Give Thanks

For family night on Monday we did a lesson on being thankful fo the things that have. I had them go off by themself and think of things that they were thankful for. Then we all ogt back together to read our list. Obviously Abby just scribbled, but it was still cute. Cameron is just learning how to write and spell words, but he was thankful for his family and wrote each name down. Then he asked me how to spell "oy" needless to say I was a bit confused. "Oy?" I said. "Yes, like toy box." He know that it started with T but was confused with the oy. McKenzie wrote her family and drew pictures of each person. It was amazing, I think that it was the quietest FHE we have ever had. Below are the pages the kids did- again I don't know how to rotate the pictues so just turn your head.

St. George Weekend

Last weekend we took a much neede trip down to St. George. We went with our good friends the Walton's. We spent our time having fun at the pool. Abby's favorite thing was jumping into the pool. Although we had to be careful with her. We forgot her life jacket so we were using some arm floaties. Her little arms were too skinny, sometimes she would slip right out of them- she didn't seem to mind too much going underwater. I guess that we have another waterdog in the family. McKenzie and Cameron enjoyed swimming as well now that they don't need floaties anymore.



The weather was so nice that we were also able to go to the playground a few times. Abby's favorite was the swings, McKenzie prefered the monkey bars and Cameron just wanted to run around and play football with the boys. Speaking of football... GO UTES!!!! Luckily we were able to get The Mountain on the TV and watched the Utes clobber the Cougs.



As you can tell we had a great time! It was sad to have to go back home. I could have stayed there another 5 days and be just happy. Oh well, there is always next time!

Brown Eyed Babes

These are my beautiful brown eyed babies.

Twins 5 1/2 years apart?

I can't firgure out how to rotate the top picture, but I am sure you can see what I mean. The first picture is of McKenzie 6 years ago. She was 20 months old. The second picture is of Abby this Halloween, she is 25 months old. Pretty similar to me.

Halloween

I was able to help out at McKenzie and Cameron's school Halloween parties. I love being able to go to their classes.


McKenzie had fun dressing up as Hannah Montana, Cameron was Superman and Abby was Raggedy Ann.
