Winter Wonderland or Hoboville?

As soon as we got snow the battle lines were drawn.VS
Anderson had it made...whenever Cayden's snowballs hit the old screen that made up his fort the snowballs turned into powder and Anderson never got wet. Cayden, on the other hand, continued to get pummeled.
So the following day while Anderson was still at school, Cayden enlisted some reinforcements and the fort was expanded.
Their new set up made Anderson's screen look a bit puny.

So if you are driving by my house and enjoying the beautiful snow and Christmas lights...

You might want to look the other way 'cause my front yard looks like Hoboville.

Gifts of Family

My sister Alison was at a Primary Presidency meeting and her friend asked the group if anyone knew someone that could give her a hand with Adobe Photoshop. Alison gave her my name and phone number and boy am I so very glad that she did! The woman told me about a website that she found where you could download a free template of a photobook of the Family Proclamation! It is so awesome. You can change the colors of the background, throw in your pictures and it all correlates directly with the entire proclamation. It took me over a day to complete the book because I did manipulate the template to fit my needs. But in the end I created three different books for Christmas presents; one for my parents, one for John's parents and one for John. The website also shared a new publishing site that is 1/2 the cost of the one's I have used in the past. I haven't received them in the mail yet but here are a few pages from my mom's book:

Here is the website for anyone who is interested: http://www.legacydigitaldesign.com/Photobook/photobook.html

Merry Christmas!

Choir Cousins

MAC's Christmas concert was very good, with the guitar club, bands and choirs performing. Both Anderson and Elizabeth had solos and they all did an excellent job. At the end of the event the band played while everyone in the gym joined the choirs for a sing-a-long. It was very cool to sing both religious and fun carols at a school event. The four cousins have been working on When Christmas Comes To Town for our ward party and Mathews Family Party. Anderson, Kenley, Elizabeth, Haley

A bit nervous before his solo...he said his hands were shaking pretty bad.
