Christmas is for Children- Part 1

I haven't added anything for a while so I thought I would reminisce about how all the wonderful Christmases I have enjoyed.

I have been thinking about my beautiful children and just how fast they have grown, but oh my what a joy, pleasure, blessing and privilege it has been to watch theses kids grow for the past 25 years.

We have had some wonderful Christmases and although time has blurred some of the memories, I still fondly recall watching as the kids came downstairs to see what Santa left under the tree.

Christmas morning with my family reminds me of the scripture- And as they looked to behold they cast their eyes towards heaven, and they saw the heavens open, and they saw angels descending out of heaven as it were in the midst of fire; and they came down and encircled those little ones about, and they were encircled about with fire; and the angels did minister unto them.

Our Trip to Vegas

So, it was a little while back that we went on a trip to Vegas but we have so many fun pictures we wanted to share. We got the star treatment from our sweet ride to our hotel room to getting to go to a show. We got to ride around in a Mercedes in which the whole roof was a sun roof. It was pretty cool. we were able to score some tickets to the blue man group which was sooo much fun, we laughed so hard and came out of the show wrapped in toilet paper!!! We went to the wax museum and got to see a lot of celebrities including one of mom's favorites matthew mcconaughey!!! she was on cloud nine! we got serenaded by elvis, did thriller with michael jackson, judged by simon cowell, and played golf with tiger woods. we watched the gorgeous fountains at night and got some good ole shopping done!!

A letter from Elder P.

We recieved a letter from Alex last week.
He is doing so well, I'm sure that puts 'lil sis at ease and soothes some of the pain of longing.
His spanish is really good!

Little Ms. Einstein

So a few months ago , we were dreading the deadline that December brought...no not Christmas, but the dreaded Science Fair competition. Isn't it wonderful how the so called experts think that kids don't have enough to do in school so they make it mandatory that our kids enter the Science Fair. The thing that upsets me about this is that rarely is this thing a positive experience for the kids. It just adds to the stress that parents have to help their kids get through another school year. I understand why they do this, but the kids tend to struggle with their other classes while they try to scrape a project together.

Now I'll step off my soap box and give props to Kelsey. Kelsey was one of 2 (I believe) students from West Hills middle school to have their project selected for the State competition at BYU.

Her project involved studying how a person's pulse and blood pressure changed when shown a photo of a prominent person. She chose Hilary Clinton, Osama Bin Laden, George Bush and Barak Obama as the variables.

Kelsey won the originality award for her project. Not bad for an 8th grader!

Good job Kelsey!
