Here is Jacob with a wish for Grandpa and Grandma. 

He is doing well, serving right now in an English speaking area.  He has a new companion just straight from the MTC.  He thinks he will go back Spanish speaking on the next transfer.   He told us on Christmas that his release date will be July 25. 

Here is a picture of Emily going to the Christmas dance.  We made this dress in about 1 week or less.  She finished her application to BYU and she is hoping to join Jacob in Provo in the Fall.  She is just starting debate for the season and is taking AP Government and calculus this trimester so she is very busy.  She also has one piano student.

Here is a video of David in their syllabus ballroom competition.  They ended up placing 4th and have potential to be better with a little bit of work.  He is having fun with ballroom and they just finished up the marching band season which he really enjoyed. 

Here is a picture of Matt playing football.  He is on the end.  He had some good tackles this year and also got to run the ball a few times.  He is looking forward to baseball season.  He got catching gear for Christmas including catcher's glove. 

Evan got the best gift for Christmas.  A new guitar.  He has been playing with it ever since (except for a day trip to go ice fishing at Henry's lake).  Everyone else seems to be interested in learning to play as well.
