Ok, let's try this again :)

Alright, I am going to try this again. Hopefully things will slow down and we can get everything back in order. Here's our "christmas letter" update, ha ha ha!

Cody is working in Payson building a Walgreens (yes that's a two and a half hour drive ONE WAY!) But he is almost done. When he's not at work he's either watching kids for me (so I can go take pictures) or he's working in the yard (YAY for a YARD!)

Ann is still BUSY with photography and trying to get the studio all fabulous. I just got my window signage yesterday (haven't seen it yet, but know it's there) The past month or so have been a little crazy health-wise so we are trying to slow things down and get healthy! (We also downloaded a 62 page e-book on how to "guarantee" having a baby boy, ha ha ha!) I have found it very relaxing to work in the yard.

Holly (Cowgirl) is growing up so fast! I can't believe she will be eleven in August. She is in 4H down in Hooper and is loving it. We got to go down there last week and it was fun to watch her learning. She also just received a FREE lagoon day pass for taking some brownies and flowers to a neighbor who lost TWO dogs (I would love to claim this was my idea, but I LOVE IT EVEN MORE THAT IT WAS HER IDEA!) So the neighbor girl bought her a Lagoon pass to thank her. I am so proud of her :)

Katie (Princess) is still a princess. She is taking antibiotics for an ear infection and hasn't complained once about her ear hurting?!?!? She got her kindergarten shots (even though she won't start for another year and a half) and keeps reminding me that she cried but she got band-aids. She turned four on April Foul's Day and loves her new princess bike (she rides it all over the house).

Abby (Baby) is HILARIOUS! She is such a mellow kid (attitude wise) but when it comes to just sitting back and chilling - there's not a mellow bone in her body. She does a little shoulder dance that is so cute (we MUST purchase a video camera for this). She has eight teeth and a new crib (due to a horrible "overflow" accident in her crib).

We love life and hope to remember (just like my mom says) THESE ARE THE GOOD TIMES! Summer - - - bring it on!

I am so glad you are back! I love reading updates like that.

Merry Christmas to you!!
The only way I know of getting a boy for sure is adoption. But if the book turns out to be promising let me know so that I can be sure and get a girl next time! If there is a next time. I may not survive 2 kids.
I'm glad that your work is going so well. I just had James' 18 mos. photos done here.
My family will need a new family picture soon as we have a couple new additions since last time. Are you free in August?
