And so we begin again...

Happy New Year everyone. Well once again time resets and life marches forward. If only all things would reset each new year. I have way too much stuff hanging around from 2006, that I am having a hard time getting started with 2007. For example, you may have noticed that I have not sent out my Christmas cards yet. Fear not they are coming. in fact they are sitting next to me at this moment. For some reason that I do not understand, they will not address, stamp and mail themselves. So alas, I am going to have to actually do it myself. Oh well.

We have had a pretty exciting year (and when I say year I mean December also.) so far. First Liliana Romriell was born to my brother Trent and his wife Cinthya. She is so cute and you can check out pictures of her on his blog at http://trentandcinthya.blogspot.com/. I will link on the side there. Also Austin turned three which has been very exciting. This Sunday will be his first time in Primary. So wish him luck in sitting still for two hours. I will post birthday pictures asap, but a sad thing happened, which is my camera has broken. I am very depressed about the whole thing, especially since it is my fault for dropping it. So you can shed a tear for me, or even better send me money to fix it! :-) So if you happen to recognize the pictures below, that is because I stole them from various family blog spots. Enjoy!


For New Years we went to my parents house and built a huge bonfire, roasted hot dogs, and marshmallows and told stories. When I say told stories, I mean listened to my Dad tell stories about what a delinquent he was growing up. All my favorites. I never realized how boring I am.


My Favorite part about this new year was the fact that for the first time in well over two years, my WHOLE, family was together again. So we had to take a picture to commemorate the moment. We also took a picture of all the grandkids from small, medium to large. Just look at how happy Logan was about that idea.

As you can see he is thinking about maybe he doesn't care for Uncle Russell, or maybe it's cousins, or maybe he is just realizing that he is surrounded by girls. True boy through and through.

Logan has now decided that he is more than a little sad, he is just downright angry about the whole situation. "Whoever invented stupid new years anyway!" he says.

Sorry to hear about your camera. I know exactly what you mean about the Christmas cards though, we didn't send out any of our either. Oh well maybe next year. I think that it is so neat that your whole family was able to attend New Years it is perfect for the saying the more the merrier.

Hey, Tannie, I just came back to see what was new on your blog site and enjoyed the pictures, comments and commentary on loneliness. I have to say I agree with you. The only problem with calling a person instead of emailing is that it is more effort to have a two way, continuous conversation.
Love,
Syl
