Jump and Paint

My boss was working on a house down the street and the old owners left a trampoline.  He said if we could move it, then it was ours.  Michael and a couple of boys rolled it over the fence and walked it down to our house and then we lifted it over our fence.  ha ha I am sure we were a quite a sight.

We have been having fun every day jumping!

Kid on Sunday morning.  They are looking cute.  The boys had their Christmas party on Friday.  I was in charge of Dallin's.  I forgot to take pictures, but it turned out okay.  

Michael had his painting class.  It sounded like they had a great time!

Christmas Pajamas!

They look so cute in their pajamas.

The boys had pajamas with the Principal on Thursday.  

The Principal read to them and they got hot chocolate.

Our friends got us pajamas for Christmas so it was perfect to wear them that night.

The whole crew ready to head out! 

It's beginning to look like Christmas!

We went to our city's celebration for Christmas.  The kids went "sledding."  Even Evan had a turn.

This is how we sled in Texas.  ha ha

We are waiting for the tree to be lit

The tree is lit and the lights dance with the music

We had fun with friends and family there!

We had a band at our Church Christmas party.  They sounded great!

Our Nativity.  The kids did way better than I thought.  

We put up a tree.  The kids had fun decorating it.

Yay for Christmas!

Joshua Birthday

We went to the Naval Aviation Museum in Florida.  We had a great time!  It was really neat!

Joshua wants to be a pilot so he was in heaven!

The kids enjoyed all of the planes.

Joshua did a flight simulator.  He loved it!

This is wha tthe outside looked like.  He kept saying how cool it was.

Opening up presents on his Birthday.

Death Star Cake

Joshua loves math and science.  He wants to be a pilot and if that doesn't work out than a geologist is his second choice.  He loves Star Wars and Legos.  He is a great leader.  We feel blessed to have in our lives!  

Thanksgiving!

We had a great Thanksgiving with my sister's and their families!

Lots of playing at the beach!

Lots of Games!

Thanksgiving dinner!

Beautiful sunsets!

Walk on the pier

Fun Time with cousins!

It was a wonderful time with family!

Scouts and Awards

Joshua went on a hike yesterday with the scouts.  He really enjoys scouts and had a great time.  Michael was there to help out and he seems to enjoy it as well.

Dallin made the honor roll again.  He is an excellent reader and likes his teacher.  He works hard on all of his projects.  We are proud of him.

Joshua also made the honor roll.  He loves science and math.  He needs to work on his handwriting, and isn't in love with grammar, but he's working on it.  He is working on his push ups and sit ups for PE.  We are proud of him as well!

Soccer Season Ending

We had our Church Thanksgiving dinner.  We did a thankful tree. It is always a good time with these two, two year olds.  

Soccer closing ceremonies were postponed two weeks due to weather.  The kids all had a great coach and team.  ;)  

The boys were undefeated and Leah's team learned lots.  It was a fun season, but I don't mind getting Saturdays back for other things.  :)

We Moved!

We moved into a bigger house for our growing family.  We feel thrilled and very blessed!  We love the house and the little acre it is on.  The kids love the creek.  The neighbors are nice and we are right next to the park.  

We even have a fire place in the living room. :)

We made one the second living space into a play room.

I finally have my kitchen unpacked.  Now I just have to remember where I put things.

Our dining room fits our long table.

Happy Halloween!

The kids had to dress up like what they wanted to be when they grew up.  Joshua wants to be a fighter pilot,  but I didn't have that look on hand.  He had to go with his second choice of geologist.  Dallin wants to be a soccer player and his second choice is an engineer.

My kids all dressed up for Halloween.  They were excited!

They went trunk or treating and loaded up on the candy.

Some friends of ours let the kids borrow they really expensive light sabers.  The kids loved them!  

It was a great Halloween!
