So I am not sure why, but I don't seem to have any pictures of my sister Emily's wedding. I know John took a whole bunch, but I am wondering if he forgot to save them on our computer.... ? I also have nothing from John's little sister Bekah's wedding open house that we attended in October, we do have a few pics from the trip, but none of Bekah and her new husband.... weird. And nothing from Thanksgiving either!!!!! I know I can dig up these pics from other people who were there, but I probably won't bother until I actually sit down to scrapbook it. So... for the sake of getting my blog caught up, the weddings were beautiful, and Thanksgiving was great!

December I didn't do great either, I don't know where our Christmas pics are. But it was a great month. We went to Temple square and saw the lights, we went to NM and saw a friend of mine from high school get baptized. Oh, Liberty turned 4, she is sooo grown up!! Plus we had a great Christmas!

January, my baby brother got married on the 3rd, and I know for a fact that John forgot to get copies for us. He took all the pics, but he used his dad's camera so he downloaded them all to my parents computer.


Ok, that is that for now. I hope to have this baby next week and then be so diligent about updating my blog that everyone will be amazed... especially me!!!!!!!!

Halloween!!!

Trick or Treating in the Neighborhood......

John and Uncle Ben were football players, Patriot was a vampire, and Libby was a princess! The Spiderman is our neighbor Christian! Rocky just pretended to be tough.

Liberty took this picture of cheerleader mom and football player dad at Patriot's Halloween parade at school. He walked by so fast though that we couldn't get a good pic of him!

August 2008 KINDERGARTEN!!!!!

Patriot's first day of kindergarten!!! Mom cried, and I have to say I still get a little misty everytime I drop him off. Just watching this little tiny guy walk all alone in to that big school! But he has done soooooo great this year, making new friends and learning how to read. Patriot is such a good big brother to Libby and is always happy to play all day with her. He is so grown up and responsible, he makes his bed all by himself nearly every day, and often makes breakfast for the whole family. Sometimes it is just a matter of getting bowls and spoons for everyone and pulling out the cereal and milk, but more often than not he will pull out the frozen waffles, pop them in the the toaster oven and call everyone in to eat when they are ready! What a kid!!!


And this is our Gorgeous Liberty! I have some super cute pics of her first day of Preschool, but for some reason blogger doesn't recognize them and I cant get them to load. So this is a pic from October... oh well, she is still adorable!! She has done really well in Preschool this year and says she doesn't ever want to go to a different school, (which is good cause she has a whole 'nother year of preschool) Libby is just as tall as Patriot but she weighs a little more, many of our friends have a hard time remembering which one is older! She is really tall for her age. I often get asked if they are twins.

Liberty has done great in preschool, she is learning letters and sign language as well as a little spanish. She loves all animals and would really love a small dog, (like our neighbor's chihuahua that she is holding in this picture) or a cat. Unfortunately for her one enormous boxer is all this house and this family can hold for now!
Here is a picture of the big guy playing with our neighbor's chihuahua, Luna. Rocky is so gentle and cute with her, I have to admit he is a great dog! Luna's owner is a 4 year old boy so he comes over often to play and usually brings Luna too, she was a little leery about Rocky at first, but soon learned she had nothing to fear.
