Farewell to Roxy

We wanted to let everyone know that Roxy was killed tonight. She was hit by a truck while we were visiting Olinselot's parents. We are so sad that she is gone, and it’s difficult to see such a sweet member of our family pass on. We loved her very much.

Christmas Time

Buster and Gickos are really fun this year. They both "get it" it's crazy cause I thought I'd have another year or so of explaining, and convincing them that Santa is coming. Buster speaks of Santa on a daily basis and Gickos is most just excited to rip into all those shiny gifts under the tree. This picture was taken right after we got our tree up, they LOVED IT! They stood right by my side as I pulled out each decoration in hopes of being chosen to put it on the tree. What's on their list this year you ask? Well when I received the Wal-Mart wish list book, they went through and cut out the pictures of all the stuff they wanted and glued them on a letter for Santa.

Buster's list: Red Lightsaber, Go Diego Go Movie, Transformers, Slippers, V-Tech gaming system, and CANDY

Gicko's List: A full-sized fourwheeler to ride at Grandpa's house, Spiderman the movie, a new blue bike, transformers, hotwheels race track, and a bike riding video game.

It's so fun to have them a little older, we are very excited to visit Cousins for Christmas. We love you all Merry Christmas!

Winter Wonderland

Saturday I spent the day cross-country skiing at Herriman State Park. This was my first visit to the park, and it was so fun! All the trees, lakes, and rivers were amazing, it was like 17 degrees, but when you're skiing it's so much work that you spend more time sweating than anything. It was a blast, we're going again Tuesday!! YAY!

Gickos

This is what Gickos likes to do. He loves throwing sand at all the sweet little girls in those cute ruffled swim suits. Not so much to make them cry, just so he can see what their swim suits look like covered in muddy sand. He made three kids cry one day...which is funny in it's self, but they were all twice his age. Our little bully loves the water as much as his brother, he especially likes kayaking down mild rapids. He's definitely a thrill-seeker.

Buster

Buster loves the water! We spent many days at the sandbar here in St.Anthony hanging out with friends and getting really nice tans. As you can see he's our little surfer boy with his blonde hair, blue eyes, and tan skin. He would swim everyday during the winter if we had somewhere to go.

Summer Days

This summer we have been able to go kayaking, fishing, swimming, and a lot of hanging out. Our number one goal when we moved back to St. Anthony was to do something fun everyday. As fun as it may sound, it was at times difficult with two little boys, but we pulled it off. Here are some of the things we were able to do.
