Phoenix for the Day.

No matter what I do I can't get the pictures to turn the

right way. Sorry you will have to turn your head.

We got so tired of the cold weather we hopped a plane

to Phoenix where the sun always shines.

It was so nice. We went to Rawhide and got to do

a lot of fun things. We panned for gold, rode a stage coach, train

and burrows(even though Meg thinks she is too old for

this.) There were stunt shows to watch.

The highlight of the day was Nick and I doing the mechanical

bull. My 2 second ride was a rival to Nicks 5 seconds.

I think we may join the rodeo circut.

Ice Skating with Santa

One of our favorite things is Skating With Santa.

This year it was so nice. The weather was good and

we did spent a lot of time on the ice. This is

something we look forward to every year.

Christmas is Coming.

You know it is the Season when you decorate the tree

and do Gingerbread houses.

Disneyland

We went to Disneyland. It was so crowded. It was the opening

day of the Holiday Season. We had a great time. Lucas got

to ride the Indiana Jones ride for his first time. We got to

do it 3 times. We then went to the beach. It was so nice.

Yea for warm weather. Later we went miniture golfing.

I am pretty sure since I got 2 holes in 1 and dad still won

he cheated!

Halloween

The kids has so much fun carving pumkins.

Besides all the candy this is their favorite part.

Meg carved a bat flying by the moon and Lucas

did Madusa. Nick carved the tiny one in the

middle. We didn't want it to be too hard for him.

Lucas wanted to be a Ghostbuster at the last minute

he decided not to wear his proton pack. Luckily all

the ghost were friendly. Meg was Pippy Longstocking.

She thought it was so funny to have her hair sticking out.

I am pretty sure that is why she picked that costume.

Luke's Birthday

Luke turned 9 and he was so excited he got up early

to open his presents before Nick left for work. Only

to find out Nick had the day off. He has been

asking for Animal Crossing forever. All his cousins have

it and he couldn't wait to play with them. He also

got a basketball hoop. Sadly then it snowed the next week.

I Always Seem to Play Catch Up.

We went to Cedar City for the weekend to see

Adam and Jenny. We had such a good time. We

got to see SUU's football team barely lose their game,

and their volleyball team kick butt.

We also got to do a nice hike at Cedar Breaks.

It was very nice even though a little cold. We did

get to see the fall colors starting to show which was

a nice treat. Luckily we made our flight so Adam

didn't have to entertain us another night. Since it has

been nonstop visitor for them for the last month.

Megan get to do safety patrol at school. She

loves it and looks forward to her classes turn.

Which doesn't come up soon enough.

Nick and I did a early anniversary trip. We went

to Indianapolis and watched the Manning brothers

battle it out on the field. Too bad the Giants decided

to take this night off.

Megan turned 12. She was very excited to join

Young Womens. She couldn't wait to start going

to their weekly activities. She is loving every minute

of it. I must say she is doing great a volleyball and

her team has won 2 out of 3 games. Yeah!!!
