Jocelyn's Birthday

We went to Ft. Collins to celebrate Jocelyn's seventh birthday. Who is the real doll here?
Jocelyn got to pick her favorite dessert for her birthday party and looked through Tamara's chocolate cookbooks and found a rich chocolate pie with cherries on top. It tasted as fantastic as it looked. It was her turn to wear this special birthday hat. Sure looked cute!

Jocelyn and Morgan now have separate rooms. The first thing Jocelyn wanted us to do was to come and look at her new room. She had this new bedspread and curtains and wallpaper border to make it very special just for her. Morgan is equally excited to have a room all by herself.

Tamara's Birthday Party

We were so glad we could celebrate Tamara's birthday while the family was in town.

I have been working on photo albums this week and finishing up the 2008 pictures. Thought you might want to see some of the Christmas pictures. The above picture shows us playing Natalie's Ticket to Ride--Europe game. I think if you click on this little line you might see the various manicures we all got during the holidays.

Roslyn and Ethan are exhausted after such a busy and exciting Christmas. Note Ethan's favorite pillow.


Cameron was soooo excited to open legos. He started putting them together before the rest of his gifts were unwrapped.



I think Natalie has this gift figured out by the look on her face.



This trio sounded wonderful on Christmas Eve! You wouldn't believe the progress that Charles has made on the clarinet with Clark's teaching skills.

December Trip to Utah

Kristen and Geoff and family in December

Burnside Family at Zach's baptism

Paul and Zachary on December 6, 2007


We were able to go to Utah the first week in December to attend Zachary's baptism. While we were staying with Grandpa Klemm, we decorated his tree. As you can see, he looked much much better than he he did most of October.


Kristen fixed a delicious meal with homemade carrot cake for dessert. Pictured here are Brittany, Roslyn, Jeri, Zachary, Cameron, Monika, and Alathia
