Football, knocked out teeth, and baby bumps

Last weekend Bryant was at the BYU vs (I think) UNLV in Provo. While he was there, he saw Nate Hammond and Brock during half time. He was so excited to see them and talked to Nate for a while. They started planning a trip for us to go to AZ when BYU plays Arizona State next fall. It would be really fun to go see them!

Last night Ashelynn had basketball camp and about a minute before we needed to leave she came up stairs from the toy room with her hand over her mouth. She wasn't crying so I didn't think anything was wrong. Then she took her hand away from her mouth and there was blood on it, her lip was swollen, and she started to cry. She had tried to jump from our bean bag and tripped and hit her mouth on a small toy cabinet and knocked out her front tooth! Luckily it was a lose baby tooth, but we didn't find it last night. It took her a little while to calm down, so we were way late for basketball. She is good now and we found the tooth in the toy room this morning stuck to the side of the toy cabinet.

I've had a couple pf you ask to see my baby bump so here it is. The pic is a little blurry and had to take it in Ashelynn's room because she has a full length mirror in there. I can still wear my normal pants but its a little more comfortable to use an elastic band around the button instead of doing them up all the way. I hope the picture is not too blurry! We find out on Nov 14th what it is.

My brother Stephen gave us a Tally Hall song called "Banana Man" a long time ago. My kids love it and love to dance to it. Here is a little clip of their dance!

Singing



I caught Bryson in the mood to sing. Here is his rendition of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.

Early Winter?

We had an early winter storm this weekend. It turned very cold Thursday night and Friday morning there was 6 inches of snow. Then the winds picked up and blew it away and continued to blow hard for the next 2 days accompanied by a blizzard on Saturday. Sunday it was still snowing, but stopped early in the day. Hopefully the snow will be gone by Wednesday so we can dig up our garden and cut down all of our frozen flowers! Why did winter have to come so early? I hope it was a one time thing and that the warmer weekend coming will be the normal again.


My sister and her family had to leave Houston at the end of September to evacuate for a hurricane. They stayed with my mom and dad for about 3 weeks. While they were in UT, my sister and her kids came up to visit us. It was really fun to have them visit. Angie was doing some yoga while she was here and Bryson and her oldest decided to join her. I love this picture. Its very cute!
