A Holiday Christmas Card

Wishing you and your family a Happy New Year!



This past year was a crazy one for this Cutler family! We've moved three different times, and we're happy to say that we are now in a lovely basement apartment, and plan to be here until Cam heads to law school.

This next year, Cam and Haley will be entering their second- and next-to-last semesters in school. We both anticipate to graduate in Spring 2011. Cam is still working at Wilson Motor Co. as the janitor, but he will also be a Teaching Assistant for one USU class, and will be working as a undergrad research assistant, studying international piracy laws, for a law professor on campus. Haley continues to work as a Shift Supervisor for Iron Gate Grill, and will be starting a marketing internship at the restaurant this year.


**Cam's family is so good at sending out family Christmas cards, and I am not. So here's my version of our "holiday card."

The Grinch

"Every Who down in Whoville, the tall and the small, liked Christmas a lot. But the Grinch, who lived just north of Whoville, did not."

This said mean one, Mr. Grinch, is attempting to steal my Christmas. Ever since before Thanksgiving, I was anxiously anticipating decorating my Christmas tree (which my mom generously allowed us to set up downstairs). Luckily, the Grinch didn't get a hold of the tree. That was set up with lights for a few days, inviting me to trim it with stars and glitter and ribbons and ornaments.

That was before the Grinch.

Sometime between September and last Saturday, that naughty green monster (or is he a mutant Who???) snuck down the chimney and stole all of our Christmas ornaments and stockings, for they are NOWHERE to be found! And trust me, we have looked in every nook and cranny. We didn't even find a crumb small enough for a mouse.

I am trying so very hard to have a Cindy Lou Who attitude about this whole thing, but I don't feel too inclined to go sing "Fa-foo fore, Da-voo dores" in the streets quite yet.

Hope the singing comes soon. :)
