Today is Laun and I’s 8th wedding anniversary! We were super romantic…went to the library, Sams Club for new car tires and then watched a movie. I guess that is as romantic as it gets when you are about to move and have a baby in a couple weeks. And to top it all off I’m sick. I love my Laun. Thanks for 8 great years.

welcome home
We got home to Idaho tonight and this is how we found our house-covered in snow. I’ll have to take more pictures tomorrow when I am done thawing out.

I love my brother
Andrew came to Show Low to get a rubbing of Cooper’s headstone. He is making something with it. I just love my brother. I like that he and Cooper are both the 3rd boys in their family’s.

Christmas day
We spent Christmas with the Larsen family. John and Jennette have been so good to us. They have played Santa Clause this year for our family. I am so grateful for them and their kindness.
The kids waiting to go downstairs…
The boys are such fun ages for Christmas. They got what they asked for this year. Clayton got a remote control car and Porter a tool shop.
The boys loved the stocking stuffers.
Clayton loved the big Hershey kiss.
Laun got slingshots and marshmallows for all the Hall and Larsen kids.
John got the boys a 22 gun- they got spoiled I tell you.
For lunch we had prime rib. I am so sick and can’t taste a thing, huge bummer.
Then we went to Ryan’s house and Laun cut up the deer meat with Ryan.

Christmas Eve
Christmas Eve dinner was at Ryan and Kami’s house.
The cousins acted out the nativity:
Clayton was a wise man and Porter was a shepherd.
Clayton and Pearce
Then the kids made candy necklaces.
We went back to the Larsen’s house and the boys got in their new pj’s.

Show Low- family time
Laun got back from the Iowa deer hunt on Saturday…so glad to have him back. While he was gone we had a great time visiting with the Hall families.
My parents and Rachel came to Show Low last night. It was good to see them. We went to Cooper’s grave today.
I think Cooper’s headstone looks pretty surrounded by snow.
Alissa by Grandpa Mike’s headstone.
Ester and Harry’s headstone.
We played in the snow.
Love my Laun
Gotta love my big-o-belly. Only 3 more weeks until I have this little girl!
Rachel and I
My heart brakes for Porter. Since we are moving he has to give away his Alley cat. He is going to give her to Janae’s family…at least he’ll be able to see her again.
