Oh my, has it really been three months since we've posted?! I'm a disgrace to the blogging community, aren't I? I'm surprised some of you haven't complained to have us shut down to save space for other committed bloggers. Alright, enough of that; let's catch up!!
Hmmmm...Thanksgiving was spent in New Mexico with family. We're not quite used to being able to just jump into a vehicle and make it to a relative's house in less than ten hours. Christmas was spent here in Colorado with my sister and her family. New Year's was spent with ALL of my family in New Mexico again. We were able to get a full family picture, and those are rare. January came and went. I was able to go to Maryland to spend some time with the Velez's and celebrate Little Javi's 8th birthday with him. It was a wonderful trip where I also got to see many of my friends in Pennsylvania. Especially one very "prego" woman named Lucy. Now it's February and Aaron has just turned 14!!! 14?!?!? He's taller, he's leaner, and now he gets to go to the stake dances. He also just signed up for his high school courses for the fall semester. The middle child getting older makes me feel really old. Thank goodness we still have the twins and they'll never get older and leave us.
James is doing well and would have created a post when his Steelers won the superbowl, but he didn't want to make anyone feel bad...especially a particular someone who admits to getting crabbier by the day. Who knows what she's capable of doing from a long distance!! :)
Sonia (me..I haven't yet hired someone to keep up this blog), is still a seminary teacher. Have I ever mentioned that fact? Oh yes, I am an early morning seminary teacher, and I'm enjoying it. No, really, I am. Who wouldn't enjoy a roomful of Sunbeams on steroids? People think these kids are too tired to give any trouble, HA! Seriously though, I really am enjoying this calling. I never thought I would be any good with teenagers, but Heavenly Father sure knows what he's doing, because I'm getting better! I think. I haven't had any complaints or suggestions in my box. Yet.
I've been reading all of your blogs out there, so know that we are thinking about you all and have silently kept in touch. Please keep up with the Garcia's. We should be easy as you only need to read up on us once every three months! Love and miss you all!!
