"Mommy this is awsome."

Kira asked me if there was mail for her.
I handed Kira the JoAnn's ad to look at.

When she was all done with it she brought it back to me
and she said, "Mommy this is awsome." I started
to laugh because Kira has been saying some of the
funniest things lately. Kira and I were reading books
before she went to bed and Alyssa wanted our book so
I asked Kira to get Alyssa her own book. Kira put a book
infront of Alyssa and said, "Enjoy."

Happy Anniversary!!!

You've changed my life and helped me see
How wonderful you are to me -
You've changed my life and I hope you know
that I love you more than words can show!

Happy New Year!!

We finally got our belated christmas
present together. Our playset didn't
make it to our home before Christmas
so we are enjoying it in 2009.

Nate, my dad, and my brother Kevin

had so much fun putting our playset

together for New Years Day. It took

them from 8 am to about 3pm. The

girls love it. Thank you Grandma

and Grandpa Gibson for the

Christmas money.

Merry Christmas!!

We spent Christmas Eve afternoon with
Grandma and Grandpa Beck. Christmas Eve
night we spent with Grandma and Grandpa
Gibson.

We sure enjoyed watching Kira and Alyssa
open their presents from Uncle Kevin and
Grandma and Grandpa Beck.


Kira opened up Cinderalla light up glass slippers
from Grandma and Grandpa.



Alyssa enjoyed sitting on her daddy's lap to
open her christmas gift which was an outfit.


One of Kira's favorite gifts was a rock star
outfit.



Alyssa got a little people farm and loved it.
Daddy sure did a good job being Santa this year.

We had a good Christmas and we hope
that 2009 will be another great year for us.
We sure enjoyed the newsletters and cards that
we got from friends and family.

Santa Came to Town!!

Santa came to our neighborhood!!!

Kira got to take pictures with Santa Clause

down the street from our home.

Rebeca Scanlon from our ward and Kira

Each year Santa and his reindeer's, policemen,

fireman, a snowman, and a Fire dog drive

through San Bernardino neighborhoods to wish

the boys and girls a Merry Christmas.

Alyssa's birthday present!!

The Farmer says & Buddy by Fisher Price
From Costco. It has been so fun to see
Alyssa push the buttons and to see her
get excited to watch the Farmer say.

Thank you Grandma and Grandpa Beck for the

money you gave to Alyssa for her birthday.

She really is enjoying her new toys.

Happy 1st Birthday Alyssa!!

Alyssa's one year old birthday cake.

Grandma, Grandpa, Kevin, Arlen, Kira, Alyssa and I
celebrated Alyssa and Uncle Arlen's birthday at

Grandma and Grandpa Beck's house.

Everyone enjoyed watching Alyssa dig into her

piece of the cake.

I thought Alyssa was going to have cake

everywhere. ALyssa really only had cake on

her hands and face.


Alyssa sure enjoyed digging into the cake with

a fork.

It was so fun visit with my family for Alyssa's

birthday. I sure enjoy doing things with my family.

They are always so kind and thoughtful.

Nate had to fly to Arkansas on a business trip the

day of Alyssa's birthday so he was not home to

celebrate with our family.
