We hope all is well this holliday season! Our year has been full of fun moments and blessings that are too numerous to count. One of our biggest blessings was the addition of Jaxon (March 10th) to our family. He is a bundle of joy who likes to make machine gun noises when mad and eats as much as he can. He has a wonderful smile and loves his brother and sister very much. Ashtyn is now two - almost three and is a very intelligent, adoreable and at times fiesty young lady. Her best friend is her older brother (and vice-versa). She enjoys playing with J.T. in the dirt and with cars but has recently developed a love for princess dresses, kitchen playsets and anything that is the color pink.
J.T. is four - almost five. He loves his brother and sister and is a very nurturing older brother. He'll play just about anything especially in social environments. He loves pre-school and going to Disneyland with our annual passes. His absolute favorite event of the year was his first "mud run" this year in which he did very well. (pictures and comments of the mud run are posted on part of the blog published earlier this year) Leslie and Marshall are doing great and love the house, area and friends that they have made in the past year and a half. Marshall is having fun at his job and has had the opportunity to travel which he enjoys. He has also been attending, and participating in, city council meetings to be more involved in the community and has enjoyed that. He also has enjoyed taking on projects around the house and looks forward to new ones. Leslie has been very busy taking part in a pre-school with a group of mothers that rotate teaching responsibilities throughout the year. She is also busy making custom girl hair bows that are very nice. Her primary products are flowers, but she also does ladybugs, dragonflies, butterflies, and normal bows. She is the only one in the family that gets more excited about trips to Disneyland than J.T.
As said before, we are very grateful for the blessings we have received. We hope all of you have a wonderful holliday season and a happy, healthy 2010!
Marshall, Leslie, JT, Ashtyn and Jaxon
