Dear
Family & Friends,
We hope
all is well with you and your families.
It has been an amazing year. As we
have looked back, we realized it has been a “milestone” year. We have been truly blessed and grown in so
many different ways. We thought it would
be fun to share some of our highlights.
Jessica
turned 16 years old and is a junior at Bingham High School. She has officially started dating, and
received her driver’s license. She is
excelling in school, and did an amazing job drawing a life size picture of the
human skeletal system for her anatomy class.
Ammon is
14 years old and is in 8th grade. He played football again this year
on the 8th grade A team. Early
in the season he broke his leg, yet still attended practice. He was able to play the latter half of the
season helping his team win the championship for the 8th
graders. Ammon also was able to be
ordained a teacher in November. Happy Days! J
Amanda
is 8 years old. She was baptized in September. She was so excited for the day! J She is in 3rd grade and was able to participate in
her school talent show. She sang her
first solo singing a famous song from the movie, “Frozen” called, “Do You Want
to Build a Snowman”. She did an amazing
job!
Kaitlyn
has officially turned 6 years old this month and is asking for her two front
teeth for Christmas. She loves
Kindergarten and gets excited to do her homework. She is learning to read and does a great job
sounding out words.
Bryce
turned 1 year old! He is a happy little
guy and loves playing with any kind of ball.
He even has a pretty good throw!
He loves to give hugs and kisses.
He is keeping us all busy getting into everything and yet always willing
to pull out the broom and dust pan. J
His most common words he can say are:
mama, dada, ball, bye, hi, more, and milk.
Roy and
I had our 10 year anniversary in April.
We had fun going to the Hines Mansion, getting massages, eating sushi
for dinner, and enjoying time together.
We ended the next day going to the gym to get a good workout. J
Roy
officially turned 40 years old last month.
He is working at eBay and received an Oscar for the NL IVR Project. He
competed this Fall in his body building competitions. He competed in the Utah Pro Bowl (came in 2nd
place in Overall), Team USA’s in Las Vegas, and finished at the Natural Olympia
in San Diego getting his Pro Card. When all was said and done people were
getting his autograph. Not only did he
compete, but he trained. Our team LRC
(Lean, Ripped, & Cut) had 5 different divisions (Teenage, Physique, Figure,
Bikini, and Bodybuilding). Every member placed with trophies!
Linda
(me) turned 41 last month. In my 40th
year I officially graduated in May from Stevens-Henager College with her
Bachelors in Business Administration. All
the 2 ½ years of non-stop school paid off when I received a promotion to be the
Financial/Human Resource Specialist. I
jumped out of my comfort zone, and competed with Roy in his competitions. It was quite the journey of hard work and
discipline. I was actually surprised to
come home with some metals (not too bad for the first time). J
We wish
you all a Merry Christmas and an Amazing New Year!
Love,
The Critchfield Family
