Birthday Dinner

After we got back from St George we had my brothers birthday dinner since he was in town. We had dinner at my moms and Kennady somehow got Chelseys heels on and was just walking around in them thinking she was pretty cute! She is all girl! Boston was into the balls he was playing with, he is all boy!

Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving we always go to St George with Ty's family. His moms family lives in California, and his grandparents and Ty's parents both have a house down there across the street from each other so everyone meets for Thanksgiving! We have been going since we got married, I think this was our 4th year going. It is always really fun. Dinner is always good and we love the food, thanks Grandma! Ty's grandpa has a karaoke machine, and this was a really fun thing this year. Ty and Parker loved it a little too much, look out American Idol! But we all sang and had a good time. Cheryl paid for her and her daughter in laws to all get facials at a salon down there, it was amazing! Thanks Cheryl! Also On friday we went early out to Roberts to get some cricket stuff for Cheryl and Grandma, it was really fun. On friday the boys go golfing, and the girls go to a place called Brushfire where you paint pottery. It is so much fun I look forward to it every year. This year I made a cereal bowl for Ty. I will post a picture when we get it. Here are some pics of the weekend!

Basketball Season




Basketball is now in full swing and we have played 4 games already ah. For those of you that don't know I coach the Bingham girls sophomore basketball team. It is so fun, but so busy 6 days a week! Jenny Wright (Clough) is coaching with me and she is so fun and good, I am glad to have her. But before tryouts Ty and I wanted to do something fun together before the craziest next four months came. So we decided to go on a hike. We knew there would be snow, but we didn't dress very well for it. We wore tennis shoes and not even very warm pants. So we did some research and went on this hike up the canyon and it was supposed to take us to a lake that was only 2 1/2 miles long. So we started at about 2 in the afternoon thinking this would not take us very long. So we got hiking and took a few pictures, and after about an hour and a half we kept thinking gee where is this lake! We kept thinking it was just around the next corner! And we were getting so tired, we felt so old and out of shape. But it was pretty steep and in snow (that is our excuse!)We finally ran into some hikers coming down and we asked how far away we were, little did we know we went on the wrong hike! And the lake on this trail was like another 5 miles up! We didn't bring a flashlight so we would have never made it! So we just decided to sit and eat our lunch in this meadow and went back. So not a very successful hike, but it was still fun to hang out together and just have fun!

The trail (that was all uphill and snowy)

"Where is the lake?"

This was the lake! I am just really far away zoomed in so the lake looks small! haha

Kennady's first attempt with a spoon

I finally tried to give Kennady a chance to eat with a spoon by herself. She did pretty good for the first few minutes, but then it just got worse and got all over! She was having such a good time! She is much better now, and sometimes she just gives up and uses her hands instead of a spoon.

Low family pictures





Finally I am going to post again, I promise I will be better at this, but here is Ty's family pictures that we took a while ago, but here they are! We also took some Christmas pictures, so I need all your addresses if you want a card! So leave a comment with your address! Thanks!
