We all hoped you had a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year. Love all of you.

The boys in their new pjs. Two in Star Wars and one in Transformers. Ready for Christmas morning.

On Christmas Eve, we have a big family party at the church. The boys were ready to go.

On Christmas Eve, dad took the two older ones out hunting with old yeller, Destiny. Our good hunting dog, passed away in August, Hunter. So mama had to go back out. She got all but one. They boys had a blast and are planning to go back out on Monday.

This is Connor's way of helping. He dumped all the sprinkles on the bathroom floor. All of them.

Yes, my boys like to help cook. T.J. is making sausage balls. For being a picky eater he sure loves them.

We hope all of you enjoy watching us grow. We are getting so big so fast. We look forward to the new year. May all of you have a wonderful Christmas. Love ya all.

T.J and Brandon have different views on Santa. T.J. is too old but he still wants presents and Brandon well, he had a list ready to tell him. All the must remember is the true meaning of Christmas.

Connor is really into Santa this year. He was told if he was not a good boy he would not get any toys. He is telling Santa's helper that he wants a Transformer. "Please Santa, I was a good boy, as good as I could be" Thanks Connor

This was half time at the game. It was really entertaining. He was a guy that has a show in Las Vegas. Bring back the Villiage People.

Alon and I had a rare night out. We received some tickets to our newly acquired NBA team, the Thunders. I have not been to a professional basketball game. It was fun and we won our third game. Yeah!

Now to current events. Here is Alon graduation day. He graduated with his Bachelor of Science Degree in Criminal Justice Management and Ethics. He will begin is Masters in the spring on Science in Security Administration.

Look at the Horse, well it is a dog. His name is Boomer. He is Alon's cousin dog/horse. He is very lovey.

Just a few more pictures from the past year. This is Brandon taking karate this past spring. He really had fun taking it. He takes after his grandma.

We began August on vacation with Grandma, Roger Pa and Grandma B in Branson. The boys love to go boating and fishing with Roger Pa. The lake was too cold to do anything else.

T.J. at Branson on vacation with Grandma. He was feeding the geese and they decided to chase him. How fun. "You guys just wait a few more months and I will be hunting you with Pa."

Dont we all look so nice. All of us all dressed up.

Here are the boys at Papaws funeral. They always looked up to him. God bless the brand new angel who now has Hunter to walk around with.

This was a hard year of a few losses. This is our dog Hunter who was just with us for 4 1/2 short years. She was a friend to the boys and a hunting buddy to Alon. We will miss her dearly and always love her.

This is T.J. This year has been a challenging one for him and us with him. He did join the swim team and did very well. He likes to compete and enjoys swimming. He competed in 3 different meets and starts back after the first of the year.

Halloween is always fun at our house. We were going as Star Wars again. They were all going to be troopers and Dad go as Darth Vader but we let them choose. So Brandon chose Aniken and the other two as troopers

This is just a small portion of our year. I wanted to let you read and see just a little of us this last year. After the new year I will just go in order and not backwards. We love you all. Take care.
This is Connor who is 3 1/2 and being himself. Then there is the three all together. That was thanksgiving.

Brandon who just turned 7 in Nov. That was him all dressed up for his Christmas program. They are all growing up so fast.
