A whole Year

Well, a whole year and come and gone and I haven't posted a single update on this blog. So here is a summary of 2011:

2011 has brought much joy, and as of late a lot less sleep.

Unto us two children were born, unto us two sons were given, and they shall be called….. Triston and Dewight. I bet you thought we were going to be preachyJ. Yes it is true; on 11-11-11 we were blessed with two beautiful, healthy, identical baby boys. Since then we have not slept and we look forward to November 11, 2029 when we will sleep again.

LoraLee has turned three and is adapting to her big sister role naturally. She tells her brothers what to do and, of course, they don’t listen. LoraLee started Preschool at PreKademy and is excelling academically. She charms everyone she meets and is our sweet girl.

Allie is relieved that her pregnancy is over and looks amazing. She has taken the year off from teaching and is adapting to being a stay at home mom. She continues to be an amazing wife and mother along with being a great support to her family.

Finally we get to Greg. He has started a new career with UPS as an Account Executive. He is enjoying working with the scouts and has enjoyed introducing them to Dutch oven cooking. Between work, home, and church callings he is staying busy and out of trouble.

To those of you who are reading this and say "this looks familiar" well it is basically our Christmas letter. I thought it would be as good an update as any. I plan on updating this blog monthly so look forward to hearing about our wacky, fun, and sometimes predictable life.
