2007

McKenzie Family: 2007 Year-in-Review

Gerald: Enjoys his job immensely, promoted to Senior Associate, travels monthly to St. George to bask in the sun! Loves teaching nursery, there isn't a better calling than playing, snacks, and being called dad by every 3 year old in the ward! (Too bad his 11-year-Old Scouts couldn’t be as well behaved.)

Kathryn: Five kids, 5 soccer teams, 3 schools, Activity Days, and all! Learning she should have been a taxi driver… at least it would pay more!

Caroline: Loving 5th grade Spectrum. Filling her time with chimes, solo in school Christmas Choir, competition soccer, composing music (1st place in school reflections, learning all she can about Laura Ingalls Wilder, and just being a tween!

Jessica: Thinks 4th grades a blast! Friends everywhere, ears pierced, loves to read. Spent her birthday, yet again, at Yellowstone… seeing McKenzie cousins was the best part! Shining at soccer and dancing up a storm!

Susanna: Filling her mind with all the joys of 2nd grade. Too many friends and not enough time to play! Star on her soccer team. Preparing for baptism in the spring!

Jayden: Preschool is nice, but he misses his mom. Soccer is spectacular especially with dad as his coach. Flips on the trampoline and monkey bars have kept mom on the edge of her seat hoping not to have to make a trip to the emergency room!

Andrew: Learning letters, numbers, and anything else his little brain will soak up. Loving alone time with mom, reading books and taking naps. Never seen without at least one car in his hand. Nursery is a favorite and can often be heard yelling “WooHoo” as the family van pulls into the church parking lot Sunday Morning.

As you can see, we are a busy bunch but never too busy to wish you a “Merry Christmas!” We love you and wish you all the best as the New Year falls upon us! Merry Christmas!
