Dance performance

The girls have been taking dance from a studio up here near our home. It has been very convenient not having to travel down the mountain. They really loved their instructor, but decided they will be venturing out and doing different activities come January. Jenna will be taking Piano......YEAH! and Madee.....well, we aren't sure just yet. Here are a few pictures from a performance at the Jubilee of Trees.

Madee, my little dancing queen

Jenna enjoyed a Hip-Hop class. It was very interesting. Not my choice of Hip-Hop.....well I guess we do live out in the sticks now don't we!!

Our hair queen

I went into my room today and found Madee sitting in Tuckers chair reading scriptures. Well, playing and pretending to read scriptures to a class. I asked her who did her hair and she replied....."uh..I did." I told her to turn around and this is what her creation was! I about died. WOW!! She is pretty good for a 5 yr old. I couldn't believe that she even got the little clips all cute! I guess she my grow up doing hair.

My first Ring Pop candy

Tuckers first experience with a ring pop. I think you can tell he totally enjoyed it.

Soccer Saturdays!

Jenna is on the U8 team this yr with all the same girls & coach that she has had for the last 3 yrs. She is such a good little player. Jenna isn't a goal maker, but she has had over 15 assists with the goals. She just likes to be the SMART player, that is what her coach calls her. She has come very far this yr.

Madee, on the other hand, is a complete ball hog!! This is a picture of a ball she booted down field then chased after it and scored. This game she did very well. 5 out of 6 goals. She is so funny. We call her Mad Madee. She runs with the meanest look on her face.

This is my soccer buddy!! Ain't he just the cutest!!

my blessings

Each morning I have the joy of waking up to 3 of the most wonderful blessing my Heavenly Father could give me. The giggles I hear, the cries & fears I listen to, the running around the house; all bring joy to me. I am not the best mom in the world, I have many faults as do many of us, but I am trying. That is all I can do.

This was one morning that Jenna decided to wake up early and get Tucker in the bath. He LOVES his bath time and Jenna is such a huge helper. Madee just loves to play!

Halloween Day! BOO!

Well we started Halloween day off at Madee's class party. I went to help them paint pumpkins, frost cookies, and do other games. Then off to Jenna's class I went, but this time, Brandon came to help too. With Tucker in tow, we helped with the games and Brandon & Mr. Scovil awarded some of the kids with awards and prizes for costumes. Jenna won COOLEST costume (& Brandon didn't give that one out LOL) Off we went to the school parade. The kids all walk around the round-about out in front of the school so all the parents can come and see the kids in costume. All in all, it was fun, but a very crazy day. We went on Tracy's trailer again this yr and there was over 25 kids and parents too!! Tucker loved the door-to-door thing! He would take the candy out of his hat and turn back around to go back to the same door for more! Madee was done about 20 min. into it! Jenna was up with the big kids this year. Apparently, we are too slow with Tucker now!! It was a fun night~

DANCE, DANCE, DANCE!!

Jenna had about 24 friends over for a Halloween Dance party. They were all so dang cute. We had pizza, tons of candy and did some fun games. We had a BLAST!! I hope that this will continue on and become one of our traditions! It really was THAT fun!!
