Oldies

I found some old pictures at my parents house! I seriously have the BEST, most loving parents. I'm grateful for my wonderful childhood.

I also LOVE my little sis!

Farewell

Jaren's parents are now serving their mission! We are so excited for them but we will miss them very much! They are serving a church history mission in Europe, but living in Frankfurt, Germany. Here are some pictures from their farewell, the airport, etc. We are VERY grateful to them for letting us stay in their home while they are away.

And this picture has nothing to do with their farewell, but I just love it! Jaren with our nephew, Jaxon, at the park.

I also love this one with another nephew, Truman, brushing his teeth with Jaren.

Gus

We love our little Gus puppy! (Our mini goldendoodle.) He's a little fluffernutter! I have taken SO many pictures of him. So to free up the space on my phone I am posting them to this blog...

When we brought him home he was so tiny!

My Grandma Wood just ADORES him!

He loves to find my clothes and sleep on them.

He grows very quickly, gaining just under a pound a week. He should be around 25 pounds when full grown.

He LOVES to play! He also loves eating Jaren's shoes, tummy scratches, sleeping, and going on walks.

He loves kids... Well, he loves everyone!

He does not like baths.

He gets fluffier every day, and does not shed! We're so glad he's our pet!

Holidays

The holiday season was wonderful! It went by way too fast though!

Here are a few memorable events...

We went to Ballet West's production of The Nutcracker!

Emily went through the temple!

Jaren's parents got their mission call to Europe! (They will be living in Frankfurt, Germany.)

We met up with our friends from Billings!

And we bought this guy! A mini Goldendoodle. We get to pick him up soon!

We also went to see Savior of the World, which I absolutely loved! The season was wonderful and I'm so grateful for my Savior and this special time to celebrate His birth!
