Traditions - What are they??

We are here and trying to make our own family traditions.

We ususally put up the tree together, and spend Christmas Day with all the family we can. We are planing to attend a Living Christmas Nativity Presentation Christmas Eve.

What are some things you do for Christmas??

No Need for a Dentist!

Sarah has lost her FIRST TOOTH!

It has been loose for some time, but tonight she lost it while eating a piece of ham. She thought she had found a bone in it, and was surprised to find it was a tooth!

She is hoping for a visit from the tooth fairy! rumor has it that the going rate is a looney.

She is very excited with the realization that her top tooth is also loose. How big we are growing!

Winter Wonderland

We are so excited, we might actually have a white Christmas!!! We have NEVER had a white Christmas here since we moved to Alberta. This is a picture of Early this month BEFORE a Chinook came in and melted most of it away. (A Chinook is a warm wind, that often melts all our snow away several times each winter.) It is a taken out our back door, across the deck looking at Ken's garage.

New Member of the Family!

We have WONDERFUL NEWS! We are adding a NEW MEMBER to the Lynch Family.

We have an estimated date of arrival of around July 6th.

This is very exciting for us, and we are all looking forward to a new Brother or Sister.

Stay Tuned for more details....

Ward Christmas Party

Mommy and Daddy were very involved in putting on our Ward Christmas Party this year! It was a lot of work, and tons of stress, but it turned out very good.

We did something a little different this year. We brought our ward to Bethlehem.

We had about 200 people come almost all dressed in Biblical attire. Daddy built all the stalls in the town. Each family was asked to bring a blanket, to sit on, and was given a bag on money to visit the town.

Each family went booth to booth, and purchased goods for their family. We received a candle at the synague, a Dredel at Toys, wooden stars to decorate at the woodshop, apples and oranges at the fruit stand, stuffed pitas at the bakery, and soup at the soup kitchen, and at the Inn we could get water, and large plates of goodies. We even had a tailor for those who were in need of biblical clothes.

We visited, ate, and had lots of fun. We watched a small program, perfect for us kids, and then cleaned up to come home. It was a very busy night, because Mommy was so busy helping, Daddy had to do everything with us kids. But it was still fun!

You can see Grandpa Moore, and Nana Moore sitting in chairs, and Courtney, Nicole and Kenny, with Daddy. Sarah is behind the other people, and Mommy is taking the picture.
