Where to begin?
Well we bought our first home! We now live in Yacolt Wa....and we LOVE it!!!! There is 3-4 inches of snow on the ground as I write this. It is beautiful out here. Very peaceful as we are almost surrounded by trees. Only 5 minutes to Sunset Falls. :) We love our home and are enjoying having a wood stove and a Christmas tree for the first time! Steve is finishing up his 3rd year with Home Depot and is doing very well!
Gavyn is now 5 1/2!!! He is learning quickly, he writes and reads the Alphabet and numbers. He writes and reads his name and is recognizing words he has learned to spell. He is doing complex addition and subtraction. :) He has already memorized a few Bible verses too. He completed his first 6 months of Taekwondo with an orange belt and is now in the Black Belt Club. He is so excited about his new uniform! 
Lena just turned 3!!!! Yes, 3!!!! She is growing up so fast. She loves playing with her brothers. Her favorite character is Tinkerbell! (She calls herself Lenabell.) She loves helping out and really is a "little Mama". She recognizes her name and knows her alphabet and can count to 10. She tries hard to keep up with Gavyn and take care of Daniel. She is so loving and definitely tells you like it is. She will be one powerful woman of God some day. She is our beautiful angel!
Daniel just turned 2! My last baby is not a baby anymore. His favorite word is "no" at the moment...or "yes" if you tell him "no". He growing into his water-testing phase and tries to be stern with you or pout but he just can't help but laugh. He giggles constantly and is sure he is just as big as brother and sister.
Samantha, our beagle, and Vala, out kitty are liking the new home too. Sam has a whole fenced yard to run in and Vala loves looking out the window!
I hope this finds you all well. We love you all, and miss you! May God bless you this Christmas with all of His love and joy!!! Know that we are thinking of you all and keeping you in our hearts!

Awe!! Lenabell is an adorable nickname. So creative too. Gavyn is growing so fast, I'm so excited he's learning karate so quickly! D is looking so cute. They are all such wonderful characters. :D I can't wait to see you all soon.
Your children are darling. I'm glad to hear things are going well for you. I just found the email with your url. I think Lennie checked my email and I didn't notice it since it was marked as read. I'm excited to keep up with you guys.
