Hi everyone. Grandma asked me today to apologize to everyone that starting now, she will no longer be able to send Cards and money to the little ones for Birthdays anymore. She is having a tough time budgeting it all in anymore with our rapidly growing family. She feels very sad about it and is afraid of disappointing everyone. She cannot send out letters in place of them either since her hands do not write like they used to. She did say that she will make birthday calls to everyone though! It would be nice if you all let her know that it is okay, and not to feel bad.
Take care everyone!
Love,
Tammy

Christmas Eve Party
Hi All!
Christmas is fast approaching. We talked to Grandma last night and she wants to start the party at 6:00 p.m. She requested it be at our clubhouse last year but it was taken so this year we've had it reserved since January :). Here is the address:
4853 Woodbridge Dr.
Holladay, UT 84117
For those who haven't been there before Woodbridge Drive is about 1700 East. You access the complex from Kings Row Drive which you get to from Murray Holladay Road (4780 S.) or from 1300 E.
You can call Josh or I or e-mail me for directions if you need more, pocahontas@rockhuggers.com.
Merry Christmas, love you all!

Chris is Home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chris is home! Here is the picture and article that was in the Deseret News the next day. We are so glad to have him home and we are just trying to enjoy having some good quality time together as a family. Thanks for all the support and prayers!
Welcome home for Utah Air Guardsmen
By Lynn Wilde II
Deseret News
After six months of providing security for coalition and noncombatant forces, security for convoys, defending military bases and providing law enforcement duties, 25 Utah Air National Guard airmen came home Saturday from a mission that started on May 16.
The airmen, from the 151st Security Forces Squadron, were late landing at the Utah Air National Guard Base, so family, friends and supporters gathered in a waiting room on base.
"Mommy, where is Daddy?" one boy asked. His mother told him he had to wait for the plane.
While people waited for loved ones, some children ate doughnuts, their smiles made bigger by the frosting. Many of the children wore T-shirts with pictures of their fathers emblazoned on them, proclaiming "My prince has come. I call him daddy," and "My hero."
Brigham Young University fans mingled safely with University of Utah fans — their football rivalry suspended until the plane landed and the airmen returned.
Three generations of one family waited eagerly for Staff Sgt. Geoffrey Neill.
"We're really happy. It's really good timing," said Neill's wife, Jessie, of the return so close to Thanksgiving.
Neill's father, Glen, was happy for his son's return.
"Oh, this is really exciting," he said. "We're glad to get him home."
A voice announced the impending arrival of the C-130.
"Warm up the hugs and kisses," the voice called from the loudspeaker. "They're four minutes out."
A group of bikers, the Patriot Guard Riders, lined up, each holding an American flag, waiting to greet the airmen. They were joined by dignitaries from the base, led by Adj. Gen. Brian Tarbet.
When the plane landed, two firetrucks sprayed an arch of water for the plane to pass through. William Badger of the PGR said the arch was "Air Guard for hello."
After the airmen shook hands with the greeting party and made way for the assembled crowd, the crowd erupted in cheers and whistles.
Staff Sgt. Mike Bechwith met his twin sons, his daughter and wife with a family embrace. His wife couldn't stop crying, too choked up to talk.
One airman, Staff Sgt. Christopher Stevens, was holding his children, Cade, 4, and Savera, 2, in both arms. He said his time in the service was great, but he's not a hero.
"These guys are the real heroes," he said, motioning to his wife, Kristina, and his children, because they held the household together in his absence.
Returning airman Neill said he was "doggone excited" he was home with his family. He returns to a new house, one his wife bought when he was away and has never seen. His daughter, 7-year-old Halley, promised to bake him cookies in her toy oven when they returned home.
Six-year-old Samantha Hooper buried her face in her father's neck, her red eyes telling the tale of her feelings of her airman's homecoming, Tech Sgt. Matt Hooper.
"I'm happy to be home," Hooper said, while Samantha silently cried.

Brendan's X-RAY
My sweet little baby is really hurt. He has a broken arm. Right now he is is a splint and on Wednesday they will do some more x-rays and determine if he has to have surgery or if they can just cast it. He is having a hard time and wants the splint off. As you can imagine he is in a lot of pain. Without going into a lot of detail I ask and hope everyone will keep us in they prayers as we go through this very difficult time. It has been an extreme emotional roller coaster the past few days and I'm not sure when it will end.

Yeah right, I know its hard to see in there, we couldn't get a great picture
to show you all that she is a girl, but during the Ultra sound she showed
