Joys of Winter

By -

Unlike my mom, I LOVE SNOW and I LOVE WINTER SPORTS!!! I have always enjoyed the snow. In fact, I remember the first time my family went away for Christmas to somewhere where there wasn't snow. I was utterly disappointed! I am very happy that I now live in a city full of snow and fun! My mom always tells us we're grounded for saying that we like snow, but after the snow sports start up, It's definitely worth it. Talon and I went skiing at the Canyons last week. I took a day off from teaching (sore throat coming on... I needed some fresh air :) ) and we went down and skiied and then visited his family.


Then, lucky for us, yesterday we went to opening day at Beaver Mountain with Melanie and Dustin. I didn't get any good pictures of anyone skiing (hopefully those are coming after tomorrow), but the ride home was fun!





I hope this encourages you all to more more avid fans of winter sports!

I'm afraid nothing in the world could encourage me to pick up winter sports again. Besides, they're not as easy to access in Berkeley. Hope the rest of your holidays goes well.
Best,
Ben

She's here!

Hello Family and Friends! If you haven't heard yet, our little baby girl Adalyn was born Tuesday, March 15th at about 2pm. She was born by emergency C-section (they knocked Nicole all the way out because there wasn't time for anything else) and was under a lot of distress. After a wonderful blessing from her Grandpa Hicken and Daddy she was life flighted to McKay-Dee Hospital in Ogden. She is still in the NICU there but is making great strides each and every day.  Her mommy and daddy named her Adalyn Julene Anderson-- after her great grandma Anderson (Julene). She has already blessed their lives immensely and she has benefited so much from prayers and fasts of family and friends. She has a long road ahead of her, but she is a fighter! Her grandpa Hicken calls her his little Millie- because she is a miracle baby and in Spanish, miracle is Milagro. She is a miracle and we are so happy to have her.  Love you all!

Delivery Day

By -
Well folks- it's D-Day! After talking some more and discussing with us- our doctors (a team of OBs and Perinatologists) have decided that it is best for baby boy not to have any risks with the placenta and come today. So- He's going to be very early- they will have completed the steroids though, so that is helpful. But we all feel that this is the very best thing for HIM. I'll have a c-section- hopefully regular this time- this afternoon and we will have a baby boy by this evening. He will go straight to the NICU and we'll just see how he does to know more about how long he will be there. Again, thank you all for your comments, prayers, texts, phone calls. We appreciate all of you and your love and support for us! Love you all- remember we are in His hands. And who's better to be in.
