We Went up to Seattle for Nedras company Christmas Party. Had lots of fun.

I'm going to be a blogger too!
I have 500 pictures to choose from, so I'm starting with what is on the camera right now!


Cameron, Todd and I went to watch Kenzie play powder puff football. This is a cute picture but doesn't show that it was about 20 degrees and very foggy! We could hardly see each other and they hung in there for the whole game.



Kara and Nick came into town...so we pulled as many together as we could to meet Grandma Ned for her lunch at McDonald's! Pretty darn fun.














Thanksgiving 2007... was a bit of a challenge to take this picture. You can only imagine what we were going through to get everyone to stay in one place. Nick was trying pretty hard to set the camera and run back in place... this was as good as we could get, but it was pretty darn funny!



Baby Grant's 1st trip to the Christmas tree farm. Grandma Ned at her peek of happiness dragging everyone around singing "follow me, kids follow me....we're off to go and get our Christmas Tree!"
4 of the 5 grand kids having dinner...yes mac and cheese at Grandma's house on the kids table.

Happiness is wisdom and wisdom is the intelligence of all our being coming alive. If we try to make a decision with only our head, heart, or hormones, we are missing important data. Wise decisions come when we have a committee meeting of our heart, mind and intuition and the power of the Holy Ghost.

Happiness may seem illusive or fleeting, yet there is a path that we can walk that brings the delight passion and sweetness of the happiness into our lives, sweeping over us and making us feel worth the effort and trouble.

What path is this? The gospel of Jesus Christ.

Some of the barriers to happiness are pent up in grief, sorrow, anger, and jealousness. We can open ourselves to happiness but you cannot grab it, hold on to it, or force it to come.

What a wonderful wife, I love her so much . Isn't she the most beautiful thing you see?

The reason i love my wife.

Trial's

The Lord has blessed me with love and beauty here on earth. He gave me the opportunity to grow and prove my worth. For me he made the oceans and the mountains standing tall. He offers answers to our prayers, to help me through it all. My Savior eased the way for me, with hope for my success. He even suffered for my sins that I may suffered less. For these things I am thankful They uplift me and make me strong. But I am not so thankful when the paths I’ve take are wrong.Sometimes along the journey obstacles will stand in my way.My challenge is to over come without going astray.This challenge grows more difficult when I achieve a goal,defeating one great problem I just fell in a hole.Soon I can see that the trials are not ever going to end,and the tasks become more difficult the further I ascend.But the challenges are just building blocks that I can use to climb,They shape a simple soul into an edifice sublime.The lord gave me adversity to make my weakness strong. In life I gain endurance on the path as I press on.My "challenges" are also gifts deserving much respect ,for they are all rewards that the Lord gives to his elect.

Fishing

What a fun day we had fishing. Everyone caught a fish and played together.
