CHRISTMAS 2009

Ok, 4 in the morning is a bit too much. Yes, that is when Tyler, Kole, and Dani came bounding in. My response, "Christmas is not at 4, 5 maybe!!!) So, they went and watched a movie downstairs for an hour, but that was it. So yes, we let them go see what Santa brought, but no touching until we could all get in there. Joslyn was so cute, she was sitting by her new baby doll just giddy! " I love it!!" she exclaimed, with little hands wiggling and excited but not touching. How fun Christmas is with kids, even tired teenagers.


Cody got new skis and bindings along with some stuff for his truck. Nikole and Dani got Pixos, clothes, and ski stuff. Tyler got video games, clothes and snowboarding stuff. Joslyn got a doll, clothes, and a soft chair. Kirk got new 509 Aviator snowmobiling goggles and a torpedo heater for his shop. I got a big stand-up jewlery box and lots of fun things from the kids.
Some of the traditions that we have are on Christmas Eve we have shrimp and lobster, read the Christmas story from the scriptures and play games. We always get up early, call all the family, have a nice lunch and just enjoy the day. We love to think of new neighbor gifts and enjoy all of the things we get from our great friends.

Four-Wheeling and Dirt Biking in September

EAGLE SCOUT!

EAGLE SCOUT!
In August Cody earned his Eagle Scout award. He has had a lot of fun during his scouting years and finally the end arrives. For his project he did saftey kits for all of the primary children. The primary and parents were invited to listen to Sheriff Bunn talk about safety. He then fingerprinted every child and those along with a strand of hair, a picture and dna sample were placed in a baggie for the parents to keep. Cody was given the Eagle Charge by his father which was truely special. We want to thank all of the friends and family for coming to be with him on the special day. We especially thank Alan Michelson for his dedication to scouting in helping Cody and for his friendship. Cody, we are so proud of you and love you very much!

Grandma & Grandpa Kennedy

Grandma & Grandpa Kennedy
This picture was taken while we were down in Marysvale at Tanner's baptism. (Why I didn't get a picture of all the grandkids with grandma and grandpa is beyond me). My kids love their grandparents dearly and enjoy spending time with them. My parents are my heros. They are always there for me and love me unconditionally. They spoil my children--but grandma would say that is love and the kids would agree. Thank you Mom and Dad for being mine.

WE LOVE OUR SEANEE B!

WE LOVE OUR SEANEE B!
A highlight of our South Dakota trip was having Sean with us. We only get to see her maybe twice a year because we live so far apart. Sean has turned into such a beautiful young lady (we love all of the nieces and nephews!) and she has the sweetest of personalities. While in South Dakota she celebrated her 14th birthday and we snapped this special photo of her and Grandpa Bassett.

Gone But Not Forgotten

This blog is all about family, and even though Dan is not with us here he is still a very big part of this family. He will always be a big part of our hearts and we love him dearly.

Here are some pictures of us all at Bear Lake in August.
