Ashley got a new bed and dresser for Christmas, which also means she gets her own, new bedroom. She and Nate are switching places. Nathan will move to the toddler bed sharing a room with Hailey and Katie. Katie will move from the toddler bed into Ashley's spot in the queen bed, shared with Hailey. And Ashley will move out of the girls room and into what has been the nursery. Ashley is so excited and Nathan doesn't seem to mind the transition at all. We are saying goodbye to this wonderful crib that has been used by each of these beautiful babies. It is a strange thing to be leaving the stage of welcoming and caring for new babies. It is sad to say goodbye to the crib because of all that it represents and because of how quickly the time is going. I love these amazing little people so much.

A trip to Home Depot for Dad and Nate. Nate loves tools!
Hailey loves making gifts, cards and art. She is constantly using her creativity and giving nature to make others smile.

Dave is Ashley's Jr. Jazz coach. He does a great job and so does Ashley. She loves to play! She is an excellent dribbler, shooter, passer and stealer! It is so fun!
A day at the zoo for Nate, Charlie and Lydia
Our ward has a PJ primary breakfast at the beginning of each year for each class to meet their new teachers for the year. It is always fun. Nate is a sunbeam now! He has loved nursery so much. Hopefully he'll like primary too. This year he has Sister Witt and Sister Blair.
Andrew missed the primary breakfast to go to a basketball tournament in Idaho with his Mambas team. He had a great time and played great too!
Sunbeam!
We played a new game called Speak Out that is so funny!
Orthodontist appointment. Ashley and Hailey have retainers for nighttime and will get braces later this year.

Katie had a ski lesson at Brighton while I skied with Andrew, Ashley and Hailey. After her lesson we met up for one last run all together.

Our nephew Damon leaves for his mission to Seattle, Spanish Speaking on January 31st. We were able to go with him and his family as he went to the Temple for the first time. We went to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple and then for a little dinner.
On my birthday, Dave and I took Andrew, Ashley, Hailey, Liz and Will skiing while Kim watched Katie and Nate.
Then our family went to Chuck-a-Rama for lunch because the kids love it so much and a movie at night at home. It was simple and lots of fun. Can't believe I'm 38!

Katie started dance at PDC, the dance studio just a few blocks away. She is really excited and loves to dance.
Ashley loves to sleep with her cheetah stuffed animals
