So yeah, this is Shalyse, since my mom doesn't update her blog EVER since I set it up for her I figured I would do it for her this time and hopefully I can train her better and get her blogging. Anywho, I haven't done anything since Christmas so A LOT has happened since then. In January Mitchell turned 18, it's crazy he will be able to turn his papers in so soon for his mission. He is growing up so much my baby brother. (sniff, sniff) Hunter got surgery on his shoulder and is doing pretty good. He will have to do physical therapy for a while and not much with sports till he's in prime condition. Tori is single and searching for that perfect major hunky dunk. Ha, ha just teasing Tori. Love you. She is starting college. She still not quite sure what she wants to major in but figured she better get the pre recs out of the way since they need do be done anyways. Me I'm just peachy, as you can tell I actually update my blog. Ha, ha. Mom has been crazy busy with girls camp and her spoiled kids (us) and her spoiled rotten grandbaby. She has been missing her sister Cyni who officially moved to Texas with her family. They had an opportunity with business out there and they took it. They are doing good as far as I know. We miss them so much but are lovin hanging out in their pool. ha ha. (even though we hung out in there pool when they were here) Dad as been workin hard on Houston Trucking. That's basically the scoop on us. Birthdays, Weddings, Family Reunions, Traveling, Packing, Saying Good byes, Graduations, and Swimming. Hopefully it won't be another six months until I get her to update her blog.

ta ta for now,

Shalyse

So we've had a lot happen. Christmas was great and we got to go to a ton of family parties. Santa gave everyone awesome goodies this year!

Shalyse and Chase blessed Kael on January 4th.

Then the very next morning I drove Tori to Idaho. (sniff, sniff) She is living in Rexburg by BYU. She isn't attending school but her cousin is. She just wanted some change so she moved up there close to where her cousin is and living with three other girls in an apartment. She is freezing her butt off, but enjoying her time there. I'm so proud of her!! Love you babe! 

Me and Shalyse took Kael to the Wildlife Zoo for the first time with his cousins. I think me and Shalyse had more fun than he did. :)

We are enjoying being Grandparents and seeing our lil' Kael all the time. We miss Tori (even Hunter and Mitchell) hehe. Mitch just turned 18 on Jan. 14th, only a year to go before his mission. He is also getting close to graduating from Mesa High Hunter is getting close to finishing his last year in Jr. High. So crazy my baby is going to be in High School!! Hunter is pretty bummed about his shoulder though. He played football this year for Taylor and hurt his shoulder. His is going to have to have surgery, so this possibly means no baseball this year. He is doing track though and has been practicing for that. 

Well "Life is Good" in the Houston household.

That's all for this month's update
