Happy Human Rights Day!

Today since everybody had the day off, we took a hike on the red mountain out by Tuachan. The hike was recommended by Bob, of BOSHMA fame. The girls had fun climbing on all of the rocks, going through caves and tunnels. It was a perfect family hike, not too hard and not too easy. As the girls rested and had a snack, Terry went up to the top himself. After the hike we went to Fiesta Fun to use up all of the tokens we have found around the house. It was a beautiful day to be outside and we had alot of fun as a family.

Christmas 2008 at the Losee Home

Every year Grandma Cowley buys the girls new Christmas dresses. Aren't they beautiful girls.

And Grandma Losee buys them new PJ's.

They are still beautiful even when they just woke up.

We almost had a white Christmas this year. Terry welcoming the snow on Christmas Eve.

Jantzyn with Fancy Nancy's Dog Frency.

Jaicelyn got a baby. Santa specially made her to look just like Jaice.

Jorrin with her new DS.

Jadyn finally got a cellular device (as she calls it). As you can see from Jor's expression she couldn't believe it either.

Ugliest Christmas Sweater Ever!

For my work dinner party we had to wear the ugliest christmas sweater we could find. Terry and I looked and couldn't find anything ugly enough so we decided to make our own....needless to say we won for the best couple!

SnOw DaY!

On Thursday Dec 18th (my Dads B-day) the girls were all out of school for a snow day. They had a ball sleding and being out in the snow all day. I wish I could have played with them but of course there is no such thing as a work snow day. Can you see Robyn and Adam's House?

Jaice, Jantzyn and Kylie (our neighbor), sleding down the street.

The black hill all covered in snow.

Our Yearly Weekend Away

For the last three years Jorrin and Jaicelyn have been in the Dickens Festival's plays "Oliver" and "Scrooge". They were there four nights in a row and did 10 shows. They loved every minute of it. I, however, am a little burned out and told them this is their last year. Jorrin promised she'd do anything (just like the song in Oliver) to be in it next year. We will see what we can come up with and if she really will do anything.

Jaicelyn the orphan. She was perfect for this part since she usually ends up looking this way by the end of every day anyway.

Jaicelyn selling matches to the director (Matt whom they love) in Scrooge.

Jorrin the pick pocket.

Jorrin the townsperson in Scrooge.

All 7 of the cousins that were in the plays. Talen, Jorrin, Jaicelyn, Tavin, Calli, Kassidy, and Sadie. This was taken after everything was over. They were all crying and sooo sad it was done.

The Best Christmas Pagent Ever!!

Our family had the oportunity to be in the Nativity at Tuachan with our ward this year. Our family were all angels (you know it will never happen again in this lifetime, we are more on the devil side most of the time).

Terry doing his Garth from Wayne's World impersonation. "I'm not worthy".

Our family of Angels.

Getting ready for the show.

Terry's parents took pictures of our debut performance. Jantzyn was a little nervous up on the cat walk.

The 3 other girls were on the other side (they wanted to go through the tunnel, and Jantzyn did not!).
