I Love to see the Temple


Though we feel like poor college students again going from a roomy home to a small dorm room on campus we enjoy being right by the new temple here in Rexburg. Almost everytime we pass it Haela asks to sing, "I Love to see the Temple" so Haela and Enoch know this song even better than the ABC's! For FHE on Monday we had a lesson on the temple--so, of course, we sang our favorite song. Here is Haela's solo!

Christmas


It was nice to have our first Christmas at our own home (we have always traveled to be with family--now that we are near family we didn't have to travel this year). Santa was grateful that Haela's most desired present was a "My Little Pony" ($5 value!). She was SO excited when she opened the gift she so desired! We hope as she gets older her taste will stay this inexpensive : )!





We got a kick out of Enoch's reaction to one of his gifts. We call it the "Lamb Torture"! We hope you all had a great Christmas!

Saying goodbye!


Grandma and Grandpa Checketts and uncle Ian have now moved to Laie, Hawaii! After four years of being away we finally moved back to Idaho close to both grandparents and then they move away?! : ) After they got packed up we spent some fun time with them at the hotel swimming befor they left. We will miss you!
