Lyman Universe

Family and Friends,

This year has been a wonderful year. We have truly enjoyed life with our family and friends. I’ll give you a quick recap of the year, our kids and what the Lyman family has accomplished this year. Pictures are included at the end of the newsletter.

Last year we moved to Woods Cross, Utah and have settled nicely into the new schools, ward and neighborhood. I (mike) started a job with Two Little Hands Productions (Home of Signing Time) and am really enjoying working with them as their technology and marketing director. Carrie is a stay at home mom but has picked up numerous side projects along the way this year. Continue Reading »

This is Linda (Carrie’s Mom). There are a couple of things I wanted to let you all know about. First, as many of you may already know, on July 29, 2009 Aunt Katie is hosting a get-together for all of the family at Silver Falls, Oregon. it’s a tradition of her family to invite anyone in the family who can to come to breakfast at Silver Falls on the last Saturday in July. This year we’d especially like to have as many as possible come. If at all possible Grandpa Roberts will be there too, which brings up the second item.

We’d like to buy a recliner for Grandpa for Christmas. Mike Lyman has set up this post so that you can contribute if you would like. Click on the “Chip In” button and follow the instructions.

What is Chipin?

Chipin is simpy an easy way for us to collect all the money from everyone. You click the link it takes you to Mike’s paypal account and you use a credit or debit card to deposit the money. Then, we take the money everyone submitted and go buy Grandpa Roberts a nice recliner. If you don’t feel comfortable donating using PayPal and Chipin but would still like to contribute to help pay for the recliner then please contact Carrie Lyman or send a check to our address:

For Christmas this year Carrie and I packed up the kids and headed to Chico, CA. We are spending the Christmas to New Year’s Holiday with the Wests, Boulants, Ross, and Jones families in Chico. It was a surprising short drive for us (10 hours) compared to the almost 12 hours from Logan that we have usually done over the last 5 years.

 My boss here at Signing Time, Chris Higbee, is a great singer! He’s recorded Gloria and O Holy Night with his brother Rich. I just thought it was awesome so I thought I’d blog it!

As Christmas approaches I’m sure we are all busying ourselves with the typical bustle of the Holiday Season. I have a few stories that I’d like to share this week. A visit from Santa, snow falling fast and hard, work and ward Christmas parties, and music to brighten the Christmas Cheer.

This week was a busy one at the Lyman house. We hosted Thanksgiving dinner on Thursday, and on Saturday we had the Lyman family gift exchange since this weekend was the only weekend Monica would be in town from Denver. To top the activities off we also had a small birthday party for Carrie.
