Winter Boiseland

Ever since the night of Dad's funeral when the snow started falling, it has not stopped! Now that our lakes will be full...waterskiing, here we come!!!!!

Hi family,

Things have been really crazy around here these days. Jillian always has tons of homework, which i find crazy for a first grader. I'm taking anatomy and accelerated English for my future bachelors degree, i have sooooo much homework i have forgotten what fun is. Eden is also taking two online college courses as well, human development and pre- algebra. Eric has been out of work for the past two months and needs to get a job! Jared has made a drastic change recently, he has joined the Army reserves and will be going to basic training in 30 to 45 days, he will be gone for 9 weeks.were hoping this change will be a good change for our family.Hey Caleb and Suzy i was wondering how hard it would be for you to get a Idaho phone number so we could talk more often? I really enjoyed the slides of dad, he sure was a handsome man. I think about him everyday and miss him terribly, life is never going to be the same without him, he was the glue that held this family together and i find myself lacking direction without his words of encouragement and love. i love you all very much,

Wendy

Remembering Dad

Quote from Dad about Grandpa

I just found a binder that Dad put together of Grandpa Lakey called "Life and Times". The very last sentence was a quote that Dad wrote about Grandpa that I think is the exact same way we feel about Dad. He said "Most of all we love him for the strength that we've gained for tomorrow by feasting on yesterday with Dad." Dad always knew how to phrase it just right.
Love you all,
Liz

MERRY CHRISTMAS to ALL!!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. It was beyond what words can describe to see everyone again. We love you all!! We wish we could see you more. This time of the year is a wonderful time to remember the things that mean the most to us. It's wonderful to feel the spirit, think of family and spend good quality time. I hope you all enjoy he CD's if they dont work on your DVD player try them on your computer. It was picture overload and they sometimes freeze on older DVD players. Love all of you!!!

We Love You DAD!!

Here's to the Best Dad in the whole world! We're all going to miss you!
Love, Caleb and Suzy

Weinachsmarkt auf Deutschland!!!

I went to Dresden and saw the famous church that was bombed in WWII and recently restored within the lat 15 years... Frauenkirchen. Or in english the Woman's church.

I also went to the Freiberg Temple, but only for a picture, we unfortunately did not get to attend a session.

We also went to Seiffen where all of the wooden figures and pyramids (nativity scenes) are made. It was a cute town. The yellow church is the famous building in Seiffen. Picturesque.
I went with 5 other ladies from our ward. We had a good time and spent a lot of money!
Caleb did not get to come with me. He would have hated walking around the christmas market for 7 hours one day and 5 the next in the freezing cold. You will see a picture of me and other ladies warming up by the outdoor warmers.
-I would love to go to these markets with some of my sisters-in laws. They are so fun.
Love to ALL,
Suzy
