A Day in the Life

A Day in the Life of the Pages

Brian:  I missed getting a picture on the 19th--so here's a couple from the 20th!  Kathy and I did baptisms at the temple this morning.  Then we went skiing for the first time this winter!  It's great being on winter break!

Kathy:  I served a six-hour shift at the temple today!

Ty:  We said a sad farewell to Eliza’s gingerbread house tonight.  It was a solemn affair.  We each said something we would miss about it, gave it a final loving touch, and sang a farewell.

Michelle:  I helped Calvin teach our Thursday Night Ugly Sweater FHE lesson about the birth of Jesus Christ. He did a great job telling us there was a baby Jesus, a mom, a dad, and some animal sounds. He also demonstrated the sounds of an angel singing.

Afton:  Today at school my class and all of 2nd grade traveled from classroom to classroom. Each classroom was a different country. Germany was focused on Christmas markets and we decorated paper mugs. In Israel we made a menorah for Hanukkah.  In Mexico we made a paper flower and put it on a pencil but I lost it. In The United States, we weaved a mat for Kwanzaa. And I made a paper suitcase and passport, and we had to show the passport to each teacher so we could get in.

Eliza:  I learned how to whistle today and nobody taught me. I just tried to whistle and then I got it.

Kathryn:  I have pink eye. I didn’t get to go to preschool all week. I’m sad that I didn’t get to go.

Calvin:  I lost a toy in the small opening under the fridge. But don’t worry, I got it back. And found an extra.

Josh:  My family all together at the Christmas program.

Elizabeth:  Snuggling my Ellie while all the little kids perform at Layla's Christmas program.

Layla:  Performing at my preschool Christmas program!

Ellie:  Never letting go of my binky.

Joseph:  I had my very first appointment with a muscular dystrophy specialist today.

Jayna:  I got a cool new shirt because I donated blood.  I was an "amazing, superb donor."

Dallin:  Flank said there would be juice boxes and cookies!

Courtney:  Love being in Utah with the fam!!
