Rushing the Field!

 

What a game and what a touchdown! It was a great moment for the boys when they went down on the field after the game. Tanner was on cloud 9!

Good Ole Hungry Bear

 

Every year on the day after Thanksgiving...yes, on Black Friday, all the grandkids on Brandon's side go shopping at the dollar store for each other and then go out to eat at The Hungry Bear. It is a pizza restaurant in Layton. It is a very fun tradition and our kids really look forward to it every year. They buy gifts for all the kids on their list and then get to go eat pizza courtesy of Grandma and Grandpa! Afterward, we go back to Grandma's to wrap all the presents. With four kids, let's just say I was wrapping for a while. I think I became permanently attached to the floor! Although Tanner did wrap some of his own which was kind of cute. It was a good Thanksgiving this year, complete with good food, family, the Thanksgiving craft, cousins, and Beatles Rockband...Tanner's new obsession!

Fun in the Leaves part II

 

Kelly's Wedding

 

Brandon's brother Kelly got married on November 14 in the Bountiful Temple. It was a crazy day for us! We were gone from the house by 8 am. We had a babysitter all day for the kids...her name is Lisa and she is one of the Laurels in my ward. She was great and I knew the kids were in good hands! Gavin really liked her. My mom picked up Megan at noon and took her to her dance performance at Thanksgiving Point's Gingerbread Festival. They brought home gingerbread men for all the kids to decorate. Looks like they enjoyed it.

 

We came home at almost 3. Then I had to bathe Megan and get all the kids ready to go up to the reception in West Point. We had to be there by 5! Megan's hair didn't dry in time, but I did manage to snag Angie to do her hair for a few pictures. Phew! I was panicked. Stress and pregnancy do not mix well!!! I think by the end of the reception, cleaning up, an Arby's run and the trip home it was probably 11 or so. Probably especially exhausting with the circumstances I am under! All in all a lovely day...beautiful wedding, luncheon and reception.
