We loved the sand dunes in snow canyon! They were so fun and the sand felt great! We had a blast jumping off the big hills and just rolling around in the sand and racing each other. Brady did always win, PHBBT!

SOOOOO CUTE!

We went to snow canyon, where Brady had been as a boy and we explored all around. Lucy loved the hiking and climbing in the red rock and playing in the little caves "just her size"!

This is where all of the excitement is coming from! He loves this squirrel! Brielle has one and he loved it so much that when she let him borrow it, he was really sad when the time came to give it back. So, since he is such a great kid, I searched the internet for it and we found the exact squirrel that he wanted. For these pictures, he was excited because it just came in the mail!

he kids loved these homemade Popsicles even in the dead of winter. I think it helped with Lucy's teething. Later I would also learn that Lucy LOVES to be cold

Thanksgiving Feast


My Mom, Joe, Sean Amber, Trevor, Matix Jay, Amy and some of her friends were all there for the Thanksgiving Feast!

November 2005
Happy Thanksgiving! We had the Feast at our house this year and this was my first Turkey! It was quite fun and very exciting. It actually turned out great, (or so everyone said. I don't really know since I am a vegetarian.) Lucy is asleep in this picture :( So we had to take the picture without her. We were sad about that, but we had a great day. We had everyone from my side of the family there. It was fun! Lucy and Beanie love to get together with Matix Jay!

Grandpa and Lucy

November 2005
Grandpa loves Lucy. We visit with Grandpa pretty much every Thursday and the kids definitely look forward to it. They go running into his lap and give him wonderful kisses and love. We all look forward to hearing Grandpa's stories and advice on Grandpa Thursdays!

Crazy Lucy!

November 2005
Lucy has a very fun crazy side to her. She knows how to make a person laugh and she has an unquenchable desire to laugh herself. She even has a courtesy laugh which she has had since she was about three months old, where she is trying to laugh, but it is not quite her real laugh. It is really quite hilarious! She is constant fun!
November 2005
Well sadly Meow never did come back. We hope that he found a wonderful family that loved him as much as we did. We called animal shelters and the Humane Society and he never showed up. He is missed, especially by Beanie

October 2005
Benjamin at Grandma Patty's house with two of her puppies. The grandkids LOVE her puppies and we go over there and visit them pretty often when there are new puppies. We usually visit with Amber and Matix once a week.
Beanie (as is his nickname) is an absolutely wonderful kid. His sweet tender ways make me so proud of him as an older brother. He takes such great care of his sweet sister. He adores her and always treats her like a princess. He is growing up and getting so big! We are so proud of the amazing boy that he is.

Lucy the mover!

October 2005
Lucy is definitely moving now! Look at those gorgeous eyes! Lucy is all fun in every way. She is a joy to be with. She is so easy and such a delight to take care of and play with. She loves being mobile and she is very proud of herself and we are very proud of her!
