THE BEST TIME EVER!!

WE HAD ONE OF THE BEST CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS EVER, I THINK ALOT OF IT HAD TO DO WITH THE FACT THAT WE GOT TOTALLY SNOWED IN, BUT WE PLAYED A LOT OF GAMES, WATCHED MOVIES, WENT SLEDDING, SAW SOME FAMILY AND FRIENDS AND JUST RELAXED. IT WAS GREAT TO HAVE MARTY HOME FOR 16 DAYS IN A ROW, I HAD SO MUCH FUN GETTING TO LAUGH WITH HIM AND ACTUALLY SLEEP WITH HIM FOR MORE THEN FOUR NIGHTS. THE KIDS DIDN'T GET A WHOLE LOT FOR CHRISTMAS, BUT THEY WERE HAPPY WITH WHAT THEY GOT AND I THINK THEY JUST ENJOYED HAVING THEIR DADDY HOME!! WE ACTUALLY SAVED SOME MONEY ENOUGH TO TAKE EVERYONE TO THE SHOW, IT IS 9.50 A TICKET HERE, WE WENT AND SAW, "BEDTIME STORIES," IT WAS GREAT. WE COOKED AND ATE SOME GREAT FOOD AND IT WAS EVEN HEALTHY FOR THE MOST PART, WE WENT UP TO THE ROBERTSON CABIN FOR A NIGHT AND THAT WAS FUN PLAYING GAMES, IT WENT BY TO FAST THOUGH!!! I DIDN'T WANT MARTY TO GO BACK TO WORK, BUT YOU ALL KNOW HOW THOSE BILLS JUST KEEP ON COMING!! WE FINISHED THE BOOK OF MORMON ON SUNDAY NIGHT, I THINK THE KIDS WERE VERY EXCITED TO READ THE PROMISE IN THE LAST BOOK, THEY ARE EXCITED TO START THE NEW TESTAMENT, THEY GOT TO CHOOSE, AND WE HAVE NEVER READ THIS PART OF THE SCRIPTURES, SO THEY ARE EXCITED TO DO THIS TOO!! I ACTUALLY DON'T EVEN HAVE TO BEG THEM, THEY REMIND ME AT TIMES!! I GUESS MY PRAYERS ARE PAYING OFF, MARTY AND ME ARE TRYING VERY HARD TO KEEP CLOSE TO OUR KIDS AND HELP THEM TO REALIZE HOW TRULY BLESSED THEY ARE!! AS FAR AS NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS GO, I DECIDED TO JUST BE THE BEST PERSON I CAN BE THIS YEAR AND ACCEPT HOW I AM, I AM WILLING TO CHANGE WHAT I CAN, BUT I AM NOT GOING TO GET STRESSED OUT ABOUT IT, IF I CAN'T. I AM ALSO WORKING ON FOOD STORAGE AND 72 HOUR KITS!! I DO NOT ROTATE MY FOOD WELL, SO I AM TRYING SOME NEW THINGS, WE WILL SEE IF IT WORKS!! WELL ENOUGH RAMBLING, LOVE YA ALL C

Hey woman, sounds like life is going good. Food storage is a pain to rotate-but what a blessing to have it. I'm going to get 72 hour kits done also...our clothes in them are outsized and the food I'm sure has no nutrition. Al is in Calif. he's been all over since Christmas. I loved being with Amanda and family, we saw some great sights and had lots of memory making. Can't wait for couples. Tell everyone hi. Love, Vic
