Merry Christmas and a
Happy New Year!
This year has been wonderful and we
would like to wish all of our friends and family the best and give you an
update on our lives. Our biggest news is that we are expecting a new addition
to our Family in July. Emily is convinced that it will be a girl. Aaron thinks
that there is a 50/50 chance that it will be a boy or a girl. We are very
excited to be parents! It will be an adventure!
In May we went camping near Swan
Valley, Idaho and hiked to the Lower Palisades Lake. It was great weather and
the mountains were beautiful.
In August we went to Yellowstone
with the Vernon Family and had a great time going on hikes, boating, playing
games and spending time with Family.
Emily graduated from beauty school in January and
has been working full-time at Great Clips in Idaho Falls. She enjoys cutting
hair and does a great job at it. She has also been taking some online classes
from BYU-Idaho and will begin taking classes on campus in January. Emily ran
her first race this year and it was a half-marathon. She did great and
persevered until the end of the race. She wants to do another one and improve
her time. Emily has found a new hobby of doing crafts. She has made some
amazing fall and Christmas decorations. She is a humanitarian aid assistant in
our ward so she has been busy this year! She is excited to fulfill her dream of
becoming a mom.
Aaron has been going to school full
time and will graduate with a Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Physiology in
April. He has applied to a few Physical Therapy Schools and is waiting to hear
back. He continues to work with Disabled adults when he isn’t too busy with
school. He also ran his second half-marathon. He enjoys playing basketball and
racquetball with his brother Chad who is also attending BYU-Idaho. He is
excited to be a Dad!
Snuggles is now 13 years old and is
doing great! She will be jealous once the baby is born. Snuggles lives for
attention from Emily and loves to cuddle. Aaron has given Snuggles a new
nickname: Snoogs. It is pronounced “Snewgs.”
We hope all is well and that we can
remember the reason for the season!
Love,
Aaron and Emily Vernon and Snuggles
One day I cam home and found out we are expecting a baby! It was very exciting. Emily decorated the door all nice and it was really cool!
We played the game of Bang! With our friends.
We went to my Grandma's Funeral and were able to remember her amazing life. She was a great Grandma.
I got to be a pall bearer.
This was the dinner my Uncle Scott's ward put on for us after the Funeral.
The whole Family... except for Cory who is on his mission in Brazil:)
