Truly Blue

I have to say that I married a devout, blue as they come... Cougar. The longer I'm married to my cute husband, the more I realize this. Bryan was raised in the tradition of Cougar sports. From the time he could talk and walk he's been singing, "Rise and Shout the Cougars are out." Last night he went to the big game up North... I begged and begged him not to go, because I was nervous it would just be hard on him. He came home a little beat up, but still very proud to be a Cougar. By 4 a.m. I talked him into taking a sleeping pill as he was so wrapped up in the game still, he couldn't sleep. Win or lose, my Bryan will always be a devout Cougar Fan and I can see our kids will also. Congrats to the team up North... here's to next year!

Yummy

Baya has started to eat solids and is loving it! She just sits there and hollers at me when we are in the kitchen until I give her some food. She loves to drink out of a cup and get all wet from the water. I just have to laugh... she is turning into such a chunk. I've never had a kid w/ rolls on her legs... and look at those cheeks. She is such a cutie!
Blakely invited us to come and eat Thanksgiving lunch with her at Oakdale. It was a lot of fun. She was so excited to be able to eat in the cafeteria, as that really will start next year. She made a cute little pilgrim! She loves school and is such a cute and excited student.

Leaves to play in

We have plenty of leaves to play in. I tried to get the girls to pose for me before school one morning, but Blakely refused. Later, when we were raking, they enjoyed jumping and playing in them. I couldn't believe it, I put Baya down to get a pic, and before I knew it, they had thrown a huge handful on her and she was buried completely... ahhh

Abby dancing w/ the boys

Abby loves to dance and whenever she can get a boy over to play w/ her... he becomes her prince. I sometimes peek in, and I just happened to catch this one on film. Poor Jake was so scared he didn't know what to do. That's my girl!!!

Halloween Day

This year it seemed like the party w/ Halloween never ended. The day before Halloween, both Blakely and Abby had their school parties. Abby even went trick-or-treating w/ her preschool class. We stopped off at Rasmussen farms to see everyone and get our last fix on pumpkins. Then, we headed down to Lehi for my mom's trunk or treat... that was a good way to get lots--fast. Then home to enjoy the real trick or treating w/ aunts and neighbor kids.
