AAU Season Begins

January 2009~
AAU season began with a pre-season tournament. Issy's team ended up in the Championship Game but ended up taking second place, but they held the team to the lowest point margin! Official season begins Jan. 24 and ends Feb 28th. Isabelle sure makes her mom proud by how hard she competes and what a good teammate she is by being so supportive. Go Wolves!

Christmas in Idaho Falls

December 2008~
The Season started with Issy singing in the choir at our Church~The Cathedral of the Rockies.


Issy and I celebrated a wonderful holiday season with our family in Idaho Falls. SO MUCH SNOW! We loved it! Issy made this snowman Baby Jesus.



Christmas Eve was full of fun at my brother Doug's house. Pulling kids on the sled, doing the traditional luminarias and eating Nancy's yummy baking were definitely highlights.
Robin and Ally's boyfriend, Dustin, filling sacks with sand.
Alison's Little Tinkerbell was bundled up for the weather.
Me and my sweet Issy.
Luminarias lining the sidewalks have been a tradition for the Stewart family since we moved from New Mexico to Idaho Falls in the seventies...nice to see the tradition passed down to our kids (and grandkids).
My brothers Doug and Robin with my niece Mary.
