Family Time

Hooray, cousins together at last! Jenilyn, Wesley, Dallin and Grandma reading a story. Wes is Dallin's only cousin on the Mixa side (at least until Rose and Josh's little girl is born next month!)



Here's Wes looking cute as usual



And Dallin continues to demonstrate his solemn, doe-eyed pose. I promise he's a happy, energetic kid!

mel's major milestone



December 18th, 2007 was a very significant day for me. It marks 5 years since I finished chemo and radiation treatment for Hodgkin's Disease (which I was diagnosed with in July, 2002). These are pictures of me 5 years ago at Christmas time, and today at Christmas. I can't believe that much time has passed by already! The five year mark is significant because the possibility of the cancer returning drops dramatically. Just thought you might want to celebrate with me!

What year do you belong in?

Hey, at least I'm in the same decade as Ashley....anyone else?

You Belong in 1959

You're fun loving, romantic, and more than a little innocent. See you at the drive in!

Halloween!






Dallin was so excited to be a "ho-see" this year, he loved putting on his costume. Here's some pictures at our ward Halloween party and on Halloween night.
