Pioneer Trek

Jayden just went on the pioneer trek, Dec 29-Jan 1st. They had about 150 kids go. It is the first time they've done it in the winter because it gets so hot here in the summer, it is really hard to get through the trek without dehydrating. So, Jayden was a little cold! It was a great experience and I cried when I watched him come in to finish the trek. I was so touched by the spirit and so grateful that he went. There were several youth I knew there, and I was so proud of all of them! The people that planned it did a great job. :-)

Merry Christmas!!

We had a great Christmas. I am just a little slow getting some pics on here. The best was getting Guitar Hero World Tour for the 360, and Dance Dance Revolution for the Wii. I love the DDR game! I'm slightly addicted to it, actually. The Guitar Hero is so fun because we can all play together. Even Shjon is learning the guitar and drums! Jayden put on Katy's Hannah Montana wig, and was rocking out. We were laughing so hard we could barely do the song! It is so much fun.

Georgia Aquarium

On Dec. 22, 2008, we went to the GA Aquarium in Atlanta. It was a lot of fun. We saw so many different kinds of fish, and sharks! They swam over our heads in certain parts, and we thought it was so cool. We watched a 3-D movie and even had some hands on experience! Jayden touched some shrimps that were running around! Shjon touched whatever that spongey thing is under his hand, Katlyn was nervous and I don't think she ever actually touched it, but maybe for a millisecond! The Beluga Whale was awesome to watch. We saw Arland that day too, but I forgot to take a picture! (lame-O) He looks AWESOME and we had a short and sweet visit!
