Wow, its been SUCH a long time since I'm written on here & whelp I think I need to get back in the race & give blogging another shot. Life just gets so busy as a YSA & this Fall wasn't any better. A few quick updates & then we'll get to the meat of the message....

 Yep Skyler got his mission call on September 21st to the

Mendoza Argentina mission speaking Spanish. 

 I miss this guy SO much! I know that once you hit a 5 month mark of someone being out, the rest of the 

time just flies by so until then its beasty hard. I know he is where he is supposed to be though. 

Its so wonderful to hear from him on a weekly basis & its always an added treat when he writes me a personal letter. However, I dont' know who taught him how to write but he has the typical "chicken scratch" handwriting. Its just charming. Funny guy.

This will be our last family photo until...well quite possibly until at least 2015. Can you believe that? I surely can't, that just seems like such a LONG ways away!! And that's only because Keaton will be submitting his papers in a year so they definitely won't see each other for 3 years. crazy! They have just grown up so blasted fast. I mean, clearly they are SO much taller than me. But they know that I can tinkle them & take them down any day :) I love the doctrine of eternal families because through that I can know that I will always be with my dear family. Love them.
