My parents are away on vacation to the Oregon coast. They sent this picture. I thought it was a great one. I'm glad they're healthy and happy and able to go on trips they want.
On Wednesday September 3rd, 2008 I was at my Mom's house. I started having small contractions that kept getting more frequent. When I would be talking to my mom and have to stop just to breathe we decided that I was in labor and would probably be going to the hospital that night rather than the next morning for my scheduled induction. We had dinner there and after dinner I told Jaime to go ahead and go to mutual as he was in the Young Men's presidency. I wasn't in enough pain and didn't want to go to the hospital too early.

However as our family gets bigger and everyone has things going on it does make it more hectic for us to get around to go see everyone. We tried to make things a little less hectic and easy by not trying to make it to everything like we have in the past. On Christmas Eve afternoon we went to my parent's house and built gingerbread houses with those who were there. It was fun doing something simple and being able to visit. Over the hills to grandmother's house we go. Aunt Lori and Aidan paired up to build a house. Tyler and I built one, rather I built and Tyler licked. I'm not eating any of this one. ;) Lindsey and Uncle Jon built a skyscraper office building. Olivia and Grandma Marcia built one together.
