Glee Concert

Megan's Solo @ the Glee Concert!

Skye took Lindsey with her the University of Utah gymnastics match.  She loved going and watching the gymnasts as well as the treats!  She has been asking lately if she can do gymnastics...not just tumbling.  She is quite intreated by it lately!

Sweethearts?

We proceeded to cut the cupcakes in half until we found Ambers name.  Kyle was quite popular that evening with his siblings and eventually had to take them and hide them from his younger brother.

We answered by getting a dozen donuts from Beyond Glazed and used the sticker on the front of the box to say "It would be beyond great to go to the dance with you!"

New Year's Eve

Kari invited us over for New Year's Eve.   We munched, played games, and those of us awake, brought in the new year!

Christmas Day

Tyson decided my water bottle wasn't really meant for me but rather for him.  He used it immediately and carried it around all day and throughout the week until I finally was able to hide it from him.

We had a nice day, but we all really missed being in California.  Bruce did his best to try to imitate Joyce's Christmas dinner, but it was lacking and it was just weird to be home with just our crew.  We were however blessed with many nice things and had fun playing with our toys, researching Hawaii, watching Shrek the Musical over and over, and being together! 

Santa

This year Santa brought a single gift for the whole family.  Inside nesting boxes, was a clue that led the family on a treasure hunt throughout the house.  There were riddles, puzzles to solve and gifts (pina colada drink mix, flip flops, snorkel gear, leis and a Mickey Mouse t-shirt for Tyse) along the way that hinted at the destination that Santa was sending us too.  The leis got Megan really excited (she said she was hopeful all along but afraid to say it out loud) and when the final puzzle was put together, we all learned that we would be spending spring break in Hawaii at the Hilton Waikoloa Village.  The kids followed up by looking up the resort photos on line.

Christmas Eve

We gathered at Mom and Dad's home for Christmas Eve.  We did a Christmas photo booth, ate dinner, did the traditional talent show, watched the nativity, and had the visit from Santa.  Tyson was more than happy to watch but wasn't about to get near Santa.
