Everything Else (3 of 3)

In other news...I got a new job or I guess I should say another job. On Tuesday I am beginning to teach two adjunct math courses at CWI. I am super excited as teaching college has always been a goal of mine. It is not Harvard but it is a step closer, I think. Tate also got a promotion at work. He is now the principal of the new alternative school that Melba has started. We are so excited for our new jobs and enjoy all of the opportunities that life has brought us lately. In Sawyer news, he has become quite skilled with using a fork. We have also begun potting training him. The first few attempts were unsuccessful as he peed on the floor but he is now starting to enjoy sitting on his little potty. On another note, we got a new living room set and a new car. We have had a wonderful year this year and thank Heavenly Father for everything that we have been blessed with! Here are a few more random pictures for your enjoyment!!!





New Year's (2 of 3)

On New Year's Eve we had our annual Leavitt Cookie Cook-off. A contest that the contestants prepare for all year. This year I made chocolate chip sandwich cookies with a cream cheese filling, half dipped in chocolate. I must say, they were amazing! I was planning to take the title for the third time, but it seems as though some of the judges, despite the fact that my cookies were by far the best, decided to choose a cookie of a person who had not won the contest yet in order to keep morale up. That person was Nichole, who I must say, made a pretty nasty sugar cookie. Jealous you say...absolutely not!! Here are some pics from that event.




Christmas (1 of 3)

I am no longer apologizing for always being late and hardly ever posting. The few of you who actually read this blog, I'm sure, have come to the conclusion that I am always about three weeks behind with everything. Anyway, Christmas this year (or last year I guess) was awesome. Tate and I were really looking forward to it this year because we actually have a kid old enough to enjoy some of the festivities. On Christmas morning we opened presents at our house and then went to Grandma and Grandpa Leavitt's to open presents and eat delicious food. Here are some pics of wonderful holiday.










Do you think this little guy enjoyed Christmas? I think his face in this pic says it all!
