We had a Great Christmas!!





Thanks to all Brian's hard work before surgery, and the help of family and some random person we all had a great Christmas at our house. Everyone got what they wanted and I even got a great new camera. The most important part was being together and all healthy. But thanks to Mr Smith's friend who left us a gift on Thanksgiving night. We will have to pay your generosity forward next year. Happy New Year everyone!! May we all be happy healthy and very loved in the year to come!!

MCKELLAR FAMILY CHRISTMAS!


We had a great Christmas at my Parent's house. Everyone was home, no boys on missions. Everyone gave great gifts, and everyone seemed to really like what they got. Thanks to everyone for your thought and effort for our gifts. Can't wait to go away to the Anniversary Inn, with no kids. Thanks Jeri Dawn and Jason, they even arranged the babysitter!!! Thanks mom and dad for the hard work you put in to all our gifts. We had a great day, even if my brother's are crazy. MERRY CHRISTMAS! (For some reason I have no pictures of Sierra, Mialee, and Boston by themselves, but they had a great time also.)

Should have bought that SNOWBLOWER!!!






Brian wanted to get a snowblower after last years snow. But I told him if we bought one it wouldn't snow and it would be a waste of money. Well I didn't know then that he would be out of commission this winter season, and me and Jordan would have to do it. Hindsight is 20-20. Maybe next year we will get one and won't have to use it. Happy snow everyone.


By the way HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO MY MOM AND DAD!!

Tingey Family Christmas Party


On Monday night we had Brian's family Christmas Party. It had been scheduled and cancelled twice. So once we found out that Merick was going to be out of the hospital it was scheduled within hours. We missed Kevin and Lara and their girls - they are snowed in at Bear Lake. And we also missed Catrina and her kids, Dallas, Kahri and Brayden. It was fun to see Santa and Great Grandma. Merry Christmas

Happy 3rd Birthday Hayden!









Happy birthday to my little Hayden. Hayden is a very stubborn boy. I wanted him to wait to come until after Christmas, but he had a mind of his own, and came 15 days early on the 20th. He came so fast that his little face was bruised from the fast delivery(I didn't notice it, until I saw the pictures later) and he has been doing things his own way since. He is hilarious and mischevious, and quite the daredevil. He wanders at night, so we must make sure he is asleep before we finally go to bed. You can't convince him to do anything he doesn't want to do. As crazy as he is, we can't picture our family without him. WE LOVE YOU LITTLE MAN!!!

Brian and Christina are both doing really well. The kidney is working awesome for her and she is almost within normal readings for some of her levels. Thank you to everyone for your prayers and love. Hope to be home soon!

SURGERY DAY!

Tingey family minus 3 siblings and spouses and 9 grandchildren

SURGERY DAY! It seemed like it couldn't get here fast enough for Christina's sake(she had to start diaylsis) but it has got here too fast for me. We are headed to the hospital very soon. Kids be good for Grandma and Nicole! We love you and will be thinking about you.
