Graham's Baptism!
Graham was Baptised as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints this November 2009. He was very proud to do this. He is a great example to us of choosing the right and serving others. He is a great example to his friends around him too. He is a very special spirit in our home and we are so blessed he is with us today. We are proud of you Graham!

Santa Santa Santa
The only one who would sit on Santa's lap. Little miss sunshine. She is all about telling Santa what she wants for Christmas. When the kids did there Christmas list's each fit on a page. Not Brinley! Her list was 4 pages long and could probably have kept going if grandpa's hand wasn't tired of writing :)

Trick or Treating! We had three little fairies this year and a Jango Fhett. Graham (8) lasted about a block and was back to play Wii or DS. Jalen (6) lasted about a block and a half and wanted to just hand out the candy. Brinley (5) and Keaton (2) lasted for about 4-5 blocks. They figured out the more houses the MORE CANDY! They are our sweet tooth girls!

We painted our pumpkins this year. The kids loved it. It was easier because there were no sharp objects or pouting because when we cut in the wrong place and they could all do it on there own. They painted there hearts out and had such creativity. The kids were very proud to show there pumpkins to anyone and everyone that came by over the holiday. Much detail and stories where told about this special Halloween activity. That was really spontaneous because Jeff and I didn't feel like carving pumpkins.

Jalen did mustang soccer this year. This is her after she played against a team with most of her school friends on it. At first she said she wasn't going to score any goals against them because she didn't want to hurt there feelings. Then we talked about her doing her best and they will do there best too. It is all in fun. She loves soccer. She is playing on an indoor team now with girls she played with on indoor last year. Soccer is great exercise for her since shee is always moving, climbing, jumping, running, etc.

We are officially into scouts! Graham is loving it. He has invited 2 school friends to be in his Den. He has a great group of boys. They have 17 boys so they are split into 2 Dens. They should have alot of fun as they grow up together with such a large group of boys the same age.

Jalen was her own stylist today. She did a great job replicated 'Joe Dirt' it was hard not to laugh. Then I had to fix this situation. First a quick bob cut at great clips...well...NO! They can't do that there so I found out the hard way. I don't know which was worse, Jalen's or the professional. So, off to a salon now. Now, I am paying for 2 haircuts. Finally, she gets it right. Jalen loves it and so do I. The scissors and put up high very high now.
