"Choose The Right"

Natalie turned 8 years old the week after Thanksgiving. She had been preparing, over the last year, to be baptised in December. On December 26th, Natalie was baptised by her Dad with family and friends close-by. It was a memorable service! She and her Eastern cousins even sang together. Natalie continues to strive for righteousness daily. And enjoys reading her scriptures to strengthen her testimony. She is a "daughter of God".

Traditional tree decorating time.

The weekend after every Thanksgiving, we decorate and put up the Christmas tree together. Daddy and the girls are in charge of decorating the tree. And Mommy is to decorate the rest of the house.






Well, since we had recently moved-in we weren't quite sure where to put things this holiday. So, we moved the piano and coffee table for the tree to be in the right corner of the room.












How many girls...I mean lights does it take to decorate YOUR tree???












Only AFTER the tree was completely decorated did we realize that it would fit perfectly on the LEFT side of the fireplace.

And "THAT'S" how you get your Christmas tree from one side of the room to the other...you change the color of your decorations:)

"Welcome to OUR home!"

This was the video Jerry recorded as we were driving up to Corry Ave after we signed the papers and ALL 5 of us got our OWN key:) We love our new house. What a blessing and amazing miracle all that happened to get us to this BECK home to grow-up in! Now we have room for company. We'd love to have you come and visit anytime.
