Chloe and 2 Richardson boys

Rita and Tom stayed a couple of days with us and Bryan, Ivan and Chloe decided to watch movies and play Beatles Rock Band.

Big News

We moved into a home in North Orem in October. It is really nice, we are still renting, but the nice thing is Melissa's dad is our landlord.

Here is the kitchen where the pictures of Chloe cooking were taken and on an earlier post is the backyard where Melissa and Chloe are making snow angels.

Oh, Melissa and I are expecting our second child. Melissa is just finishing her first trimester.

Don't tell Chloe that its cold and snowing.

Two angelic snow angels.

How would it be to be this small and ride a snow shovel in the backyard.

Snow on the slide who cares?

Chloe doesn't care!

Cookies anyone?

Chloe loves to help her mom make cookies

We have done a few things since the last posting like Sledding,

and the Jordan World Circus,

and amongst all that fun we even had

 time for Chloe to get her first hair cut.

Thanksgiving Point

We enjoyed a wonderful night with my aunt and cousins.  We went up to Thanksgiving Point where we saw some reindeer and enjoyed some cider and cookies.  We then took a wagon ride and saw the lights they have set up there with Christmas music playing.  It was really fun and the kids loved it.  We miss Rita and Ivana living close by, and are always happy to see them and spend time together.  

Thanksgiving

Well, as you can imagine this was a little bit harder of a day for my family.  Not only was it Thanksgiving, but it was also my mom's birthday.  We decided to go to the cemetery and wish my mom a Happy Birthday.  We brought her some flowers and balloons.  Each of us wrote a little card that we tied to balloons and then we sent them up to her while singing Happy Birthday.  We miss her so much, but we know she is still here with us and that we will be able to be together again.  We then enjoyed a wonderful meal with family and friends.  I was so happy to have so much family around.  I truly feel so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends, and even more so to have such an amazing husband who is such a strong support to me.  I can not even begin to express how thankful I am to have Chloe here with us.  I am so grateful to my Heavenly Father for letting her stay here on earth with us.  She is just so happy all the time, and keeps me smiling and laughing each and every day.  

WE LOVE YOU MOM!!!!!
