...and so much more!

we love visitors

We were lucky enough to have Tony's brother Regge spend a week with us up in Rexburg! We hadn't seen him in almost 1 1/2 years, so it was a great reunion. The kids loved the attention and played with him all week long.
Here's a few pictures of the fun we had:
-snowmobiling with the boys.



We did plenty of swimming... I think we went 4 days in a row :)


A huge food drive put on by Tony's work. 1000's of cans were collected.

After a great snowfall we had to go sledding :)


We had a great Pinnacle Christmas Party, complete with a catered dinner and guest performer Megan Joy (from American Idol)


The party didn't stop there... there was lots of dancing too!

And, we're celebrating 27 weeks and counting! It's flying by.

Sweet words

Last night Kensi was feeling sick. She had a fever and wasn't being herself.
We got ready for bed and as soon as we were about to lay down she threw up...all over.
Jackson rushed downstairs and grabbed my biggest bowl out of the kitchen to help.
Of course by the time he got back upstairs she was done....
He jumped on the bed, and bowed his head and said,

"Bless Kens no more throw up.
Bless Kens to not be sick.
Bless Kens to stop crying.
AMEN."

He was being such a sweet older brother.
These two are the greatest pals and love each other so much.
Last night was such a sweet moment for me as I watched their love for each other.

Baby #3 has a lot to look forward to with his two older siblings.

Magical

The ROCKETTES came to Utah on tour and my mom was lucky and got tickets!
They were amazing, and the scenery was fantastic. My favorites were the 12 Days of Christmas and The Soldiers number. These ladies have some real talent.



While girls love dance shoes and music... the boys love sports:

Tony was excited to attend his brothers last home football game.
They BARELY survived, and actually won with a lot of luck!

couldn't help getting in the powder. So glad they're old
enough now to really enjoy it!
Hope you're enjoying your Thanksgiving too.

Red Carpet Style!!
Pinnacle stepped it up and threw a heck of a party!
The ladies spent the day getting pampered with hair, makeup, shopping, nice lunch etc!
It's so fun to have great friends that we work with (and spend oodles of time with too!)

Tony's latest hobby

Tony has had a blast this past month hunting with his friends from work and brothers and dad. He held out and finally got his prize kill a couple weeks ago. Quite big, and I'm lucky enough that I get to see it mounted in my house...haha! (garage, or storage unit)
Lucky for me, hunting season is over!! Now dad is home for good.
