So here goes my appology. Boo. Sorry these pics havent made it here before now, but, hey SEVEN new posts in one day!! Just as sorry are the pics. of my kiddos not updated on the side. I WILL get to that in the next month!!

Carson's Arrow of Light


These pictures are a little backwards, but oh well! The arrow of light was done on the stage in the church since it was too cold to go outside like we usually do. Sean Phillips got his the same night as Carson.



Here Carson just crossed over the bridge and gave him momma a hug!! LOVED it! I call my scout shirt my maternity shirt even tho I AM NOT PREGNANT, I sure look it every time I wear this shirt! Maybe that's why the other leaders don't wear the yellow ones, only the Weblos leaders wear brown!!





Sean after he crossed the bridge with his mom, Jen, Weblos leader, Kris Duffin, and our den leader, Denver Driscoll. Looks like Denver has several words of wisdom for him!!







Sitting by our "campfire" listening to the story of Akela!




Colton's Baptism pictures


As promised, the two newest members of the church! Colton and Taylor Potts! Taylor is the second tallest kid in the 2nd grade!!










I love this picture of my kiddos! Of course, Weston isn't cooperating, but what else do you expect from a two year old?!

Pinewood Derby 2011


Here is the bunch of boys with their awards! Mason, I can tell you are standing next to kids two years younger than you!!


Denver and . . .  wait, Rhet, how did you join our ward? Ha ha!







MY WOLVES!! Aren't they cute?!! LOVE THEM! Cole P., Dawson D., Colton, and Luke D.  Proud scout leader talking!


















Colton's army hum vee. Yep, sideways, but there it is. We also made the stands for our wood project in wolves and Colton painted his for "Tiger Pride". Seriously that kid has so much school spirit!







The cars! There were some pretty awesome ones again this year!








Misc. pics from our crazy life!


Here we go, some random pics! Here are the boys on their first day of school. Look how cool my 5th grader is compared to the 2nd grader! (Or so he thinks!!) Ha ha! I think it's cute that Colton is wearing his tiger pride shirt instead of new clothes! Man is he dedicated!!



Our first snow they could actually play in for the year! They were outside all day. Dang. I bought boots and everything too early this year. That is why we haven't had the snow!!





The snow started falling and Weston and Carson RAN out to shovel. We missed the snow this year!!






SPIDERMAN!! He loves to wear his hat around the house!









Seriously an outfit she put on one day. I am seeing a theme here, tho. Hats indoors. I promise you our house is warm enough! Ohh, this could be one I use to get her later in life!










This summer we went to Utah with Michelle, Lyndsey, and Sierra. SOOOO much fun!! Shell and Sierra had to get a few things at the mall, so we went to the moon and waited for awhile! Weston looks tired, but the science discovery center was awesome!!








Halloween 2011


Here is my CRAZY5th grader when I called "time" playing the mummy game with toilet paper for their Halloween party! They were impressed for four boys, but let me tell you, there were two girl teams who had ASSESSORIES and stuff!!




First they wanted to wrap Spencer, but figured out fast that he was too big and so they resorted to Carson! Fernie and Mitchell are on their team since, ya know, those jocks think they have to stick together!

I also had a fun game where I laminated a pumpkin for each team and they had to spit spitwads to fill in their eyes, nose, and mouth. Ewww. The girls KICKED both boys teams butts!! I also didn't get any pics of the yummy caramel apples Kristine brought in, but ate them ALL instead!





HATE to admit this, but there were 11 of us in the car for trick or treating!! Thanks, Shell!! It was SOOO cold that we only hit a few houses!




Getting ready to go! We have a fishing pole, two mimes, a gypsie, a fairy princes, and three cowboys! Plus, a CRAZY Luke to add to the picture!






Christmas 2011


Christmas Eve @ Grandma Ruth's!! Here is the end of the Nativity Story. Carson was a Wise Man, Colton was Joseph, Weston a sheep, and Brooklynn was an angle!



I know I am biased, but I think he is the cutest sheep in the herd this year!!





McKade and Weston practicing to be sheep in the Relief Society room!







Joseph and Mary (Colton and Kylee) preparing for their debut in the program.










The three most beautiful angles!! Brooklynn, Carlie, and Tyli




Football 2011


Ok, as promised, I am slowly getting you more football pictures. There are so many that I am taking the first 3 off my camera (sorry they are all from the same team) and that's it!! I'm thinking the call is a pass to #13 again! If not, he would have been closer to the line!! In fact, Wyatt is on his left so it was a sweep with Wyatt throwing to Carson!



Here he is just after Matthew gave him the handoff! Whew!




Arggg! This was taken JUST before he caught the game winning pass!!!!
