We are alive! We survived the holidays and are trying to adjust to a new routine. We had some trouble with our computer a while ago and ever since I have not been able to download my pictures on. I am not a procrastinater, my pictures just say things so much better than I do! Anyways for now you get to hear me. Things have been a little crazy in our life for the last little while. Ben was laid off from his job in October. We had a little rough patch but my husband being the wonderful hard worker that he is and with lots and lots of faith and fasting and prayers (thank you to everyone who prayed for us!) he was able to start at a new job January 5th. It has been going well and he seems to enjoy it. We are adjusting to commuting. He travels 1 1/2 hours to work and 1 1/2 hours hom everyday. It makes for a long day but we are very grateful that he is working! The girls had a great Christmas. We went to Boise and spent the holidays with my family and had a great and relaxing time.
Miley is changing and learning and growing everyday. It seems like she grows out of pants every couple of weeks. She is going to be taller than me someday! She is enjoying her preschool co-op and her friends. She is a CTR 6 this year and is anxiously awaiting kindergarten in the fall!
Addison is as mischeivious as ever! She keeps me on my toes which is a good thing. She has the energy of the energizer bunny. She is funny and quirky and has the greatest little laugh. She is also the most tender hearted little girl. She is a sunbeam this year and already volunteered to give a talk in opening exercises. That was very stressful for me but she did not even flinch. It was a very proud mommy moment.
Peyton is growing like a weed. She is a grabsy mcgrabs a lot. Everything in sight she is grabbing for it and trying to eat it. Her favorite thing to do right now is spit and it is the cutest thing ever. (You would think I have never had a kid before). We love her laid back nature. She is very tall. We had her 6 month appt and she is in the 45% for her weight, 70% for her head, and 95% for her height. She will be our sports star!
That is what is up with us right now! I am trying to figure out the picture thing but since I am technologically challenged it could take a while!

John was laid off from his job last month, too. Thankfully he had a feeling it was coming and began interviewing with another company. he got the job but it does mean moving either to Portland, Spokane, Sacramento or somewhere else we just don't know right now.
Tell ben congrats on the job. I barely made it through lay offs at my office. Now the company might go bankrupt! Ahhh! Glad to hear you had a good christmas. Miss you guys!
I'm so glad that he found another job, you are very blessed. We have friends that haven't been able to find new jobs for months so congrats!
Yeah! Love to hear from you guys again and soo happy things are going well--that's a crazy commute, though! We've been mailing in kindergarten applications for Sage--It's crazy! I can't picture her away at school yet! I'm sure Miley is so excited. And, geez, Keiger and Addison would get along. The stuff that boy gets into! Anyway, great to hear from you guys!
