Cooper's first field trip

Cooper has the best pre-school teacher ever. He just absolutely adores Miss Jenny! For Halloween they have done so many fun things, but one of the best was his field trip to Hee Haw farms in PG. You'll see from the pictures below that there were so many things to do and the weather was just perfect! Sorry there are a ton of pictures I just love them all.Cooper class

Cooper happy....
Cooper alittle nervous. They went up and down these slides so many times and their faces all have sheer terror on them until they hit the bottom and they just lite up with excitement. Then they would run up and do it all over again!
Miles (one of Noah's friends, his little brother was on the field trip)
Evan... as Cooper calls him Eben.

Miss Jenny brought donuts and drinks for everyone to enjoy after they picked their own pumpkin! What a fun day!!!

A night with friends

We had Cy and Jordyn come over to play one night. We always love it when they come hang out, all the kids get alone so well and have a blast playing. I think kids are immune from the cold, it was freezing outside, but they still had to go jump! At least they had a blast. Then we decorated some Halloween cupcakes. This year has been so busy and we weren't able to find time to have a Halloween party, so cupcakes will have to do.Cy, Jordyn, Cooper, and Noah

Park City Skeleton Race

This is the last year for us to see Noelle race up in Park City. We all have such a great time going up so we pulled Noah out of school and went up on Friday as a family and then me and the boys went up again on Saturday with my Mom and Kiara. We had a great time and Noelle took first place which put her on the World Cup Team.Noelle at the start

What responsible parents we are letting our children wrestle around in front of cars. They sure were having a great time though!
Love this picture with the flag in the background

BYU Boys

I love my BYU boys. The little ones are not into the games yet, but they sure enjoy wearing their BYU shirts and yelling 'Go Cougars'. Last weekend it was an exciting day for Tommy, "A once in a life time chance" to go see ESPN broadcast Game Day from the BYU stadium. Since there's all the excitement over busting the BCS we had to make signs and support all the work that Matt is doing with the playoffpac.com. So you can see the poster's below. It's been a long time since I've made posters like that, I remember back in the day we used opac (sp?) machines and over head projectors... gotta love laptops and projectors, it still took us 2 hours though. Tommy had a great time and his poster made it on TV sevral times before they took it away (evidently they didn't like the idea of the BSC = Bribery, Coruption, and Scandal).

1st day of speech

Today was Cooper's first day of speech therapy. He goes every Tuesday for 20 mins. At first I was thinking 20 mins wasn't long enough to get anything done, but any longer than that and he would have lost all interest. His teacher started with the letter k, so we're working on that sound all week. His teacher is great and really made it alot of fun for him. Let's hope it works!

It's that time of year...

Flu season is on it's way. So today the boys went to get their flu shots. Noah was one tough dude, he just sat there and took the shot like a man! Cooper on the other hand not so much... maybe next year. The hot bitter tears were done with by the time we left the room though. Tyson just had his 4 month well baby, he is growing but not nearly as fast I thought he was. He's only 12lbs 11oz, and 25 inches long. Which puts him in the 11% for weight. Noah and Cooper both dropped off the charts by 6 months. Let's see if we can keep Tyson on for 2 more months, time to pack on the weight! Since the boys were so brave we made a stop by the dollar store, every little kids dream come true I think. How nice is it to spend a dollar on a cheap toy that brings them such great happiness, then when they get bored with it a few weeks later you throw it away. Ahhh it's the best!
