Thoughts by Morgan

So Morgan came home from church today and says " I am sooo excited that Anson was baptized to wash away all his sins and bad things." then a pause ....... "it's great to be eight!"

Anson's baptism

Another special day has come and gone in Anson's life. Feb. 6 2010 he was baptized by his father. He has been waiting for this day and when it finally came he got a little nervous but all turned out well. It was a great day!

Thanks to all my family who came to support us. We are missing Jeff and Jodi's family because they woke up sick. Missed you guys, and of course all our family out of state

Grandma and Grandpa Wilson game Anson his first set of scriptures with his name on them!!

A whole new look!

Yeah! I know 2 posts in one day. Go me. We finally got our new sectional delivered after about 3 weeks of waiting. (Lucy had to be de clawed first) We gave away our old couches and sold the lovely blue chair on KSL and got this.......... Now we can all sit on the same couch!

the day has come...

I was laughing when I took this foto but I also felt so sorry for her. Lucy got fixed and de-clawed at the same time! She now wears the cone of shame and it's funny cause she cant hear the best with it on so she is really easy to scar. They shaved her belly and she is dying to clean herself but can't reach. Poor kitty.

8 years old

I really can't believe that my little boy has turned 8 already! The thought puts me in a bit of a panic, wondering if I have taught him enough and is he ready to be accountable when he is baptized next month. Anyway, this birthday is a special one in more ways than one, not only does he get baptized but he has started cub scouts and is sooo excited to finally be in there with his friends.

Also this is the first year he gets a "friend" birthday party. So we took 5 extra boys plus our crew and went bowling. They had a great time. The bowling alley gave him a real bowling pin that says "happy birthday Anson" and all the kids signed it. We had pizza, cake and ice cream.

And this lovely cake was my attempt to make a lego cake! Awsome!

Christmas 2009

We had a great Christmas this year. Santa sent the kids an e-mail video that was awesome!
I love to see them get sooo excited that they are going to explode! It's my favorite thing.

Aaron got his new favorite movie

Mitch got some new cars

Morg and her new scooter and dress up

Anson and I spent most of the day putting together his new lego sets!
We spent the afternoon at Grandma's house with the rest of our family for Christmas dinner and gift exchange. The only thing that was missing was Matt and Lindy's family who could not come at the last minuet, but they were in our thoughts and prayers.

Gingerbread houses 09

This was a great night of Christmas creations! I decided this year not to buy the kit but to just make up my own and it was much better with graham crackers. The kids had a great time

Morgan's did keep caving in

The frosting was awesome and the kids thought it was funny to use it to stick what they could on their faces.

Mitchell called his house "Maggie's dog house"

Can't wait till next year. Merry Christmas!

It's been a while...

I really enjoy doing a good fun crafty project. I want to thank my sister in law, Jodi for showing me this idea with a wire coat hanger and some bulbs from the dollar store! I love it. Good times
