The trip to Texas

Brody wearing his girlie valentines jammies and playing with his bud Ashley... they became quite the duo.


At the dedication of the new Fort Hancock building...

Brody all bundled and ready for the trip.

We had so much fun and came home soooo tired (totally worth it).

Superbowl weekend in Idaho

It was a great time with Grandma and Grandpa chaffin (and the 55 no 47 no 42 inch TVs)...

Ellie wearing the scouting outfit her daddy wore when he was little.

Brody loves his Grandma.

Snow day with the Wells

It was so much fun. Ed and his family came up and brought the sleds...

Grandpa was worried they were gonna tear up his lawn but it was fun while it lasted.

Brody in his snow stuff... it's about time... He couldn't wait to get on the snowmobile

Fun Pictures...

Ellie and her cute little curl...

"Who 'dat?!"

It was sooooo cold that night... but really fun.

Fun Stuff

Cute little Ellie in her Christmas Jammies

Brody and the Birdie puppets... He was so afraid of them Christmas morning he couldn't keep his eyes off them.

Ellie and Grandma Chaffin... Ellie's blessing dress.

Brody and the graduate...

Just getting his diploma... finally.

Fun moments from the last few months...

Just a sampling of some "kodak moments" that happened between Ellie's birth to after Christas:

Brody's halloween costume that he insisted on wearing all week before and after halloween.
Jared and Brody "doing homework" together (classic)....

Brody was so quietly playing in the pantry so we checked on him and.... powdered sugar everywhere!

So stylin!... We were bored at home during the priesthood session, and we found some fun accessories...

Still alive and well at Grandma and Grandpa Wells'

Well, we are still waiting to hear from Kiewit about a possible job opening that Jared interviewed for. It has been an anxious few months here in Utah. We are enjoying the being done with school but obviously are anxious to be in our own place and Jared to be working. In the meantime Dad and mom are keeping Jared busy with the promotion of the gardening book and odd jobs here and there around the house. We are very grateful to be at their house while we wait. Here are a few recent photos of Ellie and Brody.. so cute!...
