2013 Beginings
Sledding
James has been anxiously waiting for snow. We didn't have much but decided it was enough to go sledding.
The sledding hill out back. The kids were actually sad that Grandpa and Uncle Keith removed the tree they kept hitting last year. James talked about "watch out for that tree" all year.
Clara and Lea's attempt at snow boarding in front of the house.

Merry Christmas 2012
The annual news letter, on the blog:)
Anthony continues his employment with BKD. He has had several different positions this year in security and special projects, but is now back on the Network team. He serves the ward as the financial secretary and takes care of the kids who are home in the evenings.
Jessica keeps busy keeping up with the 5 (soon to be 6) kids. She serves as the ward organist and helps out at school occasionally.
Emma is a junior this year and thinking ahead to college. (I don't know if we are ready for that. She is growing up too fast!) She is very active in school: ITS officer, school plays, chamber choir, show choir, color guard, NHS, FCCLA, Junior class president . . . This summer she participated in Missouri scholars academy, EFY, and remodeled her bedroom.
Marianne is in eighth grade. She was also on the color guard this year and ran cross country. She is enjoying playing the clarinet in band and singing in choir. She continues to love to read and has been sharing her books with Grandpa Maughan. He is found with a book almost as often as she is.
Clara started middle school this year! She participated in basketball this fall and loved it. She also sings in the honor choir. She enjoyed taking a few trips to St. Louis with her Grandma to see the cousins over the summer.
Lea just turned eight and was baptized last Saturday. She is working hard in school and improving her handwriting. She loves to read and will talk about her books to everyone who will listen. Her favorite author is Tony Abbott.
James is a busy active boy. He LOVES Star Wars, dinosaurs and Legos. He wants to name his baby brother Anakin or T. Rex. He is pretty cute, smart and spoiled.
