happy new year 2008!?!


we had a great time in the oc over new years! today though, is the first day since we've been back almost a week that i'm feeling normal! we finally took down our christmas tree today (i was thinking maybe we should just keep it till my bday next week)! i know we aren't alone w/ the sick bug! carter threw up on the drive home, so that made for a fun treat! and now that we are feeling better bren is starting to feel it. but hoping this new year will bring lots of good things! we have LOTS of trips to go on, we are looking forward to our new calling (which changed to teaching 14-15 instead of 15-16), carter will start pschool (which means he HAS to get potty trained soon)etc. there are lots of things to look forward to in the new year and we are hoping our health will just be on the up and up! k back to our oc trip. it was fun to just relax! we got to see the lucas fam (we chopped sherri's hair off), our good friend ty blessed his baby, we got to see new baby owen, shopped, played games, and mostly hung out (we wish we could of seen everyone, but we just weren't there long enough)! we really remembered how much we LOVE hb (like i ever forgot), but even bren said how much he misses it too. i'm sure one day we'll feel that way about az...................

cute pictures! I love that one of the 5 little kids on the couch. It's so funny to see all their different expressions.
