One of the greatest men in history!!!!!

Well Im sure pretty much everyone has heard by now of the death of our beloved prophet Gordon B. Hinckley. The news spread like wild fire last night that he had passed. I hadnt known what to post about for a while but now I cant think of a better thing!!! I have been reading all of the articles and tributes online any where I can and I have been learning alot about our president. Many things I already knew but some that were new to me. One of his greatest accomplishments were all of the temples that have been built. Did you know that the number went from 49 to 120 during his time as prophet? I didn't. What a wonderful man and leader. I am so grateful to have been able to live during this time. :) I hope every one is doing well and hope to see or hear from you all soon.

I remember this and I remember laughing very hard for a long time. What a personality!!!

Ready for Church!

Here we are last sunday getting ready for church and I got a little bit crazy with the picture taking but it was fun! I just think my girls are super cute and I just love them both sooo much. They have so much personality and it has us rolling every day! What did we do to get so lucky?

Micky is playing with me!

Christmas Eve

Ok so this is a little late but because we had sooo many c-mas photos I didn't feel like uploading them all. I know I am lazy but here is one of our traditions passed down from my family. Every Christmas Eve my Grandma Hall would give us pjs so that we could wear them that night. We have adopted that one for our family and this was our c-mas eve pic with our new pjs. Me and the hubby just got flannel bottoms but that is just as good for me. The girls also got to open one other gift from us and that was a new ornament for the tree for each of them. They hung them on the tree and then got tucked in to wait for Santa to come. :)

Getting down with the Wii

This is the funniest thing ever! Ok not quite but it was great. Our nieces and nephews got a Wii last year for Christmas and we broke it out again this year for a laugh filled day. For any of you that have ever played a Wii you know its not as easy as it looks, I found that out first hand! This person is playing tennis she is great though I better not say who it is in case she beats me later for posting this but my family will know (wink, wink) haha enjoy!

Im so excited about TWILIGHT!!!!!

Here is Edward and Bella for the movie version of "Twilight" Im not sure if they are who I pictured but I think they will be good. He isn't quite as "gorgeous" as he sounds in the book but Im sure it will work out. I am really excited for the movie to come out! I have totally fallen in love with this series. I read these books soooo fast I just couldnt put them down. Thanks to all the people who suggested that I read them! See ya :)

Our Christmas Cards

We just wanted to wish you all a very Merry Christmas. We have had a really great year. Michael is still working as a Foreman for Dream Home Developers. He is really enjoying his job and he does very well for them. I am a full time mommy as well as being a full time Lab Assistant. I have been there about 6 years now and it is still ok. I enjoy my job most of the time I only wish I wasnt so much of a Zombie! haha
The girls have both grown and changed so much this year. Mikelle had her 1st birthday, she started walking, talking, playing and is just being so independent now. She is a little ball of fire and has us laughing all of the time. She loves to ham it up! I hate to admit it but she is deffinetly a daddys girl. They are the best of friends. Michael is pretty much wrapped around this little girls finger! But that is good. Jayda just had her 5th birthday and to be honest I still cant believe she is that old. She is involved in pretty much every thing this year. She was doing ballet, tap, tumbling, a choir, soccer and she is in a preschool class once a week. Whoooo thats alot! She loves to be active and she is mommys big helper. She has her own chores and is working on being a big girl now. Mikelle and Jayda have also become the best of friends this year and I love it. They love to play dolls, and tea partys, pretty much any thing together. Dont get me wrong the fight alot but hey they are sisters right.
Michael has had a fun year hunting and helping guide some of his good friends. He didn't get his deer this year but I have a feeling he will make up for that soon. haha As always we were both playing alot of sports. Softball, volley ball and basket ball (michael) . I am trying to do my share of hobbies and things also. I am still in a scrap book club, I play volley ball weekly (if not more) and I am still trying to stay very involved with any type of music. Which brings me to my church calling that I love! I get to be the Primary music leader!! I absolutly love this. The kids are all so wonderful and it lets me get really creative and have lots of fun. It is something that doesn't make me nervous either! Michael is in the elders presidency and he is enjoying that. He is a talker so it just comes naturally to him.
Well Happy Holidays to you all! We love you and appreciate you all so much!

Love,
The Abbotts
Michael, Teresa, Jayda and Mikelle
