Celebrating
Jana's 45th Birthday!
December 30, 2007

Jana woke up to "breakfast in bed", made by Lori, Kyle, and Ray.
Waffles with peaches and cream and the traditional Orange Julius!
Yumm! She felt spoiled!

It snowed! Kyle and Ray helped clean the walks and driveway.

(If it hadn't been Sunday, we would have played Fox and Geese!)

We celebrated at Dad DeYoung's and had

ice cream cones!

Then we went to Dad and Mom Wood's

and had some cake and more ice cream!

At home again, Lori lit the candles and they all sang "Happy Birthday". Then Jana opened some fun gifts.

All that, in addition to a birthday email from Corey & Alisa, and a phone call from Cameron & Sarah, it was a great day!

December Happenings!

Our Family Christmas Breakfast
December 21, 2007

We decided to have a breakfast the
one morning we all had together,
the day after Corey & Alisa came in from
Boston and before Cameron & Sarah left out of town.
It was nice having everyone together.









After we ate, we were able to exchange a few gifts.













Here's a slideshow overview of our December activities. Our family keeps us busy!

Thankgiving Dinner

Just a few photos of our Thanksgiving dinner. It was fun having the Wood side over for dinner this year!
After dinner, Cameron and Sarah shared some great news with us! They're expecting a baby in June! No wonder she had a glow about her when she came through the door!

Jana visited her sister Wendi and her family during Halloween! What a fun time to be with the Austads. Thanks everyone!

Catching Up!

The Music Man
November 2007
Kyle was in his High School play. He was part of the
quartet. They sounded so good together, and they
had such a great time. Each performance was fun to see!
























Halloween 2007

Here are our three Goblins!

Ray, Kyle (Harry Potter), and Lori (Happy Health Care Physician)

Ray is one creative guy. Here he is in his own original creation: Bumblebee Transformer!

Us and Jack

We had a spooky Halloween and when we came home from trick-or-treating, met Jack.

Happy Halloween!!!

Already October...

Family,
Corey and I can't believe it's already October! We are so excited it's Conference Weekend! We were able to stream it through ksl.com--what would Conference be without Loyd Newell's welcome. Love you guys and enjoy conference!


Thanks for a great Boston visit, Corey and Alisa. We loved being with you!

Thanks for a great summer!

Moab was such a great trip! It was so fun to explore all together and have a good time!

February Fotos...

Happy Valentine's Day!
Decked out with lights for
Carnaval. Remeber the entrance?













This trolley stopped right in
middle of the road and
motioned for us to come stand
in front of it so we could get
a great picture...and there
ya have it...a great one!!
Corey and I had a great Valentine's Day! We had heart-shaped pancakes (thanks to mom and the mold she sent last year) and Corey surprised me with a valentine at breakfast! These are also some examples of the lights the string all throughout Cadiz during Carnaval. We've included a pic from Lisbon, but if you want to check out a few more pics you can check out our blog: cacrowell.blogspot.com!

Date to the Symphony

We had a great time at the symphony! It was a perfect evening and Swan Lake is one of my favorites! Our camera had very little battery left so we took a couple of quick pictures. One before and one after. We almost gave up on the last shot, thinking it wasn't going to take. But then, it clicked!!


















We're glad Grandpa & Grandma could join us, too!

One wonderful Family

So, posting this is a new experience. I have no idea how this will turn out. It's all an experiment. -Mom

What fun memories! It was so fun having everyone together.
