December 16th we celebrated Joslynn's 5th birthday. She was so excited to turn five, thinking she could go to Kindergarten the next day. She was a little disappointed when she didn't go. Joslynn is my little buddy during the day. In the morning we do her school work, volunteer at the school, run errands and the afternoon we read books, play games and try to get some chores done. She is my visiting teaching buddy, although that is probably her least favorite activity. I tell Allen that she has a split personality though. She is a delight to be around from the hours of 9-3pm. At that point the other kids are home from school and she sure fights for attention!!! Every weds is preschool day, alternating weeks at other homes for a couple hours. I asked Ashley what Joslynn likes to do, her response "She likes to be the boss"!! Joslynn is the bully of the family. She bosses Kaylynn around, Joslynn only listens to Tyler or Ashley when we are gone. She bullies Kaylynn and Alyssa.. As long as she is given attention, all is well, but if left alone, she will get into mischief! Joslynn can be a sweet girl though. She has a picture of Christ above her bed and if asked, says Jesus' watches over me at night. She loves primary and loves to conduct the music at family home evening. She has her own Book of Mormon that she likes to take to church every week in a little purse. We love her and are very glad to have her spunky, beautiful spirit in our home.

Tyler doubled for the Christmas dance at Sky View High School. A group of kids got together to decorate their shirts, play games and eat prior to the dance. Pictured below are Caleb Oar, Ashley Blair, Robin Christensen, Tyler. They had a fun time and were glad they dropped by for us to see their shirts!!
