Just Being Kids!

Rebekah and Buddy found out that my new camera is great fun! They took turns taking pictures of them self and everything around them.

Merry Christmas!

We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!

Halloween Fun!

With the help of Brad and Liz we carved pumpkins for the first time since Brandon and I got married. (Wow almost ten years!) It was lots of fun and lots of work will see if it happens again.

Buddy was not so sure about pulling the seeds out with his bare hands.

Rebekah made a witch cat.


My kids love to try to match there Halloween costumes. This year they were Bat man and Bat Girl. It took Bekah a lot of talking to get her brother to be Bat man but once he got the costume he loved it!

Didn't know Bats could be so cute!

Fall Fun!

October was great! Brandon's sister Heather came to town with her family and we were able to go to Gardner Villages and decorate pumpkins. Unfortunately my camera was not holding a charge so I wasn't able to get pic but it was great to have them here. We also went to the "Scarecrow Fest" this year with Brandon's baby brother Brad his wife Liz and there daughter Maggie. We had so many fun activities for ever age. I don't know who had the most fun the kids or the parents. We have never gone but we had some much fun we can't wait to do it again next year!

I bought these pants last May (or Brittney did) this is Amber...updating her blog because I am so proud of my sis! She is awesome! She even got some awesome real running shoes (saucony) they really are great shoes!

Both kids in school! what will I do?

This last week both of my kids started school. That's right I have three hours to myself! I was worried that I wouldn't know what to do with myself and that I would find myself bored and going crazy. Luckly I have been very busy and three hours somedays isn't enough.

Rebekah is in 1st grade this year at a new school, Sage Hill elementary. She is loving school espeacially lunch and rescue but is not sure that she likes being at school all day.

Buddy started Kindergarten at Sage Hill also. I asked him after the first day of school how it was and he replied," boring". I have a feeling this year for Buddy is going to be a long one but cross my fingers for the best.

Sorry No Pics.

So I don't have any pics..well because this is Amber writing a blog post for Brittney :-) Anyways I just wanted to say how awesome she is because she has been eating really really good and has recently picked up running. When I was in utah last I ran her very first whole mile with her and she was so excited and it made me remember how excited I was the first time I did that.

We have a goal that if she can build up to 3.2 miles (WHICH SHE WILL :-) I will come run the freedom run 5 k with her next year.

Lastly the greatest thing of all, she is DOWN 25 LBS!!!! Boo ya that is awesome.

I might come up to Utah in September for a triathlon and BYU game and if so I think she definitely deserves some shopping!
