Christmas Card 2011

2011 has been a year of changes for us. We turned into a family of four with the birth of our little Luke William, last Christmas Eve. He was quite the Christmas surprise! Luke is an angel baby. His is a good balance to Carson’s wildness. He loves to sit and watch his big brother play and is a really good sport when Carson plays a little too rough!  Luke is good at entertaining himself. He just learned how to climb up the stairs and is very proud of himself. Luke is a snuggler. He loves to cuddle and hug and kiss and is just the happiest little guy.

Carson just turned three and is a ball of energy! He loves to climb, run, and jump on anything and anyone. He has been in speech for the last six months and has started pre-school this month. His speech is improving every day and he is so excited to start school! Carson learned to swim this summer and can swim from one end of the pool to the other. A few of Carson's favorite things are; Go Diego Go, Toy Story, library books, candy, nursery at church,  playgroups, the beach, snuggling with Mom and Wrestling with Dad.

Steve continues to enjoy working for Shell Oil. We feel very blessed that he has a good, secure job. He is back in Young Men’s at church and working with the 14-15 year-old boys (all 16 of them). He got some water skiing in this season, but not nearly enough, in his opinion.

I’ve adjusted pretty well being a Mom of two. It is crazy how busy they keep me! I was released from Young Women’s President when Luke was born and am now a Relief Society instructor.  I am lucky to have great girlfriends here and enjoy all the girl time Steve lets me have.

We wish each of you a wonderful and joyous holiday season as we celebrate the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ.  Love, The Bonners
