My baby writes my name!

Last month my 'baby' wrote my name for the first time!! I couldn't believe it! He was so proud to show me and now he writes it whenever he can. This just can't be possible!!! Kyler is growing up and he's not my little baby anymore, though in a way he always will be!!

Kyler's best stuffed animal friend is "Chocolate Chip" and the other day he put out some breakfast for CC. I just laughed and had to take a photo of this!!

Cameron takes Kyler fishing...

Dallyn joins them in the fun too!

California Kids become Snow Kids!

Here is Scott, a true California boy through and through. Here is our snazzy Seqouia with its proud CA license plates. Isn't it grand?

What happened?? All of a sudden we change the plates to Utah ones and now look at our life...Scott is up to his knees in snow!! Oh no!!! Where did warm and sunny CA go?? (Having Utah plates is so weird!)

Scott and Dallyn attempting to shovel off our loooong driveway. I wonder how long before Scott will break down and get a snowblower?

Oh did I mention this is how he really likes to shovel snow??? Just kidding...he was SOO cold! It's 18 degrees right now and its the middle of the day!

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!

This is what our house looked like this morning! So beautiful--if you are inside!!

Our back patio, just look at that table!! Later in the day it had about 6 inches of snow on it!

Here are the kids all bundled up in their snow gear--we've spent a small fortune on snow pants, boots, gloves, hats, etc!!--they were so excited about the huge snowbanks today!

Scott shoveled the walks so they could leave for school...I would have frozen out there! Thanks Scott!

Time with Family

While my parents were in town we were able to go to Kaylie's Christmas Theater performance. She sang beautifully!!

After all the excitement of Thanksgiving and all the cooking, we decided to go out for dinner on Friday night! We went to my favorite new salad place called Zupas!!

Here's the rest of the group, except for Austin who was avoiding the camera I think...along with Abby.

And lastly....Scott continues to work on the secret project in the garage!! He's almost done...

Utah Symphony

Last weekend my friend and I took our girls to see the Utah Symphony. I love music!! We chose to take the girls to this particular show because it was entitled Bravo Broadway!! All the songs were from Broadway Musicals and there were three vocalists that were amazing.

My favorite songs were the ones from Phantom and Les Mis sung by the male vocalist. He was amazing!! It made me want to see those Broadway Shows again. Here are the girls waiting for the concert to begin.

Here's a Mother and Daughter shot...we had a really nice time. I did learn that not many 'children' frequent the symphony. It seems there were only a few kids in the whole concert hall!! Kaylie's favorite songs were 'The Wizard and I" and "For Good" from the musical Wicked (She has the CD memorized) and then 76 Trombones from Music Man, as well as "Part of Your World" from Little Mermaid.

Here is Scott working hard last week on our latest project. He's all bundled up because it was freezing outside!! Later we were able to close the garage door and we put the space heater in the garage so Scott could keep working!! He's so dedicated....more photos to come.

Drug Free Finally!!

Well as Scott and I were talking this week we realized that I am drug-free for the first time in 2 years!! I've always been on some sort of treatment..whether it be chemo, steroids, anti-seizure medication or Herceptin. It's such a great blessing to not have to take daily medications!! I'm so grateful for that at this Thanksgiving time. =) I'm not sure what the future holds but I sure am glad to be drug-free for now! Have a great Thanksgiving next week!!

Let it Snow!

Well its a good thing that I posted the photos of the fall trees the other day because Saturday this is what our trees look like!! The cold weather is now here!

My kids seem a lot more excited about the snow than I am. To me its just cold!!! But Cam is happy..see the smiley face!

It sure is pretty to look at though!!

Look at my cute little snow boy!! =) He's loving it..
