Ogden's Christmas Village.....

Our family,The Kap's, The Povey's, and The Jensen's went to the christmas village last friday night it was coldest night this year and of course that was the night that we chose to go venture out doors...we thawed the kids hands with hot coaco "don't worry though Brylee ended up wearing it"

Brylee was not to keen on Santa, however she didn't hesitate to snatch the candy from him on the way out.

Davin told Santa that he had been good ALL year and that he wanted a batman car and a jingle bell for christmas...

My suprise to my Husband

December 5th my grandma's birthday had to be cut short because I had suprised Ryan with tickets to....Gary Allen!


Jack Ingram and Eli Young Band opened for him It was the Best show that we have ever been too..All were awesome entertainers.

Suprise....

On Decenber 5th we had a suprise birthday party for Grandma Kay at the praire schooner it was fanastic and she was really suprised i thought that she was going to fall over..


All of the grandkids colored pictures of what they love most about Grandma Kay and my sister Mjika made a wonderful book and now my grandma says that she wants to be buried with!!!

My parents gave her 75 long stem roses....they were B-E-A-utiful

Giving Thanks...

For Thanksgiving we loaded up and headed to Yuma, AZ to spend the holiday with Ryan's 2 sisters and thier families.





We had so much fun and we even hopped the border to Mexico for a day of shopping, Pina Coladas and Margaritas
Yumm...5 days was not long enough I just wish that it was not such a drive...

Black Family Pumpkin Patch....

We use to go to Sacco's fruit stand every year for pumpkin pickin' but now it is a tadition that every spring my parents pant plenty of pumpkins for all of the grand kids..so harvesting them is so much fun and a great excuse to all get together...

The pumpkins are picked!

Davin asked his grandpa to gut his pumpkin....

.....While Daddy guts Brylee's lil guy...

After about two hours of guttin' and carvin' the pumpkin's are finished and ready for candles!

Huntin' Ghosts....

So Ryan and I along with his parents, Tiffany & family "Ryan's cousin", Bruse & Sharlee "Ryan's Aunt" all went on our first real live ghost hunt! What was I thinking? Honestly if I ever ever saw a ghost I am pretty sure I would die...just kill right over...

It all began in the lobby of the Union Station like if that place is not creepy enough...might as well turn off all of the lights and stumble around searching for the non living...

HOLY COW...Why are Ryan's eyes so big did he see a ghost?

Is this a ghost in the picture? We'll never know? I took a picture of Ryan but why didn't he show up? Ryan says it was the flash reflecting off of his white hat but I think that it may have been an Entity!

AWE HA! Did we capture a Entity in the picture? Apparently...it was just dust.. Or was it?

Thriller....

So Davin and I went to "THRILLER" with our neighbors Jen and Bodey...We had a blast it was our first time seeing it and I must say that it will have to be a Halloween tradition...This year we just did a mommy-son date night because Ryan was workin' but we all had a blast...and cant wait until next year....

I'm busy...Workin'

So Brylee thinks that she is older than 1 some days...She is just paying bills bein' big at the computer.
She has no Idea that i'm here right now!

The great outdoors.....

Brylee went camping with her Grandma and Grandpa...It was her first time without mom and dad for 2 days...by the looks of this picture she didn't miss us at all!

Oh if your wondering that is a HUGE fish that she is hugging....

Just Because...

The other day when I got home from work the house was clean and these flowers were on the counter...What can I say my husband is pretty GREAT!

Brunch at Mima's

The other weekend we went to have brunch over at Mima's house. The kids have so much fun over there...There is so much to look at fish,squirrels, birds it is like a little hide away her house reminds me of the movie the secret garden.

Busted! Brylee was helping herself to so homemade pies that Mima made...
Davin is bein' sill on the swing that he just could not get enough of...

Davin's 1st day of school!

So it was Davin's first day of school...I didn't want to be that embarrassing mother who walked him inside, took pictures and peaked in the windows afterwards but unfortunately i was all of the above...Davin was so embarrassed when he busted me peeking in the window! He pointed at me and said YOU!!! so I took that as my clue that it was time to leave. I just can't believe that he is betting so BIG.

Happy Birthday to Brylee...

GO Davin GO!!!

Davin had his first game on Saturday...That boy can really play we posted a clip of him scoring his very first goal! It is so funny watch him afterwards he gets so shy he is not quite sure on what to do

Camp Out!!!

Davin & Bodey wanted to have a camp out last Saturday soooo....
We set up a tent in the garage. They only lasted for about 2 hours and then they ended up on our living room floor "they said that they got too hot" I think that they just got nervous.

What is wrong with the GRASS?

So the sprinklers were broke and everytime they would come on the grass would blow up look like a huge bubble...the kids loved to play on it, I'm not going to lie it was fun to walk on...

Graduation Day...

Davin is 6 days away from starting KINDERGARTEN time goes by so fast. These are some pictures of Davin graduating from pre-school at Kay's kiddie care he is getting so big...

Davin was so excited to graduate...Look how adorable his homemade cap and gown are.. his class made them out of garbage sacks. Davin has gone to Kay's since he was 18 months old they have been great and we'll miss all of the fun times and friends that he has made there.

Davin is showing off his new golf clubs that he got for graduation...

Alta, Wyoming

We went to Alta to the "teepee" for my cousin Tayolr's wedding it was so good to get away for the weekend plus I got to see family that I have not seen for 20 years!!
Nothing has changed up there still the same as I remember "last time I was there I was only 5"

Here we are the road worriers!!! 4.5 hours to go...

After the wedding we went down by the river and had Maytlin "our neice" to take some family pictures they turned out pretty good...
