Okay,really, this is not a cheesy Christmas letter where I tell everyone how wonderful my family is but---------------Jordan made the paper today and was honored as an All-American swimmer in the 200 backstroke. In order to make All-American you need to have the top 16 times in the nation. When he swims, it is like a machine and just beautiful to watch. At the state meet a girl on his team took pictures but not mom, so I don't have any to post but will when I get them. By the way I don't post the bad news like we are eating rice and beans for the rest of the month because Logan and Mason get to go to EFY for the week for the whammy price of $800.00 or that I have so much laundry that all my baskets are overflowing or that something in my fridge has died and I really don't want to find out what it is or that I hate the price of gas (currently $4.29 9/10) and we own a truck and a family van that both get crappy gas mileage or that today is the last day of the month and I got the call from my cute visitng teacher supervisor and had to give her the news that "no I did not do my visiting teaching this month not evan a phone call or a letter". Should I go on or will it suffice if I list the good things and keep the frustrations of life to myself. Really life is good -
it could be better but it is my life and it is what the Lord wants me to deal with so I will post the fun stuff and love my life!

Don't sweat all the other stuff--you're the moma of awesome studdly boys and your the greatest camp director ever. What more you you want!
You forgot to mention that you babysat 6 kids at once last week - you do enough of those sweet acts all of the time to feel good even if you didn't get to your visiting teaching!
HA!!! That picture is HILARIOUS!! Congratulations on all american swimmer... especailly since Bakersfield has a lame swimming program. However I bet it felt awesome to pass up those Clovis swim club kids:)
Wow Jordan, All American swimmer. We can finally brag about our cousin who is going on a mission too!! Linda, Life sounds great. At least you can afford the rice to go with the beans!
We are living on beans! Anyone want to come visit??
