Merry Christmas Everyone! 2008 has been a busy year for us. This summer we moved from Mesa, Arizona to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Becca got to fly into Pittsburgh while Orrin took Robert and Nelaine and all our stuff in a 26 foot truck. Orrin, Robert and Nelaine had a great adventure and loved every minute of it! We love our new house. We live near a major bus line, a grocery store and a library in a nice neighborhood called Squirrel Hill. Orrin went back to school this fall at the University of Pittsburgh. He is working on his PhD at the Katz Business School, emphasizing in Decision Sciences. Becca is still teaching piano lessons and hopes to add a preschool music class this spring. She loves being able to stay at home with her children. Robert turned five this fall and started Kindergarten. He loves his teacher, Ms. Bishop, and has learned to read, add and subtract. His favorite part about school is recess. Nelaine turned three this fall. She is a joy to be around. She loves to dress-up, dance, and play instruments. She also loves to help around the house. Eli Thomas joined our family on November 28. He is a great baby and very cute. He weighed 8 lbs. 9 oz. and was 20 ½ inches long. When he was four days old, he'd already gained an ounce over his birth weight and grown an inch! We hope this update on our family finds you in good health and happiness. We love celebrating our Savior's birth. We know He lives and stands with open arms to bless us in our times of need and of joy. May you have His blessings this Christmas and in the new year!!
