The Orgill Kids...

Preston (9 months)


Kamryn (2 yrs)


Just thought I would show off some pics of my kids since no one really gets to see them!!!
I think this is a great idea and am so excited to keep in better touch with everyone. Sometimes I really hate that I live so far away from all of you and feel like I miss out on so much!

Well, here is a little update for all of you...
Kamryn is 2 and doesn't let me forget it for one second! It is definitely terrible twos, although I will admit it has felt like terrible twos long before she was two. She loves to make messes and her favorite things to do are; run, dance, sing, jump and just be a crazy little girl! She really is so much fun.
Preston is 9 months and is the sweetest baby ever. He is so content to just sit there and watch his sister play. He is happy a lot of the time and loves to cuddle, splash in the tub and play with his sister.
I have a personal blog if anyone wants to take a look just send me an email and I will send you an invite to it. karinaorg@gmail.com

Taylor Christmas Celebration

Dear Fam,

I'm starting to work on decorations for our Taylor Christmas celebration, I would like to do a nativity theme using different nativities for table centerpieces and I need 3 more nativities. If you have one I can use, let me know. But please no cherished keepsakes that could get broken. Thanks for your help!

Our beautiful Sydnie Jean

As many of you know we had our baby girl. She was born July 3rd and has brought more love to our family than I can express. It is so exciting to see how she grows and progresses. Everyday is a great joy and I am so grateful for the opportunity I have of staying home with her everyday so I can teach her all about this crazy life. She has been smiling for a while now but these last few weeks she has started to giggle. So CUTE. I just love it and I cant wait to see her do so much more.

Rulon and Jeraldine- 60 year anniversary celebration



Well, many of you were there, so I don't have to tell you what an awesome experience it was to be in the most sacred place in the world with the two people who are in part responsible for our existence! The spirit in the temple is amazing anyway, but to have so many loved ones in that holy place was a wonderful feeling. I know Dad was there too, and wouldn't have missed it for any manner of work they have him doing now. Our family is so important, and I hope we can remain close and continue to strengthen each other as we go through this crazy life together as grandma and grandpa have done.

Mikkelson Girls Getting into Trouble with the Law


Okay, not really, but Avery did come voting with me and she's not 18 yet. I'm excited that prop 22 has passed (though not by much) and it makes me optimistic that California might not drop into the ocean after all. Avery and I are staying busy, trying hard not to miss Reed too much (he comes home in about 34 days), and getting used to doing everything ourselves. Though it has been challenging being without a husband these past few months, our relationship has deepened in unforseen ways and I would almost recommend it. Avery is in preschool now and loving it. She's also developed a habit of talking with a british accent and singing in latin with mommy, but she's an only child so you can't blame her.

Mike Taylor Family Update.

Hi all,
What a great idea, I'll have to admit I'm not much of a blogger, but I'll do my best. Not a lot of news out here except it has finaly come down out of the 90s this week. Feels great to be able to go outside without getting the Phoenix heat blast. Nicholas is still in the MTC. He has written a couple of times and is doing very well. He is loving the opertunity to serve the Lord and looks forward to going to Quito Equador.

I don't have any recent photos on this computer, I'll try to get some for my next posting.

Love you all,

Michael
