Christmas Race

I cannot believe it has been another year...I ran this last year and it was soo much fun. This year was soo cold and snowy, I was a little nervous. My neighbor friend Holly and I talked ourselves into it and went for it. We had a great time and it is a fun way to start the Christmas Holiday! The problem is afterwards you stuff your face with soup, bagels, and cookies..all your hard work goes down the drain!!!

Christmas Letter

Merry Christmas
From
The Edwards
Here is my rendition of a family letter . I am telling you all that I am being “green” and saving paper by emailing our Christmas letter….or is it just that I am procrastinating??? You all can come up with your own answer to that ! Here is what our family has been up to the past year!

Troy is still working for Stryker medical and is really enjoying it. He has grown his territory and enjoys going into the Hospitals and meeting new people. His territory is all of Southern Idaho. He is usually on the road for a couple of days a month. He gets to work from home which can be a good thing and bad. He is enjoying Hockey and plays quite a bit during the month and travels to McCall to play on the Mountaineer team up there.

Rachel just made the move to the new Rocky Mountain High. It is right across the street and is now on time on most days! I am a counselor and feel lucky to have a great job I love. I was granted a scholarship to start my School Administration Specialist. So I started school again for the 3rd time. It has been a little crazy, but a good experience.

Avery started kindergarten this year at Paramount Elementary. She loves school and is doing very well. Her teacher says she is a leader in class and friendly to everyone, but, sometimes can be a little chatty….(who did she learn that from ) She has been involved in singing and dancing lessons and is a performer! She also loves swimming and is a wonderful big sister to Marley.

Marley is a feisty little girl who is always into something. She has a little bit of a temper and an attitude in her. She will definitely fight for what she wants! She loves Avery and will do whatever Avery does, until she wants something Avery has ,and then it becomes a fight. Marley is starting to realize she is funny and will do whatever for a laugh.
Hope you all have a wonderful Holiday Season and Happy New Year!
Troy, Rachel, Avery, and Marley

Let it Snow!!

I am the worst mother!!! We have never really had snow clothes! I have now finally bought our kids snow pants...I know how horrible is that to never have had winter gear living in Idaho! We never get that much snow, so I never really thought about it! But, after our initial snow and everyone was playing outside in their snow pants.....i went and got them some! Avery had a fit because she did not want to wear clothes under them and Marley won't wear anything if Avery does not....soo, they are hanging in the closets.....but they have them!

Christmas Show

Avery had a great time singing and dancing at her Christmas concert! She is a performer! As you can see Marley is a little one herself too....she had a great time in the audience with her sunglasses!
