Memorable Monday
Christmas Cards 2013


2013 was an eventful year for the Pace family.  We are so grateful that we can spend some quality time as a family this year.  We took a camping trip up on the rim and spent 2 days without any cell service.  We had an enjoyable time just hanging out with each other.  It was one of the highlights of the 2013 year.

Jim continues to work at Merchant's Information Solutions.  He works really hard and we really appreciate it.  Jim was just released as the Ward Mission Leader.  This calling kept him busy for the past 2 years.  He really enjoyed the calling and having the spirit that the missionaries brought into our home.  

Tami is a busy mom.  She is often found at one of the kid's three school helping our or attending the many events that her kids are involved with.  She is still the Scout Advancement Chairman, which helped Josh this year a lot.  She is tutoring math as well.   She loves to take pictures, and tries to keep her family blog updated when she finds free time.  

Josh is 17 yrs old and is a junior in high school.  He is a great student and was inducted into the National Honor Society this fall.  He stays super busy with the band at Mesa High, including 2 jazz bands and the Marching Band.  He marched the Sousaphone this year, and he was thrilled to win the State Championship again this year, which makes 2 years in a row. He is going to participate in the Holiday Bowl this year with the Marching Band .  Josh earned his Eagle this year and we hope to celebrate next year.

Danni is 15 and is a sophomore in high school.  In the spring, she was the student director the Taylor' musical "Into the Woods".  It was fun for her to go back to Taylor and help out.  She is taking drama and choir in school and it's great to see her perform.  She is involved in the Marching Band again this year and was apart of the weapon line.  The color guard this year worked super hard and won the Color guard caption award along with their State Championship.  She has the opportunity to participate in the Holiday Bowl as well.  Danni participated in Christian Dance and performed on the temple grounds.  Danni has her learner's permit and loves to drive.

Angela is 13 and is  in 8th grade this year.  Angela is doing really well in school and the teachers are helping her find success.  This is her second year of junior high and loves showing her school spirit.  Her favorite class is Home Economics where she has learned how to cook and even sewed a cute bag.  Angela is in choir this year and is often found singing.  Angela loves attending Young Women.

Emily is 9 yrs old and in 3rd grade.  She works super hard on her homework and is getting really good in math.  She is becoming more social and is coming out of her shell.  Emily is one of the sweetest girl that I know.  She loves to play with her siblings and friends.  She has been busy with Mesa Children's Choir and Activity Days

We hope you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!
The Pace Family
