January 2009 Pictures!

After having a fun New Year day, we started a cold January. There were a couple of days when we were well into the negatives and had no choice but to stay inside. We did, however, have a few days of warmer than average temperatures. During some of those days, we were in the 60s and even close to 70s. Those were the days we took the kids to the park and played bubbles, etc. Other than that, we are all awaiting spring here in Denver when things get greener and we are able to enjoy the outdoors. Austin will be turning 3 next month and he is ready to go to pre-school. Kylie was also registered for school and she will be starting in August.

December 2008 Pictures!

Happy New Year! We had a busy December this year. Ariel started with a quick trip to Hawaii. We had our ward Christmas party early in December too and it was a lot of fun. The theme was Christmas in Hawaii. We started getting ready for Christmas fairly early too. Ariel and JoLynn had their 7th anniversary on the 22nd. The kids were very excited for Christmas to come this year. They ended up getting a lot of stuff. They have been very entertained playing with all their new toys. New Year day was fun too. We spent time with some friends and actually stayed until after midnight, which we had not done in a while. 2009 should be fun and interesting with Austin going to pre-school and Kylie to kindergarden!

Kids Sliding Down a Hill

The kids love playing in the snow now that we are starting to get some.

This is a fly-by at the BYU-Air Force game with 3 F-15.

November 2008 Pictures!

November was a very fun month. Winter has really settled in here in Denver. We got t go see BYU play here in Colorado a couple of times, both victories. One against CSU and the other against Air Force. Thanksgiving was a lot of fun too. The guys from church got together for football in the morning. In the evening we got together with three other families to celebrate. It was great. We also got the first 2 real snow storms towards the end of the month. The kids loved it. We went sliding in the snow and built a big snow man. We are looking forward to December, Christmas and New Year. We will have many new pictures soon.

October 2008 Pictures!

October was a busy month with quite a bit of travel. Ariel was in FL and NY during the first 2 weeks of the month. Then, JoLynn and the kids got to go back to Ridgecrest, CA to visit family. The kids had fun playing with many other kids, riding horses and going to bed late. During the last week of the month we had JoLynn's and Ariel's birthdays followed by Halloween. The kids enjoyed going door to door asking for stuff. Austin was shy initially, but quickly realized that strangers were giving him free stuff. Kylie was a princess and Austin a lady-bug, which he loves. November should be fun with snow surely coming, BYU football in town twice, Thanksgiving, etc.

Kids Riding Toy Train in CA
