Merry Christmas from
the
Stanford Family 2013
Maelie is
9 and in 4th grade. She was
in the school spelling bee and was voted the class representative. She has enjoyed reading Harry Potter this
year and just finished #5. She has
enjoyed her musical theater class and did awesome in her performance. She also
still enjoys piano lessons. Her favorite
things to do are sing and do anything crafty.
She is a fantastic biggest sister and the peacemaker in our home.
Kyla is almost 8 and in 2nd
grade. She has done awesome with the
transition to a new school this year and made lots of new friends. She has also started to read Harry Potter and
just finished #1. She has loved taking
Trampoline and Tumbling for the past 4 months.
She has mastered her front flip and is now working on a back flip. She also enjoys being in musical theater this
year and was the cutest little Rudolph in her show where she sang her first
solo. She is looking forward to her
baptism in February!
Jaxon is
5 ½ and started kindergarten this year.
He loves his teacher and his new friends at school. He is doing so awesome and learning so much
about letters and numbers and is so close to counting to 100 on his own! He says his favorite word is the. J His favorite thing to do is practice his
sight words with Sharpie, everywhere! He
loves to play with toys, go to the park, and ride his bike. He is looking forward to trying out tee ball
in the spring.
Canyon is 2 and definitely a curious little
guy! He has broken our TV, put a hole in
our wall, and given his mom a cause for eye surgery but we love him
anyway. It’s a good thing he is cute or
we would have sent him back a long time ago!
He is starting to talk and it is so fun to hear him say new words. His newest words are uh oh, help, juice, and
I love you. He loves his Transformers,
cars and trains. His favorite thing to
do is go to the park and swing. He is a
fast little runner!
This past summer we moved from Chandler to Gilbert and
are loving our new home but also still miss parts of our old home and
area. Jonas has finished one semester of
his MBA - 5 more to go! He is still
working at Orbital Sciences but has changed titles from Mechanical Engineer to
Software Design Engineer. He keeps busy
teaching Kyla’s primary class and I (Mistie) get to be a Wolf Den Leader in the
Cub Scouts. We are looking forward to
going to Canada for Jonas’ little brother’s wedding the day after
Christmas! Brrrrr!!!
We
love each of you and feel so blessed to have you in our lives. We hope that you have a fabulous Christmas
and a happy 2014!!
