Dear Family & Friends,
It is that time of year again. Hard to believe that another year has come and gone. We have had a lot of things happen this year that has definitely helped us grow stronger together as a family and as individuals and realize that we have a loving Father in Heaven watching out for us. In September we embarked on a new adventure and moved from Utah to Washington, and were able to go back to Utah for 10 days, and spend time with family before everyone on my side is spread across the country. Spencer and I also celebrated our 10 year anniversary.
Logan is 9 and is so helpful. He is excited to be playing basketball in January at the YMCA, and has been actively involved in the after school club at his school four times a week. We are constantly hearing the bouncing of a basketball, or the throwing of a football and have to remind him we have neighbors that can hear the vibrations of the basketball, and that something will break with the football.
Lincoln is 7 and has sooooo much energy. He just got done playing basketball at the YMCA and had a blast. It is great for him to have something for him to put all that energy into. He has really improved with his reading, and is looking forward to getting baptized this summer. He is loves playing with Linzy and can’t wait to go skiing this winter.
Lexie is 7, and loves to read and draw. She had a hard time leaving her friends in Utah, and her dance team, but has adjusted pretty well. 3 weeks before we moved out here, she fell on the tramp and broke her growth plate in her ankle. She is anxious to get back into dance out here. I will often find Linzy up in the top bunk with Lexie in the morning. She loves being a big sister, and is great at it, and can’t wait to turn 8 also.
Linzy is 2 ½. Time has flown by so quickly. She talks nonstop, loves playing with her friends, reading books with mom, going on walks, talking on the phone, and having lunch every day with Dad. Spencer’s work is only 1 ½ miles away, so he comes home for lunch every day, and Linzy really looks forward to that time. She is such a doll, and makes us all laugh continually. And she is potty trained.
Spencer is working as a Mechanical Engineer at Key Technology in Walla Walla. He is really enjoying it. We just got called as valiant 10 teachers and love teaching that age group. He can’t wait to go skiing a couple times this winter, and enjoys spending Saturdays with the kids.
I am thankful for the sacrifices Spencer makes so that I can stay at home with the kids. I was really scared about the move out here and was not looking forward to leaving all our friends and family back home, but have really enjoyed making new friends out here, and know that the Lord is watching out for us.
I have had fun getting into digital scrapbooking, and am doing great out here with Scentsy. We miss everyone back in Utah and love you all dearly, but we are enjoying it out here na know this is where we are suppose to be, and Walla Walla is starting to grow on us. We know the Lord is mindful of all of us, and watching out for us in all we do.
May we all feel of our Saviors Love this holiday season and remember it is him who we celebrate. Best wishes for a happy holiday and wonderful New Year.
Love,
The Mullen Family
