Basketball Season

Going in for a lay up...

Stealing the ball...

Just made a basket.




We signed Dagen up for basketball this year and had a great time watching him. Since he is younger they begin with a developmental league where they teach them the skills for the most of the time and then scrimmage for the last 10 minutes. I wasn't sure how he would like it but he ended up loving it and improved so much by the end of the season. He was actually grasping the game better each time he played. Now we are on the count down for baseball season.

Brekell Baptism

Brekell has been waiting for this day for a long time. She was excited to be baptised. We are proud of her for making the decision to do this. She is a great example in our house and a great big sister. After her baptism we had a little luncheon at out house and had our friends and family over for it. It was such a great day and Dave did an awesome job.

Christmas

Christmas was a lot of fun this year. I had a really hard time getting into the spirit of the season without snow. But it was still a success and so much fun. The kids all asked for comforter sets this year. That made it really easy for me.

We had such a great day and then headed to Delta to talk to Uncle Wyatt on his mission. It was so fun to talk to him and hear his voice. We all miss him a lot. It is weird to think he will be back for next Christmas.

Brekell turns 8!

Well the day came that Brekell has been anxiously waiting for. She finally turned 8. She has been counting down the days, not for a party or presents, because she finally was old enough to be baptised. This is a milestone she has been waiting for so she could be old enough. We did have a party for Brekell filled with cake decorating, nails painted, and movies with tons of snacks and goodies to eat. They were all sugared out after the decorating i'm sure.

We also had AUnt Jackie make a custom cake. She did such an amazing job. Brekell loved it to pieces.....

My CRAZY Gal!!!

So Braylie is quite the character. If you aren't quick with her, she gets the best of everything. In this picture one of the kids left their chair out and she is soooo quick to jump on board and have herself a snack... Love this little Gal so much!!!!

Pumpkin Carving

Braylie does not love the Camera!

Dad showing them how it's done.

Daxie waiting for assistance (aka...she just wants Dad to do hers:)

Dagen getting grossed out. haha

So we had a lot of fun carving the pumpkins this year. The kids were still unsure about cleaning them out, but they shortly got the hang of it and weren't grossed out anymore. I am loving the ages of my kids right now. They all are so fun and just enjoy things. I can't wait for Braylie to get slightly older so she can enjoy the fun times too. During the whole pumpkin carving Braylie watched from her chair and just gave us dirty looks. (f you know my baby,you know dirty looks are given a lot:)

Behind; Halloween

Daxlyn found the "perfect" pumpkin!
Dave and the kiddos...

Fun activities...

Brekell and her find!

Yes, I know I am behind. Between all the craziness this last month, I am trying to keep somewhat updated, hopefully:) So Halloween was a lot of fun this year. We went to the pumpkin patch and got our pumpkins this year. It was so much fun to take a hay ride to get them. The kids absolutely loved it. I would totally suggest it to anyone with little kids, they will have a blast. Anyway, the kids loved picking out their pumpkins and playing in the maze. I am such a terrible mom and the day of Halloween I didn't get any pics of the kids. I know mother of the year right? But in my defense I was about through with the holiday in the middle of October. It was that kind of month:)
