January 1, 2014 - Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!  We celebrated New Years by playing at Leo's with the Bargabos family and also going roller skating. It was your first time roller skating and it was so much fun to watch you. You were pretty wobbly at first and fell quite often. (Your poor tailbone!)  You kept getting up though and kept trying and you really got the hang of it and had a lot of fun!  We also had a fondue dinner party with Grandma and Grandpa Packer and Jeni, Nolan, Mackayla and John. You didn't stay up until midnight, but we did have a toast with sparkly apple juice.  At church on Sunday, you set resolutions in your class, which were to be nice to your mom and dad and Connor and to help make breakfast and dinner.

Today we went to "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2" and you really liked it. Tomorrow is back to school and you are ready and anxious to go back. We had a great Christmas Holiday full of fun and family, but you have really started missing school. A few nights ago, you came to me crying saying you were ready to go back to school and that you missed your teacher and your friends.





Triston - I am so happy you are my son!  You are kind and generous and your old-soul makes me laugh. You take your school work very seriously and you are a great reader. You are reading at a level much higher than first grade. You are always concerned for others and you are always opening the door for others wherever we go. I am so proud to be your mother!
