Merry Christmas from the Beagley family!!
We hope that this letter reaches all of you in good health, and that you are enjoying the holiday season.
We have had a blessed year, and we would love to share it with you!
Judd has had a life changing year. He found out that Hawaii is one of the most heavenly places on earth, and has decided to quit working so hard. He has found out that spending more time with his family is more enjoyable than satisfying someone else on a side job. He has started working as an industrial electrician for E.G.& G defense…(They have a contract with the government to destroy weapons with chemicals.) This does require him to do shift work (which has taken some getting used to) but it allows him to spend more quality time with his family, and of course more time on his honey do lists. He can’t wait to go snorkeling again in some exotic place! Judd was released from being the Varsity Scout coach in May, and is enjoying a bit more free time in that aspect as well. He loves to play outside with the boys, and built a beautiful master bath this year as well! He is currently building a nursery for our new baby.
Keiauni agrees that Hawaii is a wonderful place!! She and Judd spent 10 days there in June, while her Mom and Dad (thanks!!) kept an eye on the boys at home. She loved seeing her cousins while she was there, and can’t wait to go back with the whole family in a couple of years! In April, she and Judd discovered they were expecting another baby, and to their astonishment, it is a GIRL!! The whole family is waiting to see when she shows up. The baby is due January 3rd, so it could be any day now!!
In May, Keiauni was asked to be the Young Women’s 2nd counselor, and was released from being Primary Secretary, and Home Skills Enrichment Leader! She also completed compiling and publishing a ward cookbook this year! Whew! She enjoys being a stay at home Mom, and gets a kick out of the boys everyday! She knows it is a privilege to be their Mother, and loves it.
Elijah entered the 1st grade this year, and with a tumultuous start (which resulted in the dismissal of his 1st grade teacher), but things are back on track, and he is loving school, and his new teacher! She is WONDERFUL!! He has learned how to read, and now is writing notes to everyone in our family, and apology letters as well!! Eli loves to snowboard, play soccer, and swims like a little fish. Little? I guess that isn’t so. We can’t seem to keep him in clothes, shoes, and food. He is eating us out of house and home! ( That’s OK, boys are supposed to do that!) He loves math, and is really good at it! One thing about Eli, that is extremely cute, is that he loves to WORK. (Just like his Dad.) He loves to take things apart with his tools, and try to make other things out of the parts. We like to call him little Judd. He informed us not to worry, because he will be taking care of the baby for us! We love this kid!
Asher is so FUN LOVING, and entertaining! He loves Kindergarten, and likes to go 99 miles per hour at all times. He likes to do his homework at night, and wants to do more challenging schoolwork. (i.e.: we have to copy Eli’s worksheets, so Ash can try to do them, too.) He calls this “REAL” homework. Ash really is a clown, and reminds us of his Uncle Quin everyday. He loves to sing songs, and write his name on things that belong to him. Asher is tall and lanky. He loves any sort of treat he can get his hands on, and especially likes to eat cookies and milk. He liked playing soccer this year for fun Coach Jeff, and tried his hardest to mind their team motto: “Kick don’t Pick.” It was a hilarious season! Ash also likes to swim, and made it down the big slide at the aquatic center by himself this year. His favorite privilege right now, is to play “Star Wars Legos” on the playstation. He is also still the cuddliest little monkey we know. He loves to give hugs. We just love him!
We hope that you have a great Christmas! Check out our family blog sometime, and leave a comment. We’d love to hear from you! http://www.puddingforbrains.blogspot.com/

Merry Christmas! We love your Christmas letter and we're so glad that things are going so well for all of you!
Hey, this is Kyle and I didn't see that you were offering up your Curves membership until just now. Anyways, I want it and my guess is - brown hair, brown eyes, 20 inches long, and 7.23 lbs. Good luck to me. (You should name her Incarnation).
Incarnaaaaationnnnn! diddle le dee
Oh-oh-o-o-00hhh!
Got it!
my baby girl was by far the biggest of my babies...I think it's happenin' to you too. Wasn't Eli over 8lbs? I think she'll be a whopping 8lbs. 5oz, 20 in. For your sake I hope not, but that's my guess! I can't wait to hear what you name the little gal! I hope you liked all the goodies at the shower! If you ever want more just give me a ring!
Hey, I don't have your address for some reason...will you e-mail it to me? I have your card sitting on my table waiting to be sent.
Take care...hopefully we'll hear something about this pink little bundle sooner than later!
Love you,
Sus
HA HA!
We'll see what happens, sus. Eli was 8lb 15 1/2 oz, and I pray to never have a baby that big again!
Ash was 7 lb. 11 oz, and were thinking this little girl could be smaller. You never know though!
I loved EVERYTHING that you sent. I really love the beanie! The bows are so sweet.
I am looking for a few more boutique-ey items, like a tutu, etc. You'll have to let me know what you've seen :)
Love,
Keiauni
Do you have a baby yet?
so ANXIOUSLY waiting to see pictures of new little Avey! Please hurry...I don't think I can wait much longer!!! I'm so so glad that everything went well, and that you are both healthy and doing well!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Glad I checked back and read the comment by Tod and Susy. I have been thinking of you for days! Ditto on glad things are going well for you both!! Hope to see a precious photo soon. Speaking of which, I'd love some more practice, may I photograph her as a new born???
