A family outing to Valley Fair amusement park in late summer included 4 of our 5 children + our oldest grandchild

John (Ann Arbor), Ben (Minneapolis), Ryan & Cathy (Apple Valley), and Carol (Zurich)

Laurie, our 5th child, was too busy to spend very much time in Minnesota this year.  She is working on a PhD at BYU in Provo, UT.

In this photo she is at a friend's wedding reception in Utah earlier this year.

Adele, the second daughter of Louise & Ben, was born on December 3, 2009. This is our 7th grandchild.

We are grateful for our blessings as we celebrate the birth of our Savior this Christmas.
