Happy New Year! Our biggest event of 2021 was our big move from Las Vegas to Utah. I think this was my first year ever not sending out a Christmas Card, mainly because we didn’t have a decent family photo to print out.
Here’s what I would have written in my Christmas letter if I had mailed it out.
In July we filled up a large U-haul and moved our family of 9 to Lehi, Utah! Max is back up at BYU-Idaho. Hanna got her GED and will be starting a couple college classes soon, hopefully. Van helped push us to move to Utah and is having a great year as a 6’4 Freshman! He noticed right away that the girls are a lot more forward here and that hasn’t bothered him one bit! Daisy is in the 8th grade this year and has found a couple of new friends. She also has a babysitting job that has helped keep up with her shopping hobby. Walt is in the 8th grade too and is the one that misses Vegas the most. We are trying to encourage him to stand up straight and meet new friends. Clark is in the 4th grade and has said, “school here is like Fun Friday every day!” He is loving the snow! Jane is in the 1st grade and is also really liking school this year! I was nervous that she wouldn’t be ready to be in school all day, since last year was not a typical school year. She is growing out of her shyness and shocked me when she performed so courageously in Singers Company a couple weeks ago. Jane misses her Vegas friends and wishes we could just drive over and visit them for the day. Danny was the one most reluctant to move, but has had to come to the harsh realization that Jenny was right again. Jen is enjoying her weekly hikes and attending the beautiful temples all around the area. We miss our family and friends back in Las Vegas dearly and we hope you’ll visit whenever you’re in the area!
Wishing you all a Happy New Year!
Love, The Jensen’s
Danny, Jen, Max 18, Hanna 16, Van 15, Daisy & Walt 13, Clark 9, Jane 6
