Happy Winter!

Winter started on December 21st and it's still going! December was soooo cold. It got down to -30 here in Pang Town. It was a record cold. We had a wonderful Christmas.The kids got up early opened all their presents and loved everything. Now that it's February they still like most of the things they got, but it's not as exciting. Kaelynn got a new bike and she really hasn't had a chance to use it yet, but I think she will live on it when summer hits. During all the Christmas parties my mouth was killing me. I went in after Christmas and had a root canal done. Now I am feeling a lot better.

January was a fun month. Tana had baby girl!! Yay! Kaelynn was excited to get a girl cousin. They are moving next month to Guam and we won't get to see them for a few years. We are sad about that, but it will be a fun adventure for them. We also went down to St. George and saw Todd and his family. Kylee was on her way Disneyland to work as a collage intern. That will be so fun for her. Mom had her birthday and we watched Barkly while they went to Las Vegas. Ben and I had a speaking assignment in the Cannonville ward. It was fun to go our there and see their old chapel that has recently be renovated.

Now February is half over. Time goes by so fast. We went to St. George again this month. Ben went to the Temple to see a co-worker get sealed to his family. He said it was very neat. I stayed back and watched the kids and Barkly. We had him again while Mom and Dad were at a Family History Conference. The Winter Olympics started while we were in St. George. We invited Missy and her kids over for dinner while we watched the Opening Ceremonies. For Valentines Day we had dinner with some friends and it was so fun. We plan on making it a tradition. Ben gave me a watch necklace. I love it.

Now for the big news.....  Today I am potty training Coleman. OK, so it might not be big new to everyone, but to me it's big deal. It will be nice to not have diapers anymore. I think it will take a couple weeks to a month for him to get really good at it, but you have to start somewhere.

I don't even know if I have mentioned the house we are building. Things are going really well. They are putting up dry wall and should start mudding this week. I hope we will be in by April. That would be a dream, but it's kind of looking more like May when we will actually move! Yay for us! Well that's it for today!
