Missionaries

Look at all this posting I've done lately! Don't get use to it! There's no way I'll be able to keep this up!
 
As you probably already know, Ty left on his mission about three weeks ago, and is doing well. You can keep up with him at:
 
 
We're trying to post weekly when we get his letters and emails. So far he's had to adjust to a lot of things but he's getting the hang of it and enjoying it.
 
Tanner's sister, Kinzi got her call the same day Ty reported to the MTC, she is called to serve in the Ireland/Scottland English Speaking Mission and reports to the MTC on March 27th. She seems both excited and nervous which is to be expected.
 
I've been keeping busy with the kids and lately have been doing the advertisement for My Best Friend's Closet, a store owned by my Mom and Mother In Law's friend Jill in Tooele. It has been fun and keeps me busy. I do their facebook and email right now. (Like us on Facebook please!)
 
Other than that, everything is pretty much the same old thing. Kids are getting big and a lot of fun and we're looking forward to our first Christmas in this house and more importantly our first Christmas with baby Emerson!
 
 Emy at Halloween, just got this picture from my mom.
 Searched high and low for a coat to fit Emy and this is the best we did, still a little too big I'd say.
This was at the mall with our last family outing with Ty before he left. He's an awesome uncle!

Nothing New...

We don't have much going on here, but there's lots happening with our siblings...

Ty leaves 8 days from today (his 19th birthday!!) He's excited and nervous, and to be honest, so are we! But we all know he'll do great! You can assure yourself that he'll play hard and work about ten times harder. We are lucky to have him as a brother and uncle!

Tanner's sister Kinzi also turned in her mission papers today! She turns 19 in February and we're excited for her! We'll keep you posted when she gets her call!

While I'm doing a sibling shout out, I must mention Hunter! He's not leaving on a mission but he still deserves some recognition for being an awesome uncle and brother! He's a great helper and we love having him around!

Ok, here are the pics!

Tatem gets a little personal with the kisses but we're just glad he loves his baby!

Awww...except it's naught to have a phone out at church even if it's before the meeting starts!

oh yeah, I did finally get my diploma, this is the 5 second graduation ceremony/photo op! I graduated a week before Em was born, but just now got the paper!

Tate's two favorite things: Grandma and Grandpa's Tramp and Mater (who he stole from Grandma Ricks) Mater sleeps with him, eats with him, bathes with him...try putting mater through a sleeve, it's not for the faint of heart!

Tate loves to hold Emers, he doesn't even mind if she cries. He just pats her belly to try to calm her down!


Ok not the cutest picture but I'm not smart enough to figure out how to delete it! Sorry everyone! Look away!
