for not taking more pictures! But I am so grateful to those that could make it out to support Aaron.

On the 8th, we had another birthday!! Livia turned 4!!! Where has the time gone?! She is such a GIRL! She wore a puffy sleeved, twirly dress for her birthday, and that is totally her. 
Adam and I got her a microphone for her birthday, and in hind sight---I think we overlooked the fact that a microphone amplifies a voice. It's been pretty loud around here!! (Praying for dead batteries soon!!) 







Happy Birthday Livia!



Then yesterday- the 12th we had our first Pine Wood Derby for Scouts! Now that Aaron's 8 he gets to go to Scouts. (A whole new adventure for us!)
Check out this car that Adam (I mean Aaron) made!




That was our busy couple of weeks so far this year! We are looking forward to a wonderful 2013!!!!
Happy New Year everyone!
