In every conceivable manner, the family is link to our past, bridge to our future.

good things

A baby is God's opinion that the world should go on.
Carl Sandburg

good things

Call it a clan, call it a network, call it a tribe, call it a family: Whatever you call it, whoever you are, you need one.
Jane Howard

good things

If you as parents cut corners, your children will too. If you lie, they will too. If you spend all your money on yourselves and tithe no portion of it for charities, colleges, churches, synagogues, and civic causes, your children won't either. And if parents snicker at racial and gender jokes, another generation will pass on the poison adults still have not had the courage to snuff out.
Marian Wright Edelman

good things

To nourish children and raise them against odds is in any time, any place, more valuable than to fix bolts in cars or design nuclear weapons.

December 22, 2007

Yay! The Jenson family has a blog now! :) I'll keep everyone updated on what we are doing and how we all are!

We are all done with all of our Christmas shopping finally! We've mailed away our present to Melanie's mom, and finished our present for Marc and Stori. This year, we are going to go to Marc and Stori's house for Christmas. Christmas eve will be spent at Cooper's uncle Steve's, where most of the Jenson family will be. It will be great, since most of them have not met Marcus yet! Christmas night, we will be going to our good friend's house, the Hundrups, who are making a wonderful authentic Dutch dinner for her daughter Helen, her childeren, Marc and Stori, and their kids. It is always a great dinner!

Then, on the 26th, we will be flying to Maui to spend New Years. We will be soaking up the sun and enjoying the beach and shopping until January 6th, when we will be heading back to Utah. :)
