JORDAN, MANDY & MIKAH

This is Jordan and Mandy's Christmas card picture.
What a cute family! To see more of what Jordan and Mandy are doing scroll down to the August 31 post.

JOSH and CARI

Josh and Cari live in San Antonio. They have had a busy year with their work, home remodeling, church callings and friends. Once when I called them they were babysitting for a large family so the parents could have some time together. They are such good and thoughtful people! They came out to Anna's wedding, and we are going to visit them for Christmas. We are so excited to spend some time together.

MIKAH

This is Mikah at 5 months old...isn't he adorable! (Another picture stolen from Jordan and Mandy's blog)

Alyssa, Joseph and Caroline

Alyssa just finished a great volleyball season. She had such a good time that instead of playing basketball, she's going to be playing on a club volleyball team. She is heard saying, "I love volleyball!" on a regular basis. She also loves her brother and sister as you can see from the pictures!

Joseph keeps busy with his college classes. He's a sophomore at Canyon View High School, but goes to SUU for half the day. He's doing well and loves (well likes) the challenge. Joseph loves being outside and exploring. It snowed about 4 inches last week and he rolled all the snow off the grass in the backyard, loaded it into a huge pile and then dug out a snow cave. Alyssa went in it with him and said it was pretty warm. Last winter he built an ingloo. He said he was going to keep doing things like this until he has a true Klondike experience. Dwight said he will take him to the mountains this winter and spend the night with him in a snow cave. Joseph can't wait.

Caroline just sang her first solo. She sang a song called The Light Within at her Young Women in Excellence program. She did a great job! She will be singing Mary Did You Know as a solo at her school choir concert in December. She loves singing as much as Alyssa loves volleyball!
