Time for the yearly photo

It has basically become a tradition to update this blog once a year...after we attend the Eagle Mountain City tree lighting ceremony and the visit with Santa at City Hall. With that, here is the yearly photo and blog update. (perhaps it will be updated more this coming year, but who knows)

paint and more paint

We have been busy this week getting the boys room painted. Bunk beds are hopefully going up tomorrow afternoon. They are so excited to share a room. Pictures of the finished room will be forthcoming. Oh, and next Wednesday we find out the gender of Baby X.

Happy Birthday Dillon!

Ethan had too much 3-D movie...

Dillon on his 6th Birthday. I love you Dillon!!!

Christmas 2009

I thought it would be fitting to post another Santa picture, seeing as that is the last thing I posted. It is even at the same place as last year (Eagle Mtn City Hall). I will try and do better this year. I hope 2010 will be a good year for everyone. God Bless!

Christmas Fun

We took the boys to the Eagle Mountain tree lighting ceremony last Friday. It was cold, but there were kids singing from a local high school, and then Santa came, which made it all worthwhile. The line to see him was insanely long, and we ran into our friends Jared and Jenny there, so Jared and I took Ethan and Gage, his boy, back to their house while Valerie and Jenny waited with Dillon and Hunter to see Santa.

I cant belive it....

Dillon started pre-school last week. That means next year he is in Kindergarten. This is happening too fast! Next thing I know he will be graduating from High School. Well, at least he loves it. He always talks about what he is learning and always has projects to show me after I get home. He even loves his (optional) homework. Let's hope that love of homework continues (as well as his love for yardwork, housework, etc).

Time for updates.

Thought it was time to post some more pictures. Things are going well. We are just living life and enjoying the little moments.

Dillon on the 4th. It was fun to have everyone over for dinner and fireworks.

We took a small weekend trip to St. George and on the way home we stopped at Cove Fort. I thought Dillon would have liked sitting in the wagon, but apparently it was too much for him to handle. However, Ethan seemed fine.

Here we are on top of the fort. Ethan had kicked his shoe off, of course.

Dillon and Ethan driving the jeep on a walking trail near our house. Ethan loves riding in the jeep as Dillon drives. He keeps busy changing the radio stations.

There they go.
