Even Sasha got some presents, a duck toy,
doggy treats, she was really excited.

Apryl's first snow

Yeah, it did snow in St. George. The picture was actually taking in Leeds, UT, they seemed to have more snow than St. George. Apryl really enjoyed to play in the snow.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year !!

Best wishes to everyone,....from

Forrest, Carla and Apryl

What does Apryl want for Christmas?

I think that Apryl wants a new Piano for Christmas, because she loves to play with anything that has keys, keyboards, ect. Lets wait and see what Santa is going to bring her.

Work Christmas Dinner

We went to the Texas Road House for our Christmas party from my work. We had a really good time with everybody.
