Don't forget to pay dues if you haven't!!! Scroll down to the next post to see how.
Thank you to everyone who sent in news!!! Please keep it coming! :) Love, Jenna
Neil & Mike-The good news from our house is that Tena is back home. She has been gone since last April. She has been in a few different places receiving help with her mental disorders. She has made great improvements and we are very excited to have her back. There are still some large hurdles to get over where schooling is concerned so we would appreciate you remembering her in your prayers from time to time. Tom is playing basketball for his school and so far his team has won all 8 of their games. Maybe that height will come in handy after all. Rachel has a friend taking the Missionary discussions in our home and so we are enjoying the extra Spirit that brings. Our pasture looks like a huge mud bog after our recent rain storms and the kids are having lots of fun doing their chores with the mud threatening to come to the top of their knee high boots. Memories.....Neil says "It could be snow" and really freezing! I hope you are all enjoying a little lull in your lives after the holiday madness. Love Aunt Mike

LaMont & Evy-Sorry there isn't a lot of news coming from our side on the family. I look around when I get the prod from Jenna to send news and realize we have no graduations, no deaths to report, not one wedding, and in all it seems, the "spectacular", kind of evads us. We are however, if it is news worthy, and you can be the judge, healthy, well, pending an operation to sew Tennyson's feed tube hole up in his stomach, and a tiny operation on Melisa's daughter Elise's finger which is slightly crooked, then we are well.
The boys are wrestling in Reno, getting ready to try out for baseball while being in mid season basketball, in Manteca.
Evy and I are basking in the light of great kids and of course wicked good grand kids.
Love to all, If you are doing as well as we are, then none of us has a care.
Love LaMont and Evy

Molly & Aaron-We're all doing good and staying busy! Hunter is 14 now and playing basketball for the Jr. High and having lots of fun. He's also getting ready to start his Eagle project here in the next month or so, after it's all written up. He's having fun with young men's too!
Tanner is 12 now and loving being in young mens too! He's playing basketball for a city team (the Spurs) and is doing great.
Jake is 9 1/2 and is also doing good! He's playing basketball also for the city and he's on the Washington Wizards. He loves cubs and is excited that Uncle Chad is his new den leader.
Hailey, 5 1/2, is really great too! She's been out of school and sick all week, but I've loved having her home with me. I know she can't wait to get back to school though. She loves kindergarden and all that is involved with it. She's going to start tennis in March and can't wait for that!
Aaron and I are good too! Life is fun and we love the age that are kids are! It's fun to go see them do whatever they are involved in! It's a blessing to have great kids!
Hope all is well with everyone! We send our love!
Molly and Aaron and kids
Melisa & Tye-
Layne & Frankie-
Rachel & Rob-Time marches on, and it is getting faster and faster. The Fransens are doing good. Hannah is growing teeth she almost has 4. Dale is loosing teeth he has two spaces and two loose. Cody is doing great in school. He won the FFA Creed contest and won $100. He competes again next week. Alex joined the wrestling team and really likes it. Boyd's team won 2nd place in the history day program. He competes at the county level in March. Elizabeth is my shadow. She wants to help me with everything unless I want her help then she often says "No, You". Hannah is scooting around but not quite crawling. She loves to do things with Elizabeth and always has smiles for her brothers. Rob and Rachel are just busy doing all the same things they always do. We have gotten used to our new neighbors (my parents) and the kids love it when Grandpa calls for helpers. Well that's all for this month. I hope everyone is having a good 2010 so far.

Kara & Michael-Dear family
It has been a few months since we have sent in any news. It seems like time is just flying by. Were able to enjoy a great Christmas vacation at my parents this year. And we still made it home into to spend the New Year with Jeremy and Leslie. Emily started walking at my parents the day after Christmas. She can really get around.
We have been sick here the past few days. The only part I enjoyed was today when we all took naps. I can't complain when I can take a much needed nap.
Mike is doing some winter safety training this weekend he isn't looking forward to it. I think it would be great to fun but isn't that how it always is those that would enjoy it can't.
Love
Kara, Mike and family

We had a fantastic Christmas with the whole family... We spent the night Christmas eve at the office. It was nice with plenty of room to run around and have fun.Jenna & Kevin-Life is good and keeps trucking on. The 1st semester of school just ended for all the boys! They all did fantastic on their grades!!! Kaden and Gavin are loving basketball. Kaden's team is undefeated... and they just beat the other undefeated team last night! They sure are fun to watch!!! Hunter and Kellan finished wrestling. Chloe has been practicing making snow angels on our kitchen floor. :) Kevin says this should be a record month for the business! :) We've been looking for a home to buy. Our lease ends here in July. We're glad the home prices continue to drop! :)
