Matt Riding in Mexico

Matt spent a week in Mexico riding the rhino around. The following is a YouTube link of his trip. It is a long video so you will need to give it time to buffer before you can play it.

The Lastest and Greatest

Since the last post we made it through Christmas as the best parents ever (the kids each got a DS and the family got a Wii), spent New Year's Eve with friends and on January 8th Matt and I celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary in San Francisco (thanks mom for watching the kids).

The kids are doing good in school and have more energy then we can handle at times. Work is work and every other week it seems like there is another budget cut. We are just grateful to have our jobs (we are both still working for the City). We are very blessed and thank the Lord each and everyday!!! There is no big news just normal everyday family issues that we all survive.

That was the lastest and the greatest on the Buckles.

Family Update

Due to the fact that Facebook has taken over my life, blogging was put to the side. Here is a quick update on what is going on with the Buckles...

In August Kyle started Kindergarten and Renae is now in 2nd grade. They both love it and are doing great. Here are a few pictures of the first day of school.

In November Renae hit a BIG birthday...8...she was Baptized and Confirmed a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. It was so heartwarming to see her get into the water with her father and then have her father put his hands on her head to give her the Holy Ghost.

Now Renae did have to put her own twist on her Baptism. She refused buy a white dress as her Baptism dress. She went with a black with white poka dots and hot pick bow dress. It was so her. She did wear her aunt Melanie's baptism dress to get baptized in and that was good with me.

That is about it for now. I hope everyone has a Happy Holiday Season!!!

Creative Cousin

I promised my cousin I would post this back in May. My cousin Rachel and her husband have designed jewelry, key chains, pins and all kinds of stuff for Deseret Book and there own own business (PointEmblems.com). You can find the following at DeseretBook.com (type Point Emblems in the search bar) or visit your local Desert Book I saw them there last week in the store. I think you all will find the items just as cute as I did. I love to give my family kudos and this deserves a big one...WAY TO GO RACHEL and BRIAN!!!!!

CTR ear rings and necklaces. They even have Ladybug ones that are too cute for words.
