Blessing of Paige Halgren

~ Blessing Day for Paige Halgren ~

We all went down for the blessing of our new granddaughter Paige. Kirk, Kallie, Kyndal and Lindsey went home before we took this picture....we are glad they came but sad we missed out on getting them in the picture.  It was great to have everyone there for the blessing though!  Michelle came with us too.

what all grandma's love to do!

Then it was Grandpa Mark's turn to hold baby Paige....

what a sweet baby she is!

We had Stake Conference this weekend and Mark had a meeting he had to be to Saturday night so we weren't able to come down until Sunday morning.  We haven't had snow at all month but it decided to snow that night right before we had to leave.  We got a few inches and the roads were extremely icy.  We were glad that it was a little colder that morning plus it has snowed a little bit more so the roads weren't as icy as they were Saturday night. But especially glad Mark is such an excellent driver as we headed on down to Rexburg through the canyon.  What a wonderful day being with family and seeing our son, Zach bless his little girl.  He did an excellent job.  So glad we didn't miss it! We are so blessed with such wonderful children, daughter-in-laws and granddaughters!

Thanksgiving at Carlsons

Family Get-Together at Carlsons House.

So fun to get together at Peter and Meagan's house for some family time and snacks.  We don't seem to get together often enough so when we can it is a great time.   Glad the Haderlie's could make it too!

Kirk and Kallie's Apartment

We went over to Kirk and Kallie's apartment early Sunday morning for breakfast. It was sure nice of them to have all of us over to their home early in the morning. They sure have a nice place and Kallie put her decorating talents to work and the place looks great!

Halgren Family

HALGREN FAMILY - 2010

This is the last picture we have of all our kids together before Jake left for his mission in July 2010. We won't be together for 2 years so thought we would take a picture. We are up at Mark's parent's home at Lake Mary Ronan which is just west of Flathead Lake by Polson, Montana. We love to visit as it is so beautiful there.

L-R: Brek, Lindsey, Jake, Kallie, Kirk, Jessica, and Zach.

Our oldest son, Kirk graduated from MSU in Exercise Science. Kirk also got married this summer to his beautful wife, Kallie Olds, on August 6, 2010 in the Billings, Montana Temple. They are now living in Orem, Utah. Kirk is working at a Physical Therapy Office and Kallie is working at a Dental Office. They are getting residency in Utah so Kirk can apply to Graduate School and Kallie can finish her degree in Dental Hygiene. They are loving their home in Utah!

Our second son, Zach got married December 29, 2009 to his beautiful wife, Jessica Zaccardi, in the Billings, Montana Temple. They are living in Rexburg, Idaho where they are both going to college at BYU-Idaho. Zach is majoring in Pre-med and Jessica is majoring in Nursing. They are both working hard in their college majors but still find time to enjoy the activities at BYU-I.

Our third son, Brek is attending BYU-Idaho and majoring in Health Care Administration. He is loving his classes and enjoying the college life and all the activities. He is interested in photography and has an excellent eye for it. He took Kirk and Kallie's wedding photos. We will have to post some of his other recent photos.

Our fourth son, Jake was attending BYU-Provo and majoring in Pre-med. His interest may have to do with all the knee injuries in our family. Jake really enjoyed going to BYU and worked hard to finish up the year with excellent grades. He has since left BYU for the MTC - July 7, 2010 to serve a mission in Brazil.

Our fifth child, Lindsey, is a senior at Belgrade High School. She is the only one left at home now. She gets the opportunity to hang out with her parents all the time, poor girl. Right now she is playing Varsity volleyball. Lindsey plays middle hitter/blocker and also is one of the setters for the team. She is having a great season!
