Happy 10th Birthday!

I can't believe Alyssa is already turning 10. Every New Years Day we celebrate her birthday and the holiday becomes about her. She loves it. This year was her first year not having a big birthday party and she was pretty sad about it. It is just a crazy time for us and she had just gotten together with some of her friends so we didn't really do much. We are so luck to have such a sweet girl and she is so special to us. It's really hard to believe only 6 more years until she is driving and then looking at colleges. Time goes so fast.

Best Friends Forever!

On December 26th we had Bryn and Luke Olsen and Sydney and Kylee Houghton spend the night. It was a crazy night with 8 very excited children. All these kids have grown up together since they were born. Now we have all moved away. The Olsen's and the Houghton's moved south and we moved north so we are about an hour apart. It is really sad that we don't get to see them very often but when we do everyone has a great time. Mark and I took them all sledding at the hill by our house. It was a great time!
