January 2017


 Yeah, Yeah, Yeah....I know I'm running a little late in my posting. Better late than never?

January! What a great, fun filled, busy month.






We began with a harvest from our own yard. Tomatoes, oranges, tangerines and clementines. We made juice, salsa and enjoyed some of the sweetest fresh fruit, it being all the sweeter coming from our own garden. Thank you Roxanne for all your hard work.

Next, a small birthday celebration for our sweetest Abby! Happy 17th Abby! You're the BEST

Then, it was time to be magically wished away to....New Orleans! Just Dad, Mom and Emma for a 3 day work trip.













This was really an amazing city. 
The graveyards were especially neat and the historical detail was beautiful.

This year we got an unusually large amount of snow un on Mt Charleston. We had to take a few hours and drive up the mountain to take a look. Of course us city folk are never quite prepared enough for the cold and the wet, but it was fun all the same.

Then, it was time to attend the annual Jane Austen Evening in Pasadena, CA
A lovely evening, as always!

And as we were preparing to leave Pasadena, Dear ol' Dad decided to go to Disneyland. So we called up the kids (still in Vegas) and Grandma Saint Sandy (in St. George) and asked if they wanted to jump in the car right then, drive up to Anaheim and join us. Of course, there was a unanimous YES!

January was a great month. Thanks everyone who helped make it so.

New Year's Goals - A Year in Review 2016

I am recommitting. Just once a month. An update on our family. That means only 12 times this year. Surely I can fit that in, right? It's a good Sunday activity, so there's no reason I can't accomplish THIS particular goal.

Let's see how well I can do a year in review to get us ever so slight'y caught up.
