Dearest Friends and Family,We hope you are all doing well and your holidays are happy and eventful! 2008 has proved yet another busy year for the Price Family, and looking back we realize once again how blessed we are! Especially to have such wonderful friends and family who are so loving and supportive, we can’t do it without you!
Our sweet little Jentri Ann is growing by leaps and bounds every day. She is so animated, creative, curious, and will steal your heart, so watch out! We can’t believe how fast and how much she’s learned in her short 21 months. Although her first phrase in the morning is usually “watch a movie,” we try to keep her busy doing some of the other things she loves to do: coloring, reading books, running outside (even in the cold), playing with friends and cousins, “helping” mommy with anything and everything, dancing and singing songs, to name a few.She’s been in nursery for three months and still isn’t too keen on the idea. She loves playing with the toys and other kids, just not by herself. She seems to be doing better, so we’ll see. She’s excited for baby sister to come in roughly six weeks! She loves babies and is so gentle and sweet with them. She’s going to be a great big sister!
A little update on the rest of us, Katie is living the high life as a stay at home mo
m. Tiring stuff, but oh so fun! She usually spends her days making peanut butter sandwiches, playing with blocks, and changing diapers. Her calling in Young Women’s keeps her plenty busy, but she’s learned a lot and loves being a part of her girls’ lives. She’s also teaching violin lessons one day a week to spice things up a bit. Winding down on pregnancy #2 is getting exciting! We’re anxious to add another little one to the mix and to see where life takes us from there! We have yet to choose a name for her, but I suppose we’ve still got some time. Hopefully her identity won’t be a mystery for too much longer.Jake’s year has been a busy one. He’s decided that it’s pointless to root for the Aggie football team, and has changed his career path so he can be a Cougar. This fall he started his Masters Degree in Civil Engineering, and is now working for a civil firm, RB&G in Provo. Earlier this year he felt strongly that he needed to leave RMC but wasn’t sure why. The big round of layoffs two weeks later confirmed it was time for a change. His time at home is scarce these days, but Jen & I love to see him whenever we get the chance. On top of it all he teaches the 14-16 year olds in Sunday school, and loves doing that.
That’s us in a nutshell! Enjoy the Holidays, and know that we love and appreciate you! We’re also grateful to be able again to celebrate the birth of our Savior. He lives! May He be a constant guide in our lives!
Merry Christmas! Love Always,
Jake, Kate, Jentri, and Baby Price
