What a wonderful day it was today to have the Herfurth family sealed today in the Dallas Temple. Their whole family just seemed to glow. We are all so happy for them and us. We Love you so much Herfurth family.

It finally snowed in Rockwall

It wasn't much snow but Kora and Paw Paw made the biggest snowman we could this morning. Don't you just love his olive eyes?

Trying on Paw Paw's Reading Glasses

I had Kora and Miah at my office one day and they just had to try on my reading glasses. Don't they look really smart.

Jessica makes the Channel 8 News

Our famous Daughter made the news. As most of you know Jessica took donations from all the family and bought toys for the kids at Childrens Hospital. It has taken me a while to post this video because I only had it on a vhs tape and had to figure out a way to copy it so I could post it. I just played it on our TV and recorded it with our camera so that is why it is a little bad looking and sounding. O well it was the best I could do.

I just had to leave the last part about the most popular names because we have both a Jakob and a Aidan.

Christmas Party 2007

Well it took me a while but I have finally made the Christmas Party posting. We had 37 family and friends over for Christmas and it was a lot of fun. We did not have the Heinzen's or the Herfurth's this year and we missed them very much. Teresa is not in the pictures because she was taking the pictures. This is just a few of them. Thanks everyone for a great party.

Santa at Church

Kora, Jakob, and Paw Paw went to the ward Christmas party and guess who was there. As you can see Jakob had a whole list of things he wanted for Christmas. So many things he couldn't pose for a picture. Kora's list was short. They both had lots of fun.

Robin Handel
Rowlett police say a married woman who was having an online affair wanted her husband dead.
So she had her mother shoot him in the back of the head after serving him a slice of cake, Rowlett police spokesman John Ellison said.
Robin Handel, 44, of Rockwall was arrested Thursday on a charge of conspiracy to commit aggravated assault with a deadly weapon in the Nov. 30 shooting of her husband, Stephen Handel, Mr. Ellison said.
"The investigation pointed to [Ms. Handel] having some type of online relationship with an unknown person," Mr. Ellison said. "The investigation doesn't show that this individual is involved at this time."
Mr. Handel, 38, survived the shooting at the Dalrock Meadows Mobile Home Park in the 8700 block of Lakeview Parkway. The bullet was fired from a small-caliber gun and apparently didn't penetrate his skull, police said.

After the shooting, Ms. Handel's 71-year-old mother, Janelle Thompson, barricaded herself in her home for about 90 minutes. When she came out, police noticed she had shot herself twice in the chest.

Janelle Thompson
Ms. Thompson underwent surgery and was arrested the day after the shooting on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, Mr. Ellison said. She was being held at the Dallas County Jail on Thursday night in lieu of $5,000 bail.
Ms. Handel was being held at the Rowlett Jail, where her bail information was not available.

I don't want to mess with the mom or daughter. The mom looks really scary.
