Jessica's Christmas Piano Recital

Tuacahn Christmas

Every year we go to Tuacahn and see the lights, Santa and the live nativity. It is always very well done. Since this was about our 4th year it was pretty much the same drill. The Santa was great though. Taylor wasn't so sure.

Evan's Family Christmas

One of my favorite Christmas memories as a child is going to Aunt LaRee's house in Beaver and hanging out with cousins. We were invited to come this year and it was tons of fun! Cory and the kids even enjoyed it so if the Evan's family will have us, we will make it a tradition. The Evans are my dad's mom's family. My Dad's mom, Merlene, died in 1988. We have spent a lot of time with her sisters deer hunting, Lake Powell and Christmas. I have tons of with them.

Shhhhhh..........

Don't tell. Last night Cory and I went to the Military Ball for the ROTC program where he was President of the mess. Of course I couldn't wear the same dress. I had to find a new one so after tons of prayers on a Saturday morning I found this one that fit me perfect, was easily turned into being modest, and it was $6. Yep I found it at the DI. I was sooo blessed. Now all I have to do is get rid of those Evan's arms.










The material closeup. It also has a sheer thing that goes around the neck of the dress and shoulders and then hangs loose in the back.

Vetran's Day Parade in Washington

Michael's 1st time marching in band. I hated that when I was younger but then I had to wear those retarded feathered hats but at least I got to hide underneath them. Michael has a really cool band teacher. He is Mr. Heber White and he know how to play every instrument really well like all the band teachers did when I was in band, unlike Michael's Intermediate School band teacher. He was awful. I hope Michael continues in band but I think he is done after this year. It was fun while it lasted! I do have 1 question though. Why was band so popular then and so uncool now. Everyone was int the band in HS and MS when I was there. Yes I know it is a lot farther than I would like to think but still- such an awesome program with so many benefits. Yep I went to band camp- so fun. I ate it up.

I tried to upload another video where Michael was right in front of us but it must have been too big.

Jax's Sox and Loosing Teeth

We have missed our Coates' family friends. Christian esspecially. We found these miss-matched socks that someone left at our house. Christian and I decided that they were Jaxon's. He wears then to school (Kellee I owe you new ones) whenever they are clean. He says they bring him luck and whenever he wears them Jaxon is with him too. Here are some pics.

Also Christian had a loose tooth for about a week. He refused to pull it out and let us get it out. One night I just happened to talk him into it. I pulled so hard that the tooth went flying. I felt bad that I was yanking that hard but it came out and after about 20 minutes of frantically searching so the tooth fairy would come we found the tooth. These are pics of Christian's 1st lost tooth.
