Day 194
December 18th, 2011
Sunday
Today was our sweet, dear friend the Kenner families last day in our ward. They are moving to Alaska this week. We'll miss them terribly. We thought we'd better get a picture of our boys Jaren G., Jaren F., and Jaron K. before the Kenners leave. All 3 boys mom's are friends and all 3 boys were born close together in 2002 and at least 2 of us thought we made up our boys names, all pronounced the same. Next time the 3 Jaren(on)'s are together I imagine they'll look quite different.

Saturday
This is a picture of my best buds taken one afternoon after school. We must be 16 or 17? I found it and took a digital picture of it because the lady in the middle, Angie is moving far, far, far away, to Alaska this Saturday. We'll miss her terribly. We had a get together of old friends Friday that lasted into this morning.

Friday
The kids were so excited tonight because Santa came on a sleigh pulled by a lit up firetruck. He visited the children and gave them each teddy bears. Santa said we have the best neighborhood because he hadn't seen that many kids at once all night. My neighbor Lisa pointed to me and told Santa it's all my doing. Love my neighbors, love living in my little town.

Thursday
Tonight at toastmasters I gave a speech I entitled "Out of the Blue" where I talked about Grammy and how she died and I didn't say goodbye to her and I talked about Jadon and how I thought he died out of the blue. I'm really liking public speaking. The speech can be watched here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJvIXhOycFY&feature=g-upl&context=G2cb3f25AUAAAAAAAAAA

Jolie and Paul ran errands and came home with this lovely Christmas tree that Jolie picked for us. It's small because I didn't even want a 3rd tree (which this is), just tired of decorating this year. It makes the family room smell good though.
