Guess Who

I was cleaning out some old stuff and ran across some of my old mission stuff. This picture was went to me while I was out. I thought it would be fun to see if any of you know who drew it. (Yes I know who drew it I want to see if any of you do.)

New Car

The (David) Barlow's have joined the bandwagon and bought a Mini Van. A very nice model with roomie interior. The best part is that it's seats 7 which is soon to be our family size. Yes Mom that means we will be visiting more often. Now all we need is for Ryan and Jen to buy one and we can have Mini Van Races, or conventions. I do realize that I posted three times today but as you can see I haven't had a lot of time to post.

Close Call

Wednesday afternoon I got to work like any other day and was getting my area clean, trying to sell carpet and tile when I got a phone call from Elann telling me she was in labor. I was a little surprised because she wasn't due for another 2 months. I promptly call a friend of mine that I hoped would be home and had him go pick up Elann and the kids and meet me at the hospital. (I want to add that I didn't pick up Elann and the kids because I only have a 2 seater truck.) The hospital was great they proceeded to get Elann checked in and the started doing there best to prevent the baby from coming so soon. After 5 hours of trying they finally managed to stop the labor and released Elann so that she could go home. Thankfully Elann's parents were able to come up and take the kids to get them out of the way. We wanted to thank all of you Who Prayed for us during this scary time.

Locked in

A funny thing happened a work. I was closing one night minding my own business stocking shelves, cleaning, I was using the standing forklift putting pallets of tile up and some others down when all of the sudden the alarm went off. I put the forklift in the back and walked up front assuming that someone had just opened one of the emergency exits. I'm not that lucky however and they had all gone home. I had to go to the front door and explain myself to the 6 Sandy Policemen that were outside. I had to show ID and my lowes ID to prove that I worked there and then had to stand out side with them until one of the managers could come back and verify that I did indeed work at lowes. Overall it was an exciting experience.

Christmas Time

Unfortunately we didn't get a whole lot of good pictures on Christmas morning. The kids running around made all of the pictures blurry. but never fear I did get one good one and I'm going to take more with the kids and what they got. This one is of Ben with the tool set he got for Christmas. If you feel the need for more please read Jen's blog and think of my children's faces.

Christmas Eve

Christmas eve is always enjoyable.

The Tree, seeing the kids do the nativity,

I spoke with santa and he enjoyed the treat

In the Nativity Cenna and Uncle Scott were the two wise men. We couldn't find a third.
