Winter Time

Hi to all my friends and Family. Sorry I have been so bad at keeping this updated. So I am going to try and cram in the last couple of months. We had a wonderful Christmas with both sides of the family. It is so much to get together with all the family. Tom and Sam love all the cousins they get to play with on the Mitchell side. And on the Leatham side they are the center of attention. We enjoyed family parties with all. Now that we are into February we are just trying to stay warm and keep the snow shoveled. The boys love to help shovel (though I usually have to go over what they do and do it again.) But, they are having fun so that is all that matters. Since Christmas and New Year's Eve we haven't done much. My birthday was the end of January, and we have Valentine's this month. But, it is nice to have life slow down a little. I am just going to put up some pictures to help catch everyone up. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday, and I hope we all survive the winter! I can't wait until Spring.









Captions for pictures: This is the family ice skating in Logan (Nov. 2008). Tom loved it, but Sam was too scared to try. This is the boys sledding down the hill in front of our church (Dec. 2008). This is Daniel with Grandma and Grandpa Mithchell at the family Christmas party. This is Daniel on Christmas morning. Sam and Tom after decorating the Christmas tree. This is Grandma Munns and the Mitchell boys at the Garland Firehall on Christmas Eve.

I love the walker for ice skating. That is a great idea.

I just love seeing Aunt Alta. She is so dang cute. The kids are blessed to know her.

Birthday's

April is here and with it brings many birthday's. On April 5th Ed turned 36 (shhh, don't tell anyone), and on the 10th Tommy turned 6. The boys had a lot of fun on their birthdays.

For Ed's we went to an indoor go-cart place, and let Ed and his best-friend Darryl go racing. Ed's bosses, Jean and Vaughn, also joined them for some fun. Of course with my belly getting bigger I got to babysit the boys. They had fun playing the video games and watching Dad get his butt kicked by his friend (shhh, don't tell anyone that either).

For Tom's birthday we decided to go bowling. It was a lot of fun for the whole family. Obviously we haven't done it for awhile, and Mom had a little handicap with the stomach. Tom and Sam almost beat their Mom! It was a little embarrasing. Everyone had a good time though.
