REAL SALT LAKE WINS!!

WOW!  What a game!  Can't make it much more dramatic than that.  Finally Utah has a championship team!

Hail to the Chief!

Dani is now the 5th grade president.  She is so excited.  They have a meeting on Tuesday and they are supposed to bring ideas (totally planned out), and share them.  Her only problem is that she has so many.  I told her she could bring more than two if she wanted.

Help I've FALLen, should I get up?

Why get up?

Manny Votes for Dani

Dani is running for 5th grade class officer.  Her slogan, thanks to Uncle Eric, is Manny votes for Dani.  She had fun playing on that thought.  And used Ice age as the theme.  Sid's word bubble says, "That's definitely a good idea".  Diego's says "Wow, for once Sid has a good idea!"  And scrat's thought bubble is about nuts.

This is her other idea, using a profile perspective.

Happy Halloween!

Vampires, Pirates, & Skeletons...Oh My!

Happy B-day to Mo and Dani!

The entire crew!Skeletons in your closet?

Happy Birthday Dani!

11 years ago my life changed forever!  I love this little person, although, we often refer to her as Ginormica lately.  We love you Dani!

Arizona

So we spent the last week of October in Arizona.  It was so nice.  We totally love the Phoenix Zoo.

They actually have Peter Piper Pizza there still. It was a fun reward for a rather boring day for the girls.

I love how much Dani loves animals.  Notice how close and snuggly she gets.

They fell asleep this way.

Swimming was nice.

I love Nica's face here.  The goats had been playing king of the bench. So it made her a bit nervous.

Thanks Oma, for the fun travel stuff!

What were you doing October 26th?

I have heard that you were freezing. Arizona is simply lovely this time of year. Here's what we were doing!

Kids Rock!

These videos are just too strange not to share! Sorry about the quality. Dani wasn't concerned with lighting at the moment. The first one is like a face cam view of her doing a flip onto the bean bag.

Hmmm....Interesting. Very, Very, Interesting

What happens when kids have free reign on the camera? It's a combination of beautiful and strange. I guess then, you get strangeful? Or maybe beautistrange.

The Girls take pride in doing their hair. Time for hair cutts???

Hat Day !

So Red Ribbon week brings a new thing each day, Today happens to be Hat day, The girls choices cracked me up. I love my girls!

Little Baby Lyla !!

I can't believe my little sister is a MOM. Lyla is so cute! I can still hear her singing, When I grow up, I want to be a Mommy, and have a family, one little, two little, three little, puppies of my own!! Come to find out after talking with Tyler, Lyla's name was first heard when their friend called out to their dog. I guess Lindsay was a little prophetic back then. Congrats Tyler and Lindsay! We all adore Lyla!

(DISCLAIMER) WITH MY MEMORY OF THE PAST A LITTLE CLOUDY, IT COULD HAVE BEEN ALEECE OR ASHLEY THAT WAS SINGING IT. AFTER TALKING WITH MY MOM, SHE SAID WE WOULD JUST TEASE THEM ABOUT SINGING IT. I STILL THINK LINDSAY DID!!

Britti's latest

So Britti had another crazy dream. When they're really unusual she tells me first thing in the morning. It is funny, she really can't do anything else till after she's told me it all.

This morning as we were closing the door to a sleeping sister and heading down for breakfast she informed me of her dream and went on to describe it. Here it is.

For some reason her cousin Josh is half penguin. She and Josh were left out of a family hike right at the trail head because they were too small (I have no idea where Lauryn and Nica were). Josh decided he wanted to go so Britti let him walk to the trail and he took off. She took the nearest tunnel that would slide her to where Oma was. When she got to Oma Britti said "What are you doing here just relaxing?" Oma smiled then asked Britti what she needed. Britti told her about josh so Oma picked up the nearest turtle shell (a bunch had come out of the tunnel Britti came through), put the shell to her ear and listened. Then she told Britti Josh was dead, she found out by listening to the turtle shell. He got swallowed up in the water full of monsters. Then she woke up and the house was creepy quiet and she got teary eyed thinking maybe it was really one of us that died. Then I walked in and she found out all was well.

I don't really get the penguin part but whatever, it's not like the rest of it made sense.
