We took a quick trip to Mt. Tamalpais. The views were amazing. The kids loved walking around and exploring. We came upon a very large outdoor theater made of stone. I would love to watch a production there one day.

This year, Maren & Wells are in a Junior Kindergarten program which they enjoy. Is there any detective in you? See if you can figure out which ones they are.

This year Jon caught his first deer. His uncle Terry and aunt Judy gave him a mounting kit for Christmas. Here is the final result.
Sidney's Words of Advice
Yesterday I went and got blonder highlights in my hair. Today I asked Sidney, "Sidney, how do you like my hair?" Her reply was this. "You need to be you. It doesn't matter what your hair looks like. It just matters who you are inside. You don't need to be pretty or anything, because you look nice the way you are. You just need to be you." I guess we all can learn from Sid's words of advice.

Isom & Hudson Kids With Santa
During our trip to Las Vegas we decided to visit the Neiman Marcus department store. The Santa at Neiman Marcus was so great that instead of making us stand in line, he sought us out and told us to come and get pictures with him. When has that ever happened?

Dog Mushing
My Uncle Jonathan and cousin Val took us on a dog mushing adventure. In order to get the dogs to go you yell "hike", stop is "woah", "gee" is right, "haw" is left.
Ice Fishing in Alaska
When we visit my family for Christmas in Alaska we often go ice fishing. Last time we didn't get very many fish. This year was great. We caught 22 fish and took turns taking hot chocolate breaks in the warm car. Maren caught the largest fish, Wells was the best fishing hole scooper. Sidney caught her fair share while Dean stayed in the car almost the entire time.Monday, January 12, 2009
Sidney & Paige's Baptism
Sidney and Paige were able to be baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints on Nov. 30, 2008 in Henderson, Nevada by their dads. What a special day.
180/360 Wonders
I believe getting a good family photo is somewhat of a minor miracle. During Thanksgiving in Las Vegas my friend Kim (miracle maker that she is) captured us in what has been our best family photo yet. Thank you Kim!

Tournament of Kings at the Excalibur
This year while in Vegas we took the kids to the Tournament of Kings. What a dangerous job!
Before Mystère
This year for Sidney and Paige's birthdays we went to Cirque du Soleil's Mystère which shows in Las Vegas at Treasure Island. Sidney's cousin Paige was born 9 days before her and the two of them love to celebrate their birthdays together.
