We received a bunch of snow - and that is good !  We sure need it. 
Rich Family Christmas was at Parkside Lanes (the same weekend I was in AZ). 
Roger was great to take some pics for me :) 
More parties at Chaos Fitness, where Landon's kids go to workout ! 
Do you see Payton in the grey T-shirt on the left ? 
Christmas Day at our house, mom got to hold Baby Bentley
Love this pic - Landon helping my dad to hold her 
Landon and Kacey and kids - love the matching pj's ! 
With Santa at the Dance Recital 
Love to see my grandkids peruse the books we gave them for Christmas.  4 years worth of catching up has paid off !! 
Love these four -  It's strange to have 4 instead of 3.........even Landon forgets he's got 4 kids.........I'm sure Kacey doesn't !  
Bright and the Grinch
Treyson and Allie - Christmas Eve (and Talon) 
Looking at the picture books - Christmas Eve

December happenings with the other Rich Family

Thatcher is showing Grandma Ben one of his wrestling matches - which wrestling really ramped up in December, with meets every weekend almost. 
A little remodeling in the "barn" 
It seems Zac can build just about anything. 
New shelves for CJ's supplies. 
Treyson wrestled at Millard Duels, and did a great job !!  
We saw Coach (Jose Patino) at one of the Morgan meets, and the boys just love him.  He's such a great coach for sure. He owns The Weight Room, and the boys love going there several times a week. 
Thatch did well at a tournament at Fremont High School. 
Tagg traveled all the way to Juab for a meet, and the last match was dumped on his head and received a concussion :(   A trip to Primary Children's on the way home, relieved mom and dad's nerves.  He had to sit out a week, but all is well.

Crazy house with new baby !!

This picture about sums it up at the Rich household in West Haven.  It's been a crazy few days (at the time this pic was taken, Miss Bentley was only about a week old).  She was born on November 29th.
Bexlee made a super gingerbread man while being watched by Yvonne (good friend and neighbor)  I'd say she went a little hog wild on the sprinkles, wouldn't you ?   
Bright had a holiday dance with her group.  
They are loving the snow that fell, and what a FORT/IGLOO they built - way to go kids :) 
We went down with Grandma Ben, and got to hold sweet little Bentley.  Payson likes to help out.

Baby Shower in AZ (Clear back in December)

I'm going to try and get caught up as much as possible - so hang on.  

Way back on December 11th, I flew down to Arizona for a couple of days to support Amanda and help out with a baby shower.  It's always good to see our Cam (above), with Zoe :)
It was a fun weekend. 
While there, we exchanged early Christmas presents, and Cam gave us her Senior pics she had taken.  LOVED THEM !!
Love their Christmas Tree
Day of the shower - Cam got a "crown" to wear.   At least she did for this picture :) 
Bren with his mom Susan (in red), and Aunt - I can't remember her name (I think it's Diane) 
Cam's Aunt Christine and cousin Hannah, and boyfield Josiah came also.  It's great to have so much support from extended family. 
Here are the "girls" - Therese, Jessica, Manda, and Tracy.  They are such great friends.  Manda and Therese have been friends since high school.  


It was a great shower, well attended by friends and family, and they received alot of great gifts for the baby to come !

New Grandbaby !! #11 Cash Rich Claussen

As sweet as can be - we sure wish we could squeeze him right now, but will probably have to wait until February.  It was a LOOOOOOOOOONG 50+ hours of labor, but they avoided a C-section, and all is well with Mom and Baby.  

 

Daddy is so so so proud :) 
Just want to SQUEEZE those sweet cheeks.

Well that's all the pics I'll share for now, hopefully can get one with Sister Cam soon !!

43 years today



43 years ago today at 5pm, our baby girl returned to heaven.
It was a bitter cold day - overcast (like today)
Seems like a lifetime ago.

Here we are three more kids, and almost 11 more grandkids later.......
We were 17 and 20 - now we are 60 and 63
As we get older, the years seem to pass by quicker.
There have been good times and bad.
We've had a grandbaby return to heaven also (5 years ago), and that was really hard.
Tomorrow? we may welcome another (the last one) grandbaby to this world.
In the next 10-20 years what will happen?
Great grandbabies......... (most likely)
Deaths of our parents......... (most likely)

Through it all, I'm so grateful for Roger. I don't know what I'd do without him.
