It was a VERY VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS

well I cant sleep so I thought I would post a few pictures from Chads latest area and his last area. We will be picking him up tommorrow afternoon if ..... the roads open and the airplane lands! its a blizzard outside right now ! I just knew this was going to happen but I really feel that everything will work out tommorrow . Im so excited to see my boy, I have missed him so much lately. I think you kinda dont let yourself think about it to much for 2 long years but the month they come home you think about them constantly !!!! I am so proud of him for everything he has done on his mission. I know it was hard to learn the language but he did it !! well I wont get all gooey ! I just love him alot, like most moms love thier sons!!!

I just could'nt wait!!!!!

Who could'nt love a face like that!!!

well we have been listening to Christmas music for awhile at work and in the car and well.... ya at home so pretty much all the time so I just could'nt resist changing my blog for the Christmas season and thought I would share some pics of Christmas past. 2006 was the last time we were all together before Chad left on his mission. so he will be home on Dec 23rd and well I sooooooo excited and overwhelmed with JOY !!!

going home! looks like a party!

Here are the lastest photos form Elder Woolstenhulme. he is on the home stretch and only has 11 weeks left! I think he will come home but all i've heard for the last 3 months is that he will miss Japan A LOT! but we are really glad to hear that he loves it so much. He had a baptism last saturday, we hope it went well!

Anyone who knows Chad will "get" the mustach thing! we sent him a package for his birthday! and it looks like everyone had fun!!

Here are some pictures of our trip to Yellowstone last weekend. we had a great time with the Fosters and Jake! we love to camp! we went to Virgina City and a place we had never been before in Island Park called "Big Springs" they have ducks and really big fish to feed. the kids had a lot of fun!!!
