October, November, December 2013

The last three months of the year are always the most busy.  Which is why I have not blogged since September.  And this post will be GINORMOUS!!  But what a three months it has been!

Some major events which I will showcase here:

We went to Disneyland October 21-26 and LOVED it! 
Halloween
We took over ownership of the Martial Arts studio
Thanksgiving
Christmas
A lot of fun activities in between! 

I won't be writing many captions as the pictures should speak for themselves and it would take me another 3 months to write it all down!!



Karate Camp


Pinewood Derby
Fall Hikes











HALLOWEEN (Dan and Dee nerdy)












 Disneyland!! (I am only putting a few pics as I made a whole photo book of the trip)





























 First snowfall at the cabin in October

And at home :)


 Playing at the Rec Center
 Heber Valley Martial Arts Dojo

 Swimming at the Kamas Pool
 Early December snow... Snow throne (That is Brennan) So cute.
 Kaeleb's Christmas piano recital
 The Nutcracker Dec 7th- Kris, Barbi, Saige, and Gracie performed

 and yes, that IS Kris playing Mother Ginger. 



 Holiday Decor
 Kwint got new cross country skiis for his birthday
 Gingerbread Cookies


 Hoar Frost- love it!
 Heber Valley Elementary Christmas program: Kaeleb is to the right of the piano with two tall kids in front of him.  You can just see his face poking out! He also performed a rap song with 3 other kids, not pictured.
 Brennan is on the top row 5th to the left of the music teacher.  He is on the second step down so it masks the fact that he is the tallest kid in the whole kindergarten.
 That is me.  I know, scary hat.  I felt like Animal from the Muppets. :)
 and Kwint.  This was a date!

 And the scary hat is back for tubing at Soldier Hollow... SOOO FUN!
