BCS Bound!! (again)

Go Utes! We are so excited that the Utes clobbered BYU. I think Max Hall should get the MVP.

I love Fall

We have had a very busy fall. When you are in the middle of all the hectic carpooling, eating hot dogs at the ballpark, and not sure if it's going to be too hot or too cold at the games, you can't wait till it's all over. And then it is! Then you find yourself with all this free time. I find myself missing the soccer, football, baseball, and softball games. We love watching our kids play sports!

I love fall! Riding my bike with friends up the monument or around Fruita's country roads is so beautiful especially this time of year. I'm sad to think I won't be able to ride my bike for months. I love watching the leaves change and the slight chill in the air with the sun shining on your face. The only problem with fall is it goes by too fast and then winter is upon us!

Where does the time go?

It seems like yesterday that he was carrying around his blanket with his thumb in his mouth. He was so cute.

I can't believe that Jaxon is 8 years old and is now baptized. He has always been my little buddy. I love him so much. He is such a good kid. He is highly motivated. He does great at school and in sports, but most of all he so loving. He is caring and kind. We love you Jaxon.

Halloween fun!

We had a great Halloween. We all dressed up this year. Jaxon and Taylor were Karate dudes! Cydney was a 80's preppy girl. Paityn was Snow White. Doug was Nacho Libre. I was a Jazzercise aerobic teacher. Doug took Cydney, Jaxon and Taylor to a haunted house. They were terrified but they tried to play tough!

Palin Power!!

Sarah Palin came to Grand Junction last night. We decided to go down and listen to her speak. There were 15-20 thousand people there. We were able to shake her hand and meet her family. She was awesome!! She talked to Taylor and of course I started to cry! It was a really cool moment. I wish she was on the top of the ticket.

I love this country and it was really fun to watch the political process. We had a the Gibbs, Bairs, Nelsons, and the Grays there with us.

Jaxon turns 8

Jaxon turned eight this year, so we decided to do one last big birthday bash. We rented a bump and jump and they had a blast!! I don't know where the years have gone. I can't believe the little boy who carried his blankee and sucked his thumb is now 8 years old. We are so proud of Jaxon. He is a great kid!

I can't believe the air the kids were getting. I'm pretty sure they broke all the rules. Were just lucky nobody got hurt. Paityn started to get a little brave herself. Look at the air she got!! She is just crazy!
