Merry Christmas 2007



Merry Christmas

As 2007 comes to a close, we are so thankful for a happy family and a comfortable home. We have been blessed with wonderful friends and a loving family. We are so thankful for you! May we each feel the love of our Savior Jesus Christ this holiday season.

Here are some of our favorite things about 2007:

Tyler turned 2 this year. He is growing up so fast! He likes outings to the library with Mom and Justin to pick out books and seeing the ducks and geese afterwards. He loves to play games, ride on trains, and play with Justin. Tyler is quite the artist and we find his masterpieces on the walls, furniture and the kitchen floor. He likes to wear his “nursery clothes and nursery shoes” each Sunday for church. He gets so excited to help Mom cook and to wrestle with Dad.

Justin turned 5 this year and enjoyed a birthday party at his favorite park. He loves everything about kindergarten! He likes to ride on the bus each day with his friends. Justin’s favorites were eating pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving in Utah, feeding Gunnar treats in Montana (Grandpa Guptill’s black lab), flying on the airplane and getting “Oregon water and Oregon snacks” and “One more thing, I love you Mom!”

Kayelynn loved to see snow falling in Oregon on December 1st! She enjoyed trips to the Oregon coast, visiting family in Utah and Montana, blogging, teaching primary on Sundays and planning for the activity day girls. She looks forward to many more lunch hour bike rides and picnics with Travis and the boys.

Travis liked going on a father and son campout with Justin, fishing with the boys and both grandpas, giving the boys bedtime rocket rides up the stairs and horseback rides around the house. He enjoyed celebrating both an anniversary and a birthday in Hawaii with Kayelynn, snorkeling for the first time, family outings to the zoo, Fourth of July fireworks and business trips to Japan, Korea and Taiwan.

Best wishes for a Happy New Year,
The Guptills
Travis, Kayelynn, Justin and Tyler
