December 2016

December was filled with Holiday parties, basketball, and a trip. We had a great month and enjoyed the time to thibk about the real meaning of Christmas and time as a family.

USU v BYU


This is the Christmas tree Whit really wanted. We told him it wouldn't fit in the house and his response was "we'll put it outside the house"!







One of the most exciting parts of Decemberwas that Whit suddenly decided he wanted to be a big boy, go on the toilet, and wear undies. Yay for no more diapers!


These bear slippers have the funniest story. We were wasting time during a basketball practice at sportsmans warehouse. Whit saw these and could not live without them. He even had a pair for Rett and really wanted those too. At one point we found him with his shoes off and putting them on. We gave in and got them for him. He was so happy!!







The boys reaction to their Christmas present of NFL tickets to the Chiefs game wasn't nearly as exciting as we thought it would be. But they did love the game and the trip. And I was watching out of the corner of my eye that little boy with the scissors!!

November 2016

In November we finished football and started basketball. Still busy. And still fun. Whit turned 3, crazy and exciting! And we had tons of family in town for Thanksgiving. That weekend Drake was also baptised a member of the Churxh of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.









Drake won 2nd place at our cubscout pinewood derby!



Crew caught a fish at cubscouts!




Uncle Brandon made a special visit to Utah.



Some of the family braved the cold weather to run the Erda Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving morning!





Cousin Emi from Arizona loved the little bit of snow we had.

October 2016

October brought more football, and of course Halloween. School was going well and we just tried to keep up with Whit!


Foot ball friends late night.

Crew and X.

Crew and I went on a fun field trip to learn about the ecosystems of the Great Salt Lake.

X, Cole, Crew.

Drake started Cub Scouts. He is a Wolf and Crew is a Bear.




Whit decided he liked my punk witch wig!



Drake got player of the week!

Drake was also the "Today is game day" photo.

 And Halloween was kind of a last minute thrown together thing. But we got through it.




This is the cute, calm Whit that finally gives us a break!
