NEW BABY BENSON

 On Wednesday-December 15, 2010-
Baby Benson was born into our family.
7 lbs 6 oz, and 20 inches long.
We have 3 boys and 3 girls- what a perfect order!
 Mollie and Donny really enjoyed how much the hospital involved them immediately afterwards.
 Mollie crocheted a baby bunting for him last week.
It snuggled him great and got a lot of attention from the nurses.
 Great grandma was so excited for him to come home.
She loves holding him and it is a neat sight to see.


Queens and Snow Bunny

 Donny calls Holland the Queen of our home.
She is modeling the no shirt style above,
Sadie and Myriam are modeling Myriam's new birthday shirts.

 Hunter is obsessed with shoveling snow.
He shoveled our driveway 3 times today.
He also loves making snowmen with mom and snow forts with dad.

Myriam's Baptism and Double Birthday Party

 MYRIAM WAS BAPTIZED on SATURDAY DEC 4, 2010
A member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints.
Her mom gave a talk on baptism, Myriam sang a solo-"Baptism," 
and her dad baptized and confirmed her.

 Mollie braided all the girls' hair matching-
They are 3 princesses!

 Grandma Jolene, Aunt Sophie, and Aunt Robyn
made her a beautiful cake for her 8th birthday party
that we had afterwards- WOW!

 Myriam and Grandma are knitting together-
 grandma bought her more knitting supplies to keep her developing her talents.

 Holland had a double birthday party with Myriam
(Since her birthday is only one week later)
Grandma got her a baby- since mom is having a new baby soon.

 While all the cousins were here, we took them to see Santa
(at the park across the street)
and we took them on 4 wheeler sledding rides
(in the field next to our house)
On Holland's actual birthday, we were sick of sweets,
so we had oranges.  (Mom was sick of sweets anyways)
