Avarie's Birthday and Baptism


Avarie's turn to be eight years old and ready to be baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She's all dressed up in the dress I made for her. She picked out her pattern and material. She's growing up so fast. They don't seem to stay little very long. Her baptism was wonderful. Many of the family were present. Her Grandpa and Grandma Hardy gave the opening and closing prayer and her Grandma Kraus gave the talk on baptism. Even her great Grandpa Don was there.

2010 Christmas


Here we are, Christmas again. We have a couple of additions. James was married in November to Monique. She and her daughter, Natalia, joined our family. Of course, the family has grown older and hopefully wiser. It was a tough year. Wishing everyone a great 2011.

Winter Garden


Our winter garden of broccoli, cauliflower and onions. It will be a couple more weeks before we can pick and enjoy our crop. This is the first winter garden we have had.
