Sledding

We took the kids sledding today because the snow that was falling was perfect for sledding. The kids had alot of fun aswell as Jorge and I. Here are pictures to prove it. And then we took Jorge's mom and dad to Texas Roadhouse to have some dinner. The food was very good.

Christmas Village

Yesterday Braden had a Field trip with his preschool to Ogden's Christmas Village. Mrs. Clause was our tour guide and at the end of the tour the kids took pictures with her and she gave each one a bag of candy. Santa was resting because he works at night.

Lazyness

Recently I have been feeling lazy to write in this blog. We haven't done much fun things. But life has been good. Jorge finished this semester a week ago and he got decent grades in his 2 classes, I am very proud of him it was a hard semester because he started working the swing shifts and it was kind of hard for him to make time for his homework plus making time to be with us. We hope in the coming year he can go back to a day shift. I have been busy working, helping with kaylee's kindergarten class and teaching joy school in addition to housework, cooking, laundry, ect....

My Father in law arrived from Venezuela on Dec.3rd and we are all very happy that he was able to come a reunite with his wife. We have been very blessed because we had to do alot to be able to have him here with us and the Lord provided the way for everything to fall into place so that he could have the necessary documents to travel into the US legally.
All of us at the airport when Jorge Sr. arrived.


Father and Son. You can't see Jorge's face very well.

We have big plans for next year. We want to start remodeling our floors. We have been 9 yrs in this house and the carpets are starting to look dirty and ready to replace. We want to put tile through the kitchen, didnig room, family room, laundry room and entry ways. It is a big project that we would like to start around spring or earlier depends. This is the tile that we have chosen up to know. Who knows maybe we will see something better when we continue comparing prices and stuff. But we like this one so far.

Thanksgiving Family Dinner!

Our Family Thanksgiving dinner was very good. We all gathered at my parents house and had dinner and where able to chat, play some boardgames and watch a movie. The food was very yummy just like every year. This year I am very thankful for everything that I have. For a warm nice home, clothes, cars, work, my kids and husband and my immediate family. This year it has been tough for alot of people and families around our community. I hope and pray that we as a family can continue to be doing okay. And to always trust in the Lord, that without his help we don't have nowhere to turn to.

Sorry, but I always forget my camera at these family gatherings so there are no pictures.

The New Moon Movie

Last night Jorge and I went to see New Moon.The movie was very good with great computer effects. I really liked this one better than the first one for the reason that the story was very well told and because it did not jump from one part to the other. The first director of the "Twilight" jumped alot during the movie and missed a couple of key things from the movie. For example she never mentioned Bellas Job at the sporting goods store. Anyway the wolfs were amazing and huge, I think they did a great job to portray the strengh, and the power that the wolfs have. I am really excited for the next movie to come out which will be next year around summer. There is so much to tell but little time. I hope you can all have the chance to see it.

Halloween Parade

Today Kaylee had a Halloween parade at school and Braden had a Halloween party at his preschool. They both wore their costumes today almost for the whole day. That means that I need to wash braden's costume so that he can have clean pants and shirt for Trick or treating. They had alot of fun today at their different activities.

Jack-o-Lanterns

Yesterday we carved our pumpkins for Halloween. We had smaller pumpkins this year and only one big one. So I carved the big one and the kids each carved a small one. I ended up doing braden's but Kaylee carved her pumpkin all by herself and she did a really good job.
