It's Christmas time once again at our house. We had a very nice and somewhat relaxed Thanksgiving in Heber City. We just went up for the afternoon and then came back home after stuffing our faces because I had to work at the hospital for a few hours that night, which isn't all bad, holiday pay and all. The girls begged and begged to set the Christmas tree and so Brad and I obliged and our house is decorated and looks quite festive!


Life has been somewhat the same over the last little while. I got notice from SLCC the end of October that I can start in the nursing program in January so I have been trying to figure out babysitters, and how to pay for it all, and schedules and doing all the requirements to get ready. I am super excited to start but it is going to be a tough 4 semesters!

Brad finished up work at the Park City Hospital and was on the Huntsman center addition until the mountain caved in where they were building so he was moved to the new building the are finishing up at the Research Park at the U until they decide how to proceed at the Huntsman Center. So it is nice to be able to save a few miles on the car now and the job he is on was taken over by Okland from another contractor that went belly up and so it is very far behind and was suppose to be done next week so needless to say they are working their butts off to finish and putting in 50-60 hours or more a week!

Emma finished her first quarter of first grade and did exceptionally well! She is one smart kid! She is reading on about a 4th grade level and just wizzes through all her things they do in class, and Mrs. Chandler had all praises for her, she loves her! She is quite the social butterfly as always and loves to make friends with everyone. She tells me everyday about her "new friend" she made that day. She is one in a million that one!

Maycee loves, loves preschool! She loves Miss Cynthia and she is making new friends too. She hasn't had anymore asthma attacks that have required hospital time, but you can tell the difference in her breathing on bad air days, it's what we get for living where we do! It's no fun for her either, she doesn't like to play outside on those days because it's harder for her to breath. It now makes me think twice about all this environmental conservation stuff. But she seems to be responding well to her treatments and that is great, ER trips are expensive!

Wyatt is growing up so fast! He is almost six months old! He is quite the stud and smiles and laughs for perfect strangers, and they melt right there in the store I tell ya. It takes me twice the time to go grocery shopping now because everyone has to make him smile more than once if they get him started, it's very addicting! He is a great baby and I will never know what I did to get such a great boy!


That's about it for now. We hope you all have a very wonderful and safe holiday season! Merry Christmas!
