Today Zach played a pretty good basketball game. His Ohio State Buckeye team is very good and they haven’t lost a game yet (they have tied one however).

SARAH GOT HER MISSION CALL TODAY!!!! We were SO excited! She set up a time tonight where she had all of her friends over to her apartment (it was packed), and we got on Skype to watch her open her call. She was very emotional as she opened it… California Ventura Spanish-Speaking! She couldn’t have

Today was a very pivotal day in the life of the Halliday family. We made the final decision that we are going to move. I still have to talk to my Director and hopefully he’ll be good with it. If so, we’ll put the house on the market in 2 weeks and look to move

Today was spent shopping and playing. The girls went shopping and left the little ones with Scott and me. We took them to the park by Still Middle School and they played outside until they couldn’t feel their faces. We then took them back home and had some hot chocolate and once they were thawed
Merry Christmas Everyone! Today we had a wonderful and relaxing Christmas! The kids were all so excited to have Christmas morning with their cousins! … and they couldn’t wait to get downstairs to see what Santa had brought them. It was hard enough to get the little ones to sit still for this picture! 🙂
