Christmas Letter 2010

Dear Friends and Family,

Merry Christmas y'all! We have had a good year and hope you did too.

Lydia Kate Leonard was added onto our family on May 6, 2010. She is now 7 months old and crawling.

Erica will be 3 on December 27th and is very excited to be three and joining Primary as a Sunbeam. She loves playing with her dolls and with Paul and Lydia.

Paul is a very active 4 year old. He enjoys being loud, playing with his younger sisters, and older brother, Josh.

Joshua (Josh) turned 7 in September. He is enjoying 1st grade. He likes playing Legos and cars, and riding his bike. He also enjoys playing with his brother and sisters.

Megan turned 9 in November. She enjoys attending Activity Days (with Brittany) and 3rd grade. She still adores horses and enjoys playing soccer with the family.

Brittany is 11 – in 6th grade – and enjoying every minute of it. She enjoys singing in the school and church choirs.

Shawnie stays at home raising the children. She enjoys quilting and sewing, as a matter of fact, she has quilted 2 quilts and accomplished several sewing projects this year. She is a good cook and very helpful with the children (especially the girls). She serves as the 1st Counselor in the Primary presidency.

Kyle has been through a lot since March. He lost his job and thankfully found a new job with AmeriCredit/GM Financial in October. He is the Ward Mission Leader.

Other than a new baby, unemployment, a broken dishwasher, a new job, a new pair of glasses, a brand new school year, and two bike crashes (Brittany & Grandma; Josh & neighbor boy), we have had a pretty normal year (if you call that normal)!

With Love,
The Leonards

(Special thanks to Brittany for crafting our letter this year!)
