The Hodgkin Family Update

Gregg- Is currently working as an accountant for Collier's International. He is also working with the teachers in the scouting program. He Loves to be with the youth. . . I think it keeps him young! He goes camping every month with them, and it learning to bare the unbearable (camping in the snow and freezing). He's had some of the longest nights you can imagine! We think he is a Great Daddy and husband!

Jamie- Is at home with 4 little ones each day. . .and she loves it! They keep her on her toes and make her laugh everyday. She is also working with the younger scouts as a Den mother (to the Wolfs). Jamie is in a food group with 4 other ladies. Each lady is assigned a day to cook (M-Thus.) and on their day they cook for all four families and deliver the food. It's great to hear the doorbell ring and know that dinner is ready! We sure love it, and love experiencing new foods! On her day to cook however, it can be a little stressful getting dinner ready with 4 kids. . . .but well worth it!

Dallin (8)- Is our little cuddler. Even though he is already 8 years old he still finds time to climb in mom's lap and get a few hugs in (of course when none of his friends are here). Dallin is also playing soccer on a local team and doing great! He is such a sports guy! He is great at just about whatever he tries. He is also in scouts (with mom) and loves to have fun with all the boys. Dallin is doing wonderful in school! His latest report card was exactly what parents hope for! Congratulations Dallin, we love you!

Alise (5)- Is our princess. She loves to be beautiful! She always wants to dress up or do her nails, and she especially likes to put on make-up (thanks to her uncle who bought if for Christmas ;) I am not naming any names. . .TYLER! She is so sweet and will play whatever her friends want to play, she is just happy to have someone to be with. Alise will be going to Kindergarten this year and mom is starting reading lessons. Our goal is to have her reading by the end of summer.

Preston (3)- Is our fun guy! He is always smiling and LOVES to make people laugh ( he is really good at it too). Preston loves to play outside, especially with his cousin's that share a backyard with us. He is now a sunbeam at church and loves to go to primary. He looks forward to Preschool this September (he will be going to Alise's old preschool). Preston is incredibly smart and learns things without us even teaching him! He can already spell his name. . .and his sister's too! He brings a light to our family.

Maleah (1)- Maleah is loved by all! She is so sweet and cuddly. When you hold her she always wants to lay he head on your shoulder. She plays Really well by herself or with her brothers and sisters. She just crawls from room to room , and rarely even cries. She is always laughing and being silly. Maleah has been so easy and such a joy to our family!
