Tayson's First Tumbling Competition

 They have a spooky spectacular in October up in Brigham City and this year Tayson decided he wanted to try it.  This is him waiting for his turn.  It was hard to get a good shot because there were so many people there and he is moving.

This is Tayson at the end of the competition.  He received a metal and was so excited about that.  He has more coming up in the next year.  He is quite the little tumbler!!

Treehouse and Black Island Farms

 Tayson got to go on a train ride with Gramby and Poppie and Brinlee over fall break so I took Ember to the Treehouse.  She only lasts about an hour, but she has fun during that hour.  Here she is in the presidential area.

 She loved the fire truck and the train.  I couldn't get her to look at me while she was on the train, so I just put up the one where she is in the firetruck.

 Her little preschool took a field trip to Black Island Farms in Syracuse.  She is waiting for the tractor to start pulling us on the tractor ride to get a pumpkin. 

 She found her pumpkin!!

 They have this area with slides and train rides and all sorts of fun things for the kids to do.  Ember thought the train ride was the funnest.

This is outside of the farm.  I wanted to get the whole wagon in, but she wouldn't cooperate with me very well.

Ember is 4!!

 This little girl turned four on October 15th.  She was being a little stinker and wouldn't smile for me.  She wanted lipstick for her birthday and she got some!!

 I took her and Tayson to the Fun Center on her birthday and they had so much fun.  And yes she is wearing snow boots.  At least she has shoes on..

 Here they are playing on all the bouncy things.

 This one is called Mt. Everest and Ember climbed all the way up to the top with Tay.

 I love that she is sticking her head out.

 Aunt Judy bought her this adorable skirt and Minnie shirt.  We had to have a picture.

 She wanted a princess cake, but instead agreed upon pick cupcakes for her birthday.  I made the cupcakes into a number four.  It's hard to tell because it is sideways!!

Here she is at the end of the day.  She turned four but is going on 16!!  She loves dressing up and being pretty, she refuses to wear levis and still loves skirts.  She loves to pester her older brother and she loves to wear her princess high heels.  She goes to preschool two days of the week and loves her teachers!!  Her favorite food is apple juice!!  She also likes apples, crackers, pickles and anything sweet!!  I love her to pieces!!

Goofy Pictures

 Ember and Tayson got into the winter clothes before it even got cold.  So we had to take some pictures of them.

Here are their best gangsta moves!!

General Conference

 This year for General Conference we were home by ourselves.  We usually go up to Gramby and Poppie's house to watch and have doughnuts and pizza, but they went to visit Brad and Kenzie in Colorado.  So the downstairs was a mess, but it kept them down there and they were actually listening.

 Ember is concentrating on building a tower.

Brice and Tayson, mostly Brice built a Temple out of Lego's while we watched conference.  I thought it was quite good and Tayson still has it sitting on his desk.

Family Pictures 2013

 We recently had some family pictures taken by Kellie.  She was awesome to come and take our pictures and I think they turned out awesome.  By this point Ember was not really wanting to take anymore pictures, so we ended up with this.  It works for us!!

This is my favorite picture!!  I have lots to blog about, but was excited to get these pictures and so I had to share some of them.

Back to School

 I know I am a little late, but better that than never!!  Tayson doesn't like it when I go to school and take pictures so I take them before we leave.  He had a hard time looking at me.  His teacher's name is Ms. Buval and I can't believe it but he is in 3rd grade.

 This is Tayson and his new backpack before going to school.  I love his cheesy grin.

 Ember started a preschool this year.  She didn't start until after Labor Day.  Likewise I just took pictures before we went to preschool.  Her teacher's are Miss Jen and Miss Amie and she loves going.  She goes on Tuesday's and Thursday's for two hours.  It has been good for her and she is learning a lot.

Here is a picture with the actual outfit she wore to school.  The shorts in the above picture drove her crazy so we had to change!!
