We are so proud of Brynn.  She just finished her first big project in sewing class.  She has loved it, and is now making clothes for Carley and Jensen's stuffed animals.  

Fall Happenings











We had a fun week last week.  My mom and Jillian and her two kids came out to Utah for the week.  It was a little chilly, but beautiful.  We took the kids to Thanksgiving point, and to a lot of soccer games.  Carley rode a horse for the first time, and I accidentally erased all my video and pics of her, Jensen, and Berkeley trying to figure out my new camera.  Oh well.  My mom was great.  She babysat almost everyday.  I think we ate lunch and dinner out every day except for Sunday, we saw a movie in the middle of the day and felt like we were ditching school, and we got to go shopping in Salt Lake till our feet hurt and we were out of money.  Thanks Mom for spoiling us and giving us a break to remember that we are still girls.

Braden's soccer team made it all the way to State Cup finals, but lost in the last minute 3-2.  It was so close and we were so proud of him and his team.  It has been so fun to watch him and the other kids progress.  He literally dribbled through three players at the end of the game.  All the kids were good sports about going, as long as there were plenty of treats; and you'll notice, Jensen has a new obsession with leaves.  He thinks they are great, and is always picking them up and saying how beautiful they are.  It's pretty funny.
Unfortunately, I think fall is almost gone because it snowed yesterday. Yikes!!

Love your house!

I just wanted to give Whitney and Gordon props for a job well done.  I haven't seen it in person yet, but your home looks amazing, and am in awe that you guys did almost all of it yourselves.  That takes true patience, vision, and as I saw, a lot of RED BULL.  Can't wait to visit you guys.  I promise, my kids won't touch anything.
