Snow trip

So Alayna saw a TV show where they built a snowman and talked about going to the snow. David was able to get a day off this last week and we had a great time.

2009 Year in Review

Where have we been? Well, not blogging. Here are some scrapbook pages for the last year.

Refocus on Holiday Values

I found a wonderful website for digital photos and scrap booking classes. I love learning new ways to create things. The website was created by Jessica Sprague. She is offering a free class for more information you can go to JessicaSprague.com.

The title of the class is Refocus on Holiday Values.

The assignment today is to take a few quiet minutes today to think about my values.

What are my holiday values?

• family

• Christ

• traditions
• togetherness
• friends
• the spirit
• laughter
• friendship
• gratitude
• sharing
• giving
• reflecting

What matters most to you?
I would love to have quiet together family times to focus on the Reason for the Season! I would love to have family tradition that strengthen family members testimony of Jesus Christ. And all the symbols that reflect Christ great love for all of us.

My Goal is to talk more of Christ and his love and less of the commercial traditional items, but have fun and learn to see others as Christ sees and loves us.

I am sure that my goal will be refined as the week goes on, but David is home and time to help get ready for an appointment.

I hope others will take this class and share their thoughts.

Alayna's First Hair Cut

1. 
   

Alayna needed a hair cut and my sister Shirley cut it for us. Alayna was not very cooperative, she cried until she fell asleep. As you can see David had to hold her down and a shot of her sleeping.










Here she is! (I can not get a good picture of her) We think the cut is cute and Alayna will tell anyone who asked that her aunt Shirley cut her hair. Any suggestions on how to get her to sit still and not cry? It was as if she has nerves in her hair the way she cried as her hair was being cut.
