Twitchell Family Newsletter 2008
Wow! I can't believe Christmas is almost here! This year seemed to zoom by! We had a wonderful family trip to Disneyland this year. The first time ever! The Gifford's were there too! After five days we were exhausted yet Jaden kept wanting to go back and go on Star Tours!
Andrew our youngest, is a wonderful delight! He keeps mom so busy!! He's active and loves getting into everything! He loves to golf (which consists of using a plastic bowling pin as a club and hitting the golf ball ) He also loves balls of all kinds! He enjoys kicking the ball, throwing the ball and playing catch! He has such a cute smile and laugh! And of course, he loves chasing and playing with Jaden and Shayla.
Jaden is enjoying going to a new school and is in 1st grade. He is at the top of his class in math. His teacher says he gets done quick and keeps telling the other kids to hurry up so they can correct the problems. He is big into golf! He love Tiger Woods' 09 on the xbox. He also enjoys playing baseball and is excited to play pony ball little league this spring! And like all brothers, he enjoys torturing Andrew.
Shayla is in 3rd grade this year. Her teacher says she's and excellent student and enjoys her in class. Shayla has also been involved with brownie girl scouts, activity days and a Sing and Dance group. She does 2 big performances one tomorrow and another in June! She enjoys reading, cooking and lately is big into weaving potholders,knitting and cross-stitching. She was also baptized this June by her Daddy.
Meagan is enjoying junior high. She's made some new friends and had a fun birthday sleepover party! She still loves reading and has been big into the Twilight series and movie. She loves writing to and posts her work on some of the Twilight fan fiction sites.
Tami is very busy being a mom on the go! With the kids at 3 different schools across town she does lots of carpooling and chauffeuring kids to activities and school. This year with Joanne Taylor, she made around 40 pounds of chocolates this holiday season. She still enjoys scrap booking and card making whenever she gets a chance and is busy teaching Jaden's primary class of 8 boys and 2 girls!
Larry is staying with Chrysler and opted not to take the buy out package. He has performed well and hopes to continue to move up in his career. He loves playing xbox with Jaden and spending time with our family whenever he can. He is also busy as the Ward Missionary assigned to the Elder's Quorum.
We wish each and everyone of our friends and family members a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Love,
Larry, Tami, Meagan, Shayla, Jaden and Andrew Twitchell
As of Today, Jan.4 ,2009, Tami received quite the shock as she was called to be the 1st Counselor in the Rocklin 3 ward Relief Society Presidency. Especially since she only was able to go to RS once, because she was called again to Primary when the ward boundaries changed. She's excited to go back to Relief Society once again!
