Happy New Year!

What a great way to start out the New Year with the blessing of a new family member. Congratulations Levi & Dania! I decided to make a tally of our family members. There are 30 grandchildren & 59 great grandchildren. By my account and I could be wrong - of course, the numbers change so fast around here we're always afraid to ask whats new. But I do know there is another great grandchild on the way. (TJ & Misha) There is also a wedding coming up - Emma and Marshall and the date I heard was Feb. 18th. I'm not a very good reporter I work mostly on hear say but I know someone will correct me if I'm wrong. The family Christmas party was a success and we are looking forward to next year. The decision was made to put a family in charge. Ricks family took this year and the Olson's will be in charge next year. The scarey thing is that it will be here before we know it. As I was taking down my Christmas tree today I went through a little sadness as I always do at the end of the Christmas season. But I know that time passses so fast I'll be putting it up again soon. Am I the only one that thinks that way? Well, here we are in 2012. A new year - a new beginning to be better than we were last year. Yes on Monday we will start our new diets, we'll vow to be a better friend, a better mom, dad, sister, we'll make a new committment to read the Book of Mormon, to de clutter our homes, get more organized. Do any of these sound familiar? I wish you all a Happy successful New Year and Good luck with those New Years resolutions. As for me I am working on all of the above and added a new one this year - I hope I can figure out my new IPHONE! I hate it right now and I know hate is a strong word, but I hope to turn it to love someday. Happy New Year Family!
