Merry Christmas!!!

Thanksgiving is over and I hope it was wonderful for you. Getting together with family is one of my favorite activities. Mom is staying at Lori's for now and we are spending a lot of time there. She is getting weaker, thinner, and sleeping most of the time. Remember her blog will give you many more pic and details of how she is doing.

Christmas Concert this year is a week earlier, so life is a little busy right now. But it is a good thing it is early, because Grma Iris has arranged for all of her family to go to Hawaii for Christmas!!! It will be fun to post those pictures of a warm and family filled Christmas when we get back.

We hope all is well with you and that the source and purpose of this season is in your heart and mind.

Merry Christmas
Brent and Jan

A month later

Wow, has it really been a month since the last post? A lot has happened in that time. Mom has been staying at our house with a couple of trips to my sisters in Utah Valley for a few days each. She is really doing quite well, especially for a lady who was suppose to be dead a month ago. Hope you have been keeping up with her blog, It can chronicle the whole journey for you.

In addition to Mom and her adventure, our street has been under construction. We have not been able to get into our driveway for over 2 weeks. So we are parking up at Mom Petersen's and walking back and forth. We now are the proud owners of a sidewalk and cement driveway. We don't have a paved road yet... in fact today (snowing) it is pretty muddy and really a mess, but hopefully when it gets done in a few weeks.... it will be really nice.

Jess and Drew have moved into their new house... It is on the hill in North Salt Lake. And this last week, not only J&D started at a new ward, but Kim started going to her home ward, and Brooke and Q and their family started going to their home ward, also. It has been a transition week....

Dani has been spending every spare minute she has making calls for Prop 8 in Sacramento. Life is not boring is it!!

Happy Election Day.
