i'm only writing this because i can't believe it's been over a YEAR since i even attempted to blog. remember that one time when i said i would blog once a week. i am a liar. a big fat liar. i'm skipping all the funny stuff and just updating you on the basics. the family is great. we moved to north pole alaska. (yes that's a real place and yes there's santa stuff everywhere) we found a great church. we're settling in. and oh yeah....we had another baby. in case you lost count that makes 4. Sonya Camiel Slaugenhoup was born in march 2013. our house is full of love. and noise. and diapers.
