Griffiths Family Christmas Party

Wow, what a fun party. Instead of all trying to get together on Christmas we got together for my dads 52nd birthday and for our family Christmas Party. On Thanksgiving we drew names so when we got together, instead of waiting till Christmas, we opened them up.


Landon sang "Grandma Got Ran Over By A Reindeer"........classic


I had played O Holy Night, a few hours earlier in church, so I played it again for my family.This is the first time I have heard Shari play the piano. She did a great job.

Ruby started taking violin lessons about 6 months ago, and has become really good at it.Jared sang the cutest version that I have ever heard of "Winter Wonderland"

Even Chaddy sang a christmas song as he jammed on the piano.
For my dads birthday he got a new cowboy hat. He has had this other one for years and wore it to many scout trips. It was time for a new one.

This was the day before, a pre-party. Our street never gets plowed so the boys decided to have fun while they could.

Ellie and Jared Mecham

November 13, 2009 Ellie and Jared were sealed in the Ogden Temple for time and all eternity. It was such a fun day. It was really neat to see all five siblings with our spouses sitting by each other in the temple.






Jared made the cutest song for my wedding when I got married. He sang that at his wedding along with another way cute song he came up with for he and Ellie.It didn't take Jared long to get that guarder off, with his mouth :)

Ellie and Jared are so cute together. Their kids will be adorable.

Everything Happens For a Reason

This isn't the easiest thing to write about, but here it goes. Landon and I went into the doctors for the 12 week appointment, he was doing the ultra sound to find out that there was no heart beat. The baby was measuring at 10 weeks. It was definitely something that I was not expecting. It was difficult to hear, though, my Doctor was really nice about the whole thing and made sure I knew I had done nothing wrong. I know several girls that this has happened to lately. Landon told me that maybe the 2nd coming is almost here so all these spirits need bodies. I know I can't see the whole plan, but I do know everything will be ok. I have good family and friend support and we have been dealing with it pretty well, although it still is not an easy thing to have happen.
