<br />
<div style="min-height: 13px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; letter-spacing: 0px;"> We are grateful to the LORD for seeing us through another year.</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; letter-spacing: 0px;">God is good!</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; letter-spacing: 0px;">In looking back over the last 12 months, the biggest thing that stands out is birth of our daughter ( </span><i style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large; letter-spacing: 0px;">yes, you heard it right folks! BJ and Elaine are capable of creating females!</i><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; letter-spacing: 0px;">), Elsie Mae, last May.</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; letter-spacing: 0px;">Girls are different!</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; letter-spacing: 0px;">She is a true joy and blessing to us in every way imaginable.</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; letter-spacing: 0px;">From the time we had found we were having a girl, we had been praying that God would give her a meek and quiet spirit, and He has done just that.</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; letter-spacing: 0px;">We like to call her “sweet Mae.”</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; letter-spacing: 0px;">It has been fun watching Elaine release all the-dress up little girl energy- that had been pent up for so long.</span></div>
<div style="min-height: 13px;">

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Also noteworthy, my dad, Pastor John Kuykendall, retired from the ministry after 26 fruitful years at Lynchwood Church of God. It has been wonderful seeing more of my folks and having them as a part of our congregation. They have jumped right in and offered up their many talents and abilities in the Lord’s service. Since September my mother, Sally, has taught Jared, Jesse, and Justin on the piano and they are really growing under her tutelage. </span></span><br />
<div style="min-height: 13px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"></span><br /></span></div>
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>2014 is also the year that one of my, BJ’s, dreams was realized as our Church put on a “Living Christmas Story” as an outreach to our community. It consisted of 11 “snap-shots” from the life of Jesus beginning with John 1:1 (“In the beginning was the Word…) and culminating with Christ’s bodily resurrection from the grave. Despite rough weather the whole experience was a blessing. </span></span><br />
<div style="min-height: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Life for us continues to revolve around family and the church. <b>BJ</b> is in his 5th year of pastoring Hoodview Church of God and when he’s not busy with the affairs of the congregation he enjoys working around the property of making improvements to the home. <b>Elaine</b> is the keeper of our home. She does a wonderful job preparing delicious and nutritious meals for all of us, seeing to it that we look presentable, and educating the children. <b>Jared</b> has really shot up this year- his mother has to look up to him now! Jared is becoming quite a fine piano player and loves all things related to computers and technology. <b>Jesse</b> was able to go elk hunting with his older brother and dad (and Uncle Joe and Papa) this year and had a blast. Jesse loves the outdoors, guns, running equipment, and everything rough and tumble you can think of but still has a soft spot for music and his little brothers. One of the highlights of my year was baptizing Jesse this October. <b>Justin</b> has the most beautiful voice you ever heard. He has a tender heart for the Lord and others, and is turning out to be the artist in the family. Our <b>John</b> is the farmer of the bunch. We got him a hog for his birthday, named spots, and we can’t wait to enjoy the ham and bacon he provides! John is as witty as they come and always has an entertaining one liner to share with us. As I write this <b>Judson</b> is getting over the chicken pox, ugh! It takes more than that to slow Him down. Jud came out of the womb moving and hasn’t stopped since. Anything his big brothers can do he will try. Despite this daring and adventurous spirit, Jud is very tender and sweet with little Elsie Mae. He carries her all over the place. <b>Joshua</b> and <b>Josiah</b> (I have to mention them together because they do everything together) are on their way to learning obedience and the art of sitting nicely through church. They moved in with the big boys this year (yes, we have 7 boys in 1 room) and growing so fast. They are a “handful” but we can’t imagine life without them. I think they’re going to be good singers.</span></span><br />

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>In 2014 we took a few day trips to the beach, went to Camp Dwight, continued to hold church services (as a family) at Silver Creek Assisted Living, took our 3 oldest boys to Camp Whitebranch (where BJ served as the camp evangelist), had some great friends over for “Camp Kuykendall, built triple bunk beds, got some goats, preached (BJ) a few revival meetings, sang for a few events, started a few businesses (boys), hosted our 2nd Thanksgiving meal (as the grown-ups!), and spent a lot of time with loving each other and our good friends and family. </span></span><br />

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>If you’re still reading this, you clearly posses charity, for “charity suffereth long…” At the end of the day if we’ve accomplished anything worthwhile we give all the glory to the LORD Jesus Christ. It is our greatest joy to know Him as our personal LORD and Savior. Dear friends and family members, taste and see that the LORD is good!</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The day after Christmas BJ, Joshua, Josiah, and I flew to Colorado for my cousin, Big Justin's wedding. This was an exciting and crazy time! Mostly crazy trying to deal with the to-do's of Christmas <i>and</i> getting packed and ready for a trip. Even though I can multi-task, I usually have to focus on one event and then work on the next. Thankfully we didn't fly out until the afternoon. :)</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Once we landed and got our rental car we met my dad for dinner. The last time we saw him was the summer of 2010 so this was his first time to meet the twins. We had a nice time visiting before making the long drive to Wray. (A place I love....pretty sure I've mentioned that a time or two!)</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It was so good to see family again. I really wish we could have stayed longer and brought all the boys with us. Our big boys were so sad to miss out. On a drive to let the twins nap we stopped by my mom and Aunt's old school. It was hard to relive the many memories of my mother. This was where she grew up and where she took us for our vacations every year. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Wrapping night....every year BJ and I watch "The Preacher's Wife" while wrapping presents. BJ helps for a while then falls asleep on the couch. We live an exciting life. :) I can usually sneak his gifts out and wrap them while he sleeps....convenient since the mess and wrapping paper is already out. I usually prefill lunch bags with each boys' stockings, but this year we had no where to hang the stockings so those were prefilled and hid until the big day. :)</span></div>

I didn't get many pictures, but I love this one of the middles waiting so patiently to open gifts. :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This year we decided to put on a live nativity at our church. Our church in Centralia had held a live nativity for many years but felt the time had come to end that tradition. I have fond memories of being a part of that nativity, so I was excited that they were giving the scenes to our church. :) With this being our first year we started off small with one scene and few participants. Poor Johnny didn't feel good the first night. My big boys and the Hans family were troopers doing the whole 2 hour shift. (Like I mentioned, we were short on our volunteers.) The second night Johnny was back to his old self- and we were able to switch out people throughout the night. Overall, the weekend went well, and it generated a little vision and excitement within our congregation for the coming years.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We were able to fit in our Christmas traditions again this year. Boy, if we don't put them on the calendar in the beginning of the month, it's tough to make it happen. These traditions mean a lot to our boys.....and that means they are a priority to me. :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Two weeks before Christmas we surprised the boys with a puppy. I love how BJ drove to get the puppy, surprised the boys, then we left for a date night....sorry Johnson girls. :) Anyone who <i>really</i> knows me knows that dogs are not my thing. However, I love my boys soooo much, how could I resist? Especially when my biggest boy of all was most excited about having a dog again. :) So far Jack has been a great puppy and quite the companion for our boys on their many adventures around the property. I will admit that he is kinda cute- and I even pet him! Can you believe it?!!! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The first weekend in December we were blessed to have two little girls stay with us. While BJ's cousin (Eddie and wife Jocelyn) were in Hawaii celebrating their anniversary, we got to have Rileigh and Paisley stay with us for two nights. Talk about fun....and different! We had a great time, and it was so hilarious to see the differences between boys and little girls. We also had snow that weekend. Woo-hoo! Being a California girl, snow is something I get really excited about. :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As is our tradition on my side of the family, we hosted Thanksgiving. We were thrilled to finally have a place of our own....especially one big enough to host the event. So, although it was worth it, I've gotta say, this was a <i>huge</i> undertaking. :) I have an even greater appreciation for the many yummy holiday meals I have enjoyed throughout the years where all I was responsible for was a side dish or dessert. :) Amy and I have had quite the year with our mom passing away, getting settled in new houses, and Amy having a baby. :) With life a little more in order and my sister's help, next year will be a piece of cake! Anyway, the day wasn't nearly long enough, but we enjoyed the time we did have together.</span></div>

Old news now, but November 16th, my little nephew Ezekiel was born. He was a big boy and oh so adorable. I was glad to make a quick trip up to Centralia the day he arrived with Jared, Justin, and Johnny. BJ was sad to miss out, but he couldn't get away and I didn't want to wait! Our dear friends had their baby boy, Eli (Ezekiel's cousin) just two days before so I was in baby heaven that day with two infants to hold. :)</div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 10px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2013 was a big year for the Kuykendalls. </span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 10px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One of the high points was finally buying a home after 2 ½ years of renting following our move to Woodburn. Our house is a few miles south of town and is on almost 20 acres. Some may say that it’s foolish for a minister to waste his time farming. I would reply that I'm not as interested in growing corn or cattle as I am growing boys, and there’s no better place to do just that. We are very thankful to have our own place out in the country and look forward to farm life and all its trappings. </span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 10px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Another highlight was taking my (BJ) sons, Jared and Jesse, with me to Mexico on a mission trip with our church. I was so proud of how hard they worked and how well they handled a VERY different environment. The trip stretched us, grew us, and reminded us just how blessed we are. “To whom much is given much is required.”</span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 10px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Our good friends, the Johnsons took us to Disneyland in October. We were able to keep the whole trip a surprise until we got to the airport-and boy were they ever surprised! The hotel, the food, the sunshine, the friends, the rides; it was all wonderful! </span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 10px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">On a sadder note, Elaine’s mother, Connie, passed away on August 27</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><sup>th</sup></span><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"> after a long battle with multiply myeloma. We thought we were going to lose her the previous August, but the LORD graciously extended her life for one more year. Connie had a relatively good quality of life until the very end. We really miss her-you’re never ready to lose a parent- but we are thankful for all the good times we shared and full of hope that we will one day see her again in heaven. </span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 10px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sometimes life seems slow, but when you are looking back it seems so fast. I can’t believe how much are boys are growing. They are learning how to be godly men and will no doubt be lights for JESUS in this dark world. Here are a few things worth noting:</span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 10px;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Oh our sweet Jud. He is definitely still full of boundless energy. There are active kids, and then there's Jud. :) We love him though....and he keeps us on our toes. Jud loves dressing like a cowboy with <i>two</i> belts because that is what Roy Rogers wears. He also <i>really</i> loves sweets, but we have to control that because he is <i>really</i> affected by sugar. He is a very thankful boy who always seems to remember to say, "thank you, mommy." Jud loves to help daddy with projects and was especially excited to get his toy power tools to help take down the barn. :) He is already so excited to go hunting someday and really doesn't understand why he can't yet. Judson is a lot of fun and brings so much joy into our life.</span></div>

He carries quite a load being a pastor and daddy to all our boys, but he carries it well. I'm so thankful to have a husband that has chosen to make us his hobby. :)</span></div>

They called our family up front and then chucked socks at us from all directions. As you can imagine, the boys loved it! They also loved opening the socks at home and finding the hidden treasures. We are so thankful for such a loving and generous church family.</span></div>
