Update

December 16th was my grandma Janice's Birthday. We all went to dinner on the 15th and when she came home she found the present that my Dad, Mom, Hily, David, Jess and I gave her. It was a new flat screen TV. She loves to watch TV and she has had her little 19 inch TV since I can remember. HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDMA! WE LOVE YOU!

We have also been decorating the house and doing a lot of Christmas shopping. This is a picture of Roman and me. I put him in the Santa hat at my moms house. He looked so cute we had to take a picture.

The first week of December we got together with my family and our friends the Palmers and decorated gingerbread houses. We had a lot of fun and I think they all turned out great.

My cute parents with there gingerbread house. My mom was having trouble keeping the roof on her house. It kept sliding off.

This is the Palmer family, Gordon, Abbey, Christina, and McKenna.

My sister and brother- in-law cheated and bought a kit but it turned out really cute.

This is our whole village of houses. Ours is the cute one on the far right.

My grandma came and was concentrating on her decorating.

This is a close up of our house. I do have to say I really like the nerd roof.

Other than this we have been going to Christmas parties and just enjoying this holiday season. MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Halloween and Family Pictures

On Sunday we went up the canyon and took some family pictures. By the time we got up there it was getting dark and cold so we didn't have a chance to take very many. We will have to try again and see if we can get some better ones.






On Halloween we had a party at our house. Everyone dressed up, we ate dinner, went out and showed off our costumes, and finished of the night by watching the movie Joy Ride. Here are some pictures.

Max was a soccer player.

MeKenzi was "the green" and Matt was a golfer. Jess and I were pioneers.

Ginger and Ryan were tourists, Bryan and Stacey were a cowgirl and an Indian, and Steve and Lexsis were dead zombies.

This is during dinner. Jake is showing off his costume as Mr. Tickle.

We have grass!

This weekend we put sod in our front yard! I am so excited to have grass! This is a picture of our front yard. I think it makes it look so different.

We had so much help laying the sod and getting ready. My dad came over on Thursday and helped us rake up all the rocks in our front yard and get all the dirt smoothed out. I have the best dad ever! We also had a whole bunch of our friend come over and help us lay the sod. Justin, Mary, Jake, Matt, Bryan,Carson, Jess, and I all worked hard to get the sod down. Thanks again everyone!


Max was so excited to get grass.The minute we put the first piece down he was rolling around on it. We could not get him off of it.

Also Stephen and Chelsea got married this weekend. Congrats you guys!
