Christmas Letter Update

I decided not to send out Christmas Letters this year, but decided to still do a Christmas Letter to update everyone on our lives over the last year.  But since I am not mailing cards, I decided to post it on my blog and share on Facebook.  So, hopefully most everyone will still get to see it (We may need to send a few special ones to Grandparents who do not use technology!)

So, here is our Family Update for 2013:

Glenn

• "Babysitting Computers" for IBM - will be celebrating his 20 years in the coming months
• Moved offices, cutting his commute in half - now only 10-15 minutes long! Yeah!
• Called as Membership Clerk for Brookwood Ward - so he is now the guy wandering around Sacrament Meeting counting all in attendance - sometimes he even has a little pink shadow following him "helping Daddy"
• Started attending Game Night with several men (mostly in our ward) a couple times a month
• Dealing with the loss of his Mother - Sharen Case - and planned her funeral.  We really miss her. 
• Playing Skylanders and Disney Infinity with Emma on the X-box 360 

Heidi

• Teaching Emma's Preschool
• Released as Primary Secretary after 5+ years
•  Joined Weight Watchers in April - has lost over 50 lbs
•  Going in for Carpel Tunnel Surgery two days after Christmas ... Finally!
• We were approved to adopt again - our profile is at https://itsaboutlove.org/ial/profiles/24602869/ourMessage.jsf 

 Emma

• Turned 4
• Completed 1st year of Preschool, and started 2nd year
• Finished potty training! Yeah (Mom is very excited about this!)
• Loves Pink, Purple, Cats, Hello Kitty, Unicorns, Horses, Cloths
• Quazi, her Imaginary Friend, has moved in with us. She is also often visited by several other imaginary friends daily. 
  

Looking Forward to 2014

• Visiting Disney World in May
• Taking Adoption/Fostering classes with DHS - looking at adopting older children.
• Emma starting Kindergarden in September

We hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
