Our Month of December

I cannot believe it is 2009! Once again, another year has flown by. December seemed to go especially fast--I had a lot of blog catching up to do as you can see with all the pictures I have posted. As many of you know Mark is starting a new job. It was a hard decision to quit working for Rhodehouse Construction, but we think it will be better for our family to have more time with Mark! We all have been enjoying having him off work through the Holidays. We have made a couple trips to SLC, where we did a little shopping, saw the lights at temple square, swam in the Homestead Crater, went through the Body Worlds Exhibit, and Candace got to spend a day with her childhood friend, Lindsi. We have also had lots of fun playing in the snow, watching movies, and drinking egg nog. In the middle of all the Christmas chaos, our little Coleman had his 2nd birthday. Everyone was so busy, we couldn't get everyone together for a party for him. Good thing he is young enough he didn't know the difference. Next year, I think we will be celebrating his birthday in November. We are just starting a few projects on the house before Mark starts work next week. He will be working at Ruby River Steakhouse. It will be like the good ole days at Sizzler--I am really looking forward to using his "meal card" yummm. Oh, and the good health insurance!
