Monday we said goodbye to one of our favorite missionaries! It has only been a short time that we have known Elder Wood, but what an impact he has made. The kids were attatched to him immediately! They look forward each week to seeing the missionaries. Elder Wood and Elder Moli would bring a great mixture of fun and sprituality to our home. Luckily we still have Elder Moli! We are looking forward to meeting his new companion and "breaking him in." :) Many tears were shed as we said goodbye to Elder Wood, but as I laid in bed with the kids, we talked about how we have made a friend for life. We also talked about how lucky we were to have met Elder Wood and how there are other families out there that need him.
Jordan and Elder WoodPaige and Elder WoodChase and Elder WoodThe two Monkeys!!We have loved having missionaries in our home, but I have to be honest - my kids get way too attatched....I'm not sure I can go through this every transfer :)
Rick and I are so blessed to have 4 awesome and wonderful kids. We realize time goes by so fast and try to enjoy every minute with them while squeezing in time to enjoy each other!
Jordan
I can hardly believe Jordan is a sophomore in high school. She is counting down the days until she turns 16!!! Looking forward to driving and dating!! Jordan stays very busy with friends, playing softball for the school, and homework. She is so fun and keeps us very entertained with all the high school drama!
Paige
Paige is growing up way too fast! She is now in middle school and is doing AWESOME!! She continues to be very pationate about art and has found her new love.....our puppy MAX!! Paige is so fun and has such a cute personality! The phrase "big things come in small packages" definatley applies to her!
Chase
Chase is 10 and is our little athlete! He is great at everything he does and won't stop trying until hes got it! He is an excellent student and a great example to his friends. He is very involved in the scouting program and loves playing with his friends and even his little brother!
Cody
Cody is the big 7! I realized he is not "little" anymore when I tried to carry him up to bed the other night. We have so much fun with him. He is the family comedian. Cody is my little cuddler. He still loves to cuddle in bed with mom and dad. Most of all Cody loves to play and have fun!
