Hopefully, you can view the videos. I entered them as links and I don't see anything except the one I pasted

Family Dog went to heaven

Zeus left our home on April 1st and I still can't write about it. I will need to edit later.

Famous!

Presenting at a conference out in Palm Springs: Libby and Sage!

They had the privilege to show off videos created in their classroom by students to many educators and even the talked to California's State Superintendent of Public Instruction from the department of Education, Tom Torlakson. The girls were well prepared to speak to him. What an honor! He really liked what was going on at our school.

Brooke came with Lee and I to tour the exhibit hall. She got a lot of attention as vendors wanted her to try out their new toys. Lots of touch screens and SMART technology. She was given many freebies, including a shirt!

Note to self: love your children, but don't drive to PS and back in the same day. Then attend a performance of Grease in the same night. Makes for a headache for sure!

The Gap

Our baby lost both of her front teeth this weekend! The first one was on the way up to Running Springs to visit some friends. She took a drink of water and there it was. The second tooth was lost this morning when she sneezed and out it came...no blood. She has been wiggling forever, so at age 7 and 3 months, Brooke lost her 3rd and 4th tooth.

She is very happy with her new smile!

Update on Grandpa Reynolds

My Dad is doing much better. He is now out of the hospital and staying with my Aunt and Uncle (saints of the the most high). The surgery went well according to the doctors. Thankfully, my Dad received a blessing by my uncle and cousin before surgery...I know that is what helped him come out without his mouth wired shut for the next 6 weeks. Instead they put plates in his cheek area. He still has quite a bit of swelling, especially since I understand they went through his nose to perform the surgery. I have included a picture of his 1971 Ranchero (what is left of it) and the pole he hit.

Merry Christmas 2010!

You are not the only one that didn't get a card from us this year. I am sorry, but it just didn't happen. We still love you all and want to wish you all good tidings. We have done many wonderful activities surrounding the birth of our Savior. Christmas parties, singing in concerts and caroling last night with 5 local missionaries.

We are happy spending time with loved ones and opening presents, but this time of year has also brought us stressful times. Libby has become ill and my dad was missing! Yes, I couldn't find my Dad and it became an emotional roller coaster until a hospital called me. It turns out he had been in a car accident on the 22nd less than 3 hours after I had been with him. His car does not have an airbag, so when his face hit the steering wheel, he sustained multiple fractures to his face, including the jaw. I finally was able to visit him today after he experienced moving hospitals and floors twice. He is a stubborn man (his own words) and is refusing pain meds. We are all praying for him and we know that this will all pass.

On a better note, we have experienced prosperity this year and feel very loved by each of you. Thank you for your love.
