GO HORNETS!!!!


Mitch is holding the trophy.





My little brother Mitch was the quarterback on the Oakley HS Football team. They had an awesome 12-0 Season this year, ending as Idaho State Champions!!!!

Here are a couple of links to the local news station. The first one was when he was selected as Athlete of the week. The second one was when he was interviewed after they won the state championship. These are links to the articles...there are video links on the articles...be sure to watch them! (Mitch is #8.)

We are so proud of him (and SAD that we couldn't go to any of the games!!!)

And we're back...

To all of our loyal blogger audience.  I apologize for our long absence... 

In in the duration since my last post, we have had two additions to our family. 

and...


We have loved having the MacBook Pro.  I will be honest, I was a hard sell, not because I was opposed to the idea of switching to Apple, but because I didn't want to shell out the dough!  But it has been a great purchase, I get to use it every fourth evening from 8:45-9:15 (isn't Kyle generous :) )  However, I do really miss my friend "right click"...(I know, I know, two fingers and then click gets the job done, but it just isn't the same...)

We had a really great Thanksgiving.  We went to Brice and Camille's house.  I think that I mention this is every post, but we love going up there.  They make us feel so at home, and it has been really good getting to know their kids better.  Camille's brother Lewis and his family were there.  They have two little girls: an 18-month old and a newborn, so that was really fun.  We watched football, ate a ton of food, played games, shopped 'til we dropped, chopped down a Christmas tree, went to Jessica's basketball game, went bowling, slept, ate, slept, and ate.  








*notice Malyssa's bumpers
(sorry Jessica, none of your bowling pictures turned out...you would have been mad if I posted them)

We are VERY excited that we get to spend Christmas at "home" with our families.  We fly into SLC on Christmas eve evening (we are hoping for a brown Christmas) and are planning to drive straight to Oakley, spend a few days there and then head back to Lindon until January 3rd.  

**OK I rescind my comment about how I love our new computer.  This was my first post using the new computer and it took me over an hour to just format it.  I didn't think that I was an old dog..but I am definitely having a hard time learning this new trick.
