Winter's close!

Despite what it appears, Jensen did have a real fun time building his first snowman. Since then it's melted and he's looking forward to the next snowfall, Justin is too but for a different reason (snowboarding is CLOSE!).

Putting up lights on our tiny house was harder than you'd think. We're excited for Christmas!

Family Pictures Taken by Kalli

These were actually taken in September, I just haven't gotten around to posting them until now. We're sure glad to have Kalli in the family...

Halloween

We were on a tight budget this year so we had to improvise on our halloween stuff. I made these tombstones out of particle board and we got some styrofoam skulls and put them on some dowels that I sharpened and spray painted. We also bought the gigantic spider, which was a nice touch. Then we grabbed a dead branch from Grandpa Smith's, painted it black, put some purple lights on it, and stuck it in the ground. Last, Grandpa Nickle gave us a spotlight and we put some green bulbs in it. The neighborhood kiddies seemed to like it.

Reliving the glory days

Me and some freind has-been-baseball players, now softball heros, scrimmaged the Kearns high school team at their new pro-style stadium. I just want everyone to see the swing that took a ball to magna. If coach would have batted me my senior year, we would have taken state. We smoked K-town, by the way.

Tooele Tournament

Justin had a tournament over the weekend (naturally) in good ol' Tooele. This one was different though, because there was no limit on homeruns. Justin has never played softball when worrying about when and when not to hit a bomb was not a factor. His team averaged about 15 homers a game and ended up taking 3rd place. In one game Justin hit 4 over the fence (305 ft fences) out of 5 at bats.

The tournament started at 9:00 am. and they stopped playing at 7:00 pm. Bre and the boys were good sports to go and support.

Chillin' in the shade at the fields

One eye

On Monday night, while we were playing at the park, a mosquito got Jensen near his eye. A little while later his eye brow looked a little swollen but we thought it had gone down a bit before he went to bed. The next morning his eye was swollen shut. He didn't act like it hurt or was even bothering him, he just said "I can't see out of my eye." So we gave him some benadryl and all that did was put him right to sleep.


His eye wasn't getting any better so we called his Dr. who told us to bring him in. They said everything was ok (other than the fact that he can only see out of one eye!), the mosquito just got him in a sensative spot. They gave us some medicine and a couple days later it was back to normal. As it was getting better Breanne said to Jensen "look your eye is getting better" and he responded excitedly "then I'll have two eyes again." We're all glad we have two eyes now!

This is when he started to have two eyes again!

Trip to Disneyland!

It's hard to tell, but we are sitting on the tea cup which was Jensen's favorite ride. His least favorite...Pirates of the Caribbean. After that ride, throughout the trip he would say "no more boats"

We took this one while Jensen was sleeping so he could see Elastigirl, from one of his favorite movies.

This one's just cute

Jensen loved running away from the waves at the beach. If there is ever an audition for a Baby Baywatch, I'm sending in this photo

Little Skater

Jensen has been fascinated with skateboards since before he started on the scooter (2 yrs old). We've always kind of avoided it. While we were in St George, he found one in the garage of the condo we were staying at and went nuts. He was pretty good, too! We're thinking of giving in and getting a board of his own now, he's already got the hair for it.
