The Cabin

The first day of Christmas break we packed up the car and headed to my parent's cabin. My Mom and Dad and brother Dallin all just arrived home from their missions, and it was such a fun reunion for the family to be together with them again. Uncle Gordy put together another amazing scavender hunt for the kids. Who really won the boys or the girls??
This kids spend hours outside playing!
We also read a Christmas story to help us get into the spirit of the season.

When it gets dark the games get even more fun! Football, kick the can, you name it!

Thanks for such a wonderful Christmas Break!!

Christmas Dinner

Before leaving town for the holidays we had a Christmas dinner here at the house. I had so much fun setting the table, and having some friends over.

Fall Soccer

This fall soccer season Georgia and Macie were on the same soccer team, and Jamie coached the team with Jeromy. It was so nice to have everyone playing at the same time, and they all really excelled!

Caitlin and Macie both haven't played in a few seasons, but you would have never known by the way they were out there chasing the ball!
The whole STARBURST soccer gang together.
Here are Georgia and Macie out there working the field together.

Thanksgiving Break

We headed south for the break to visit Jamie's family, and made some great memories. Bowling and Cicis pizza were the girls first requests. For the first half of the game Macie used the pink heavy ball because she didn't want to use the ugly green ball, but we eventually talked her into the lighter ball.

Notice Jamie's cast he had a little motorbiking accident the day before we left, but don't worry its much better now.
Mom and Lara took the girls to their pottery studio; the girls love it!
Thanksgiving was delicious! We had a huge turkey so we were able to eat leftovers for a couple of days Mmmm.

We put mom's work room to good use. We made 3 blankets, a bunch of burp cloths, and a diaper holder for little brother.


When it wasn't raining, we spent lots of time outside.


Thanks so much for a great visit!

Backyard Camping

Jamie, Macie and Georgia set up the tent in the backyard and decided to have a campout. They had so much fun. They played games in the tent and told stories, and slept until about 4:00am when they came inside and finish the night in their beds.
Ava loved playing in the tent in the morning. (He might just be the best Dad ever!)

Veterans Day Parade

I love the Veterans Day parade! This year Jamie was on a float with the Boy Scouts and Georgia was on a float with her Girl Scout troop. My walk over with Macie and Ava and all our stuff felt very long and hot, but was well worth the trip.
