Catching up
I know, I know.....I have heard it from a lot of you. I have been at the bottom of your blog list for quite some time now! Life has been busy and blogging has been the last thing on my mind. Here are some cute pictures that I put together for a few other projects I was doing. Just want to show off how darling my son is!

Merry Christmas!
Due to the fact that I am too lazy and cheap to send everyone I know a letter and pictures, those of you who are on my blog list will be recieving your letter through this blog. I am sorry, but as you can tell, I am a huge procrastinator and am quickly running out of time. At least you will get yours before Christmas! I know this would have been much better had I enlisted my wonderful husbands help...he is the witty one, but once again...I am working against the clock!
Dear Family and Friends,
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I apologize that many of you may not receive this letter until after Christmas but it has been a crazy month which is just in keeping with the busy year we have had. Last year at this time, we were waiting around hoping to have a baby on any day but Christmas. Aiden arrived kicking and screaming on the 29th of December. He is such a happy boy with an easy smile. He loves balls and girls and will smile and talk to any woman who walks by. He is just starting to take his first steps. He has been such a blessing in our lives. We can’t remember what life was like without him.
I took the spring semester off and tried my best to learn how to be a mom and wife at the same time. Tyler continued going to school at Utah State and working. We were expecting Tyler to graduate that semester, but we found out he lacked one class. So he took an online class this past fall and is now graduated!
At the beginning of summer, we got word that my dad’s boss was considering building a 5,000 cow dairy. My dad put in a good word for Tyler and after a few telephone calls we jumped in the car and moved to my hometown, Enterprise! Tyler has been working his brains out, but he is doing what he loves and that makes us all happy. They have about 2,000 cows now and they hope to be milking in a few months.
We had no place to live, so my parents let us live with them for a few months. In August we found a house we loved and could afford so we put in an offer and they accepted. It was a long and frustrating process that I don’t look forward to doing again, but on October 16th we became home owners! It is an old house built in 1920, but it has so much potential. We are so excited to put a little elbow grease into it and make it ours!
Unfortunately we have had no spare time at all and the house has just stayed exactly the same. Tyler has been crazy-busy with the cows, and I started student teaching this past fall. I love teaching, but I am definitely glad to be done. I have a deep respect for the working mom and have decided that I am not tough enough to do it. Luckily I found a great baby sitter who Aiden loved which made it a little easier. But I am happy to report, after months of lesson planning and portfolio creating, I am graduated!
While I wish I could report that the craziness stopped there….it didn’t. There was one thing left to do on the list: Aiden’s surgery. I really just wanted to get it over with, so I kept the doctor and appointment in Logan. A few days after we had both finished with school, we took off to Logan. We really had no idea what to expect, but luckily it turned out to be an extremely minor case and the doctor had to do very little at all. After about a day, Aiden was back to our happy, smiley boy.
It has been a wonderful year. We are so blessed to have such great family and friends. We love you all and wish you a memorable 2010.
Lots of Love,
The Emmetts
