Updates

We need some more recent photos, but these will do for now. Here is Emma with Grandma at Abi's birthday party in Connecticut Nov 2007. Emma has the sweetest personality and seems happy most of the time. She has tons of hair and long eyelashes. She is very polite, and says "Tanks" when you give her something.
The Arveseth's moved back to Salt Lake August 21, and are living downtown until they find a more permanent residence. The photo is Steve and Abi playing on the feild at Rice-Eccles Stadium during Ute Fan Fest, August 23, 2008. Abi is soooo cute, she has the best little voice. She is a great dancer and loves Little Red Rubi-hood.
Jenna, Lydia and Aubrey being cute. Jenna and Aubrey have starting playing T-ball and loving it. Jenna is in 1st grade and Aubrey has one more year of preschool. Lydia thinks she is a five years old and wants to be with the big kids all the time.
This is an old picture of Makayla who is now 18 months old. She loves to dance and sing. She also has to have shoes on all the time. Her favorite word is "ball" and loves being with grandma and grandpa. She also has more hair.
Zachary is crazy as ever, still loves Thomas the Tank Engine and animals. He is also in preschool and LOVES it. He loves leerning about lower case letters and putting them into words.

We are anxiously awaiting Nathans arrival, he is due in 12 days. We know Court and Jake are so excited, and will be great parents. Good Luck!!!

The BIG 6-0!!!

Can you believe it?!?!?! Today is Gary's 60th birthday and he doesn't look (or act) a day over 40! He is so young at heart that it's hard for anyone to believe that he is as old as he is. We're so blessed to have him around and keeping us all feeling young and alive! Happy birthday, We love you!!!
