Winter 2012

 This was our first big snowstorm!! 

The kids have been waiting for enough snow so they could put on their snowsuits

If you look really close you can see the 2 deer across the street from our house

Halloween 2012

 They love decorating sugar cookies!

 Lance slacked off on his "pumpkin carving" duty this year and so I had to help. Cayden's pumpkin is supposed to have to same expression! At least he thought it looked like that:)

Carlie wanted to be a Crazy Utah fan and Cayden was Iron Man. I think they each changed their minds 5 times before the final decision was made!!

Pumpkin Picking 2012

 It is always hilarious watching Cayden pick out his pumpkin!!

 He really wants this one so he is using every muscle he has to pick it up!!

Daddy Daughter Date

Carlie has been wanting to go to a Utah game forever!! She is always trying to get me to give her my ticket every time there is a game.  She was in heaven!! The smile never left her face the entire game!! She even got her very own Utah hat:)

Dance Company {Flash Mob}

Carlie danced in a "flash mob" at Gardner Village along with many other dance teams in Utah to help raise food for the Utah Food Bank. They all had to dress up like Zombies. There were so many people that came the dancers hardly had any room to move!! Hopefully a lot of food was donated:)

Dance Company {Homecoming Parade}

Carlie danced in a parade for Bingham High Schools Homecoming.
Carlie and her two best friends on her team! She looks so little until I found out they are 12 and 13:)

It was a little cold the end of September to be dressed like this!!

Carlie's dance team (minus 2 girls)

Walking back after the parade

Habitat Project

Cayden's first school project! He had to make a Habitat, he chose to make the Rainforest using his "monkey's in a barrel".

Back to School!!

Carlie's first day of 4th grade!

Cayden's first day of 1st grade!

This year we all got to go back to school! I am an instructor in a 3rd grade class! I also teach a group of 1st graders for reading and spelling and a group of 2nd graders for math. It is a LOT of work and has been overwhelming going back to work after being home for 6 years but I have loved it so far:) The kids love that I get to go to school everyday with them!!

Tour of Utah 2012

Lance took the kids to watch a leg of the Tour of Utah while I was working on Friday and they found some of the Liquigas race team taking a break! 

 Saturday we went to the leg of the race that ended at the top of Little Cottonwood Canyon. One of the cyclists tossed his water bottle to Cayden!! He thought that was pretty neat!!

You can't read it very well but we wrote with chalk on the road "GO TED KING"! Lance got to ride with him last year when Infinite Cycles rode with the Liquigas Team....

Lance got invited to go with a friend to several legs of the Tour of Utah and sit in the VIP section!!
