Wrestling

Tylor decided to try wrestling this year for the first time.  It turns out that he is pretty good at it and even made the Varsity team at his school.  Too bad he really doesn't enjoy it much!  :)


Go Tylor!!  (I must admit that wrestling is a hard sport to watch as a mother...)

As you can tell, Taylor loved watching Tylor wrestle.  Taylor was a wrestler back in high school, so this was really fun for him.

Thanksgiving

We spent Thanksgiving this year with my brother, Ryon, and his family in Hayden, Idaho.  We always have so much fun together.
This was the spread for our Thanksgiving feast - so yummy!

As usual, Nichole and I were the Thanksgiving cooks.

Ryon was busy cleaning out an elk head, though (so he wasn't being lazy while we were cooking!).  The kids found observing this activity to be quite fascinating, and a little gross.  They got to have the new experience on holding an eyeball - which is not something every kid gets to do on Thanksgiving!  This was truely a "Schofield-type" of activity for Thanksgiving.  :)
(I should probably mention that the elk head was NOT part of our dinner.)


Taylie and he cousin, Janna, with the beautiful pie they made.  They are turning into quite the little cooks!

Dinner Time!

Crashing with the cousins every night - so fun!


Cantus Winter Concert

Tylor and Taylie both participate in the Cantus Youth Choir, a community choir that is AMAZING!  They had their winter concert in December and did such a great job.

Sicily and Julianne (and Julianne's mom) came to see the concert.  Such sweet aunts to come support these kids!

So proud of these two!

Rub A Dub Dub!

I just love these cute little buddies!  :)

The Joy of Dixie Cups

     I was telling everyone before Christmas that the best gift to give their kids would be a big pack of Dixie cups.  Our little boys have kept themselves busy for hours building all kinds of towers out of cups.  This has become one of Ray's favorite activities!
