SNOWDAY (3 in a row)

Its the words I love to hear at 5 a.m. on a school day "all Douglas County schools are closed". Yeah, sleeping in, hot chocolate, tubing , snowboarding, building forts, baking cookies, playing games, doing puzzles, hanging out with no where to go, no after school activities, time to just enjoy my kids. Thanks to Grandma Becky we even got a visit from the "Box Man" with a Halloween surprise. Hate the snow but it was worth the time spent together.

What a weekend!!!!!!

We had a lot of fun celebrating Taylor's birthday, all the grandparents and Meggie flew in for the weekend. Little did they know they landed in the North Pole, Denver broke a hundred year record that weekend. It all started on Thursday night for what Chad and I thought was going to be just a few friends coming over to hang out. We ended up with a house full of 21 teenagers who partied until after midnight. Bruce and Becky I'm sure were grateful they were staying in a hotel, even with a crowded house we had a blast. Friday night all the adults headed out to see Taylor's varsity game in hopes we would get to see him play. After freezing are butts off for 2 hrs. and our team getting their butts kicked we decided to head home. We found out right after we left they put Taylor in. Chad and I were so mad, we missed his first varsity game. The next day we all got to spend our morning watching Taylor play in is JV game in a freezing tundra. At least it was a good game and they won. After his game we headed out to Highlands Ranch to watch Whit's volleyball tournament. Unfortunately we only got to see her play a few minutes and they lost. Later that night we went to Qdoba for dinner and came home to sing happy birthday to Tay. Sunday was the Primary program, it was so cute. Before church Peyton insisted he was not going and he would not sing but he sang every song and all the kids did a great job saying their parts. Afterward Taylor was ordained a Priest and I was so mad I did not get any pictures. Chad is our ward clerk and the financial clerk so he is gone from six in the morning until three or four in the afternoon and by the time he got home I didn't even think of doing pictures(another moment gone and not captured). In the end we all had a great weekend and were sad to see every one go home.

Taylor's JV Football Game(Homecoming)

Here are some pictures of Taylor's game last Saturday. He had an amazing game with some great passes. The team they played was 3rd in the state and we beat them 13-12. It was such a fun game to watch, even though at times I was a little nervous. Chad was lucky enough to be doing chains, so he had a front row seat(hes the one wearing the black sweatshirt).
