Growing out the hair!

So Garrett has been growing out his hair and let me tell you it has been a really hard thing for me. His hair is to the point that it doesn't want to slick back or spike up. He want to wear his hair just combed forward and I think it looks silly. But I asked him why he wanted to grow his hair out and he said it was because he wanted the things that dad has (side burns). I told him that would happen for a while but he wants to grow his hair out anyways. This top picture was taken in August and he probably had one more haircut in September and that's it.This was the end of October.
And this is the end of December.
And still going.

Way to go Utes!

How about those UTES. That game was so awesome. We are glad to see that our Utah Utes are the #1 college team in the United States. Way to go!

Sledding

So we took the kids sledding for the first time the other day. They had so much fun. We get to the hill and they were so excited they sat on their sleds and James pushed them down the hill. They faces were so funny. When they would go down the hill both of the kids would hold their breath on the way down. We only stayed for about 30 minutes because it was so cold outside and when we told Garrett and Katelyn that it was time to leave, Katelyn was so mad and started throwing a fit. She was just having to much fun she didn't want to leave.

I'm back!

Christmas time is so crazy for me. I make myself so busy every year that finding time to post anything is impossible. I was busy making caramel apples, caramel popcorn and pretzels. So now that Christmas is over hopefully I can get back into blogging, working on scrapbooks. I'm so far behind on my scrapbooking I'm not going to know where to start. Katelyn is 4 1/2 now and I'm only on the first year with her and Garrett is almost 7 (in a couple weeks) and I'm only to about 3 1/2 on him. So I need to get scrappin.

Our Family Pictures

Here are the newest pictures. I think they turned out pretty good. Garrett and Katelyn look so big. It is amazing how quick time is flying by.

Halloween

Here are the two silly kids on Halloween. Garrett was Obi One and Katelyn was a little Angel. They had so much fun going out to trick or treat. Katelyn was having a blast running up to the houses as fast as she could and saying treat or treat and getting a candy then saying Thank you and running to the next house. Garrett on the other hand was being shy. He would walk slowly up to the doors and wouldn't say trick or treat. We were only out for about 1 hour then came home and watched a movie and handed out candy.

The Pumpkin Patch

So we went to the pumpkin patch for something to do and here are a couple pictures of the kids. They love that everywhere we go I will usually take my camera and make them take a few pictures together. Just look at the expressions on their cute little faces. Can't you tell they love pictures!Now sitting on the pumpkins and looking pretty studly was fun.
And what about little Miss Cutie Pie.
Once he got a hold of his pumpkin, he carried it all the way to the car.
And Katelyn's was just the right size. She said it was the perfect pumpkin.
We had such a fun and fast time at the pumpkin patch this year.
