Random thoughts and Pics







Malissa sent up a couple of the cutest bows for Paige and I think she is adorable in red so I couldn't stop with just one picture.  Also, Trevor has been taking few pictures and caught Brandon sporting a bow himself one night and enjoying his nightly orange.  Its what he does every night before he goes to bed!  and the pictures of Trevor are of his match when he got his butt whooped!  and the muscle he pulled!  Poor little Trevor!  Paige also loves Grandma Bonner and I thought it was a cute picture but I think mom would disagree!  but she doesn't know how to blog and see this so she can't tell me No!

Update!

I can't get lots of things to download right now on the internet so you just get a quick little update without pictures and cute blog backgrounds until I can figure what the heck is going on.   The fam all had the day of on Monday for Martin Luther King Day so we woke up really early and headed down to Draper to go through the tour of the New Draper Temple.  It was beautiful.  My kids were interested to see more then just the two rooms that they got to see a couple of years ago so I didn't hear one complaint about waking up early and going to do  something religious.  Paige even stayed very quiet the whole time.  She just kept dropping her binky and thought it was funny.  Trevor of course had to go to the bathroom so we had to stay at the back of the tour group and he just might have a claim to fame as being the first to pee in the temple.  I thought we would get to see more of the inner working rooms of the temple but I am not complaining a bit.  
Then Tuesday night, Zack had a basketball game in Union and forgot his basketball shoes so he got to sit on the bench the whole time.  Lucky kid!  Pretty sure his coach is really bugged so I am letting them handle it and staying out of the whole thing.  Trevor had a wrestling match in Salem and went 2 for 4.  Not too bad!  He did have a kid that was all american last year and the kid put the banana split on poor old Trev!  They had to stop the match cause he screamed so loud!  Needless to say Trevor is walking with a little bit of a limp today.  and will be sore for  few days but he can't wait to learn that move and try on some other poor unknowing kid!

2009







Wow!  The Holidays really flew by and I enjoyed them so much this year!  I loved having all the kids home and Brandon got to spend most days at home with us as well this year.   We had Zack's Birthday,  Christmas, Trevor's Birthday and New Years!  I was also a little glad to have all the parties over with and could just spend some quiet time at home as well.  Zack is officially a licensed driver and has taken some of the running around duties off my hands!  I think I love that part!  He has had a few trouble with the little green ford but nothing too bad just yet!   He is back to every day basketball practices and games and also early BASEBALL  has began!  Can you believe that?  Baseball in January!  So he is a very busy kid.  He also was asked out on his first date to the School Dance Morp!  Its in the middle of January and he hates when I talk about it so sorry Zack!  Camille started Cross-country skiing up at Soldier Hollow and really seems to enjoy that.  She has a class 2 days a week and goes with Brandon and me a few other times. She has alot of her dad in her luckily and only has to coax her mom down a few hills and doesn't seem to have the fear I have.  She laughs at me alot but takes good care of me as well.   Trevor is still wrestling and has practice 4 nights a week and seems to really be enjoying it.  He has done pretty well at the tournaments so far.  he is about 5-5.  But always has a smile on his face when he is finished and can't wait to get there every day!  Good Job Coach! (That would be Landon and Shayne)  Paige is growing like crazy.  She mastered sitting up just in time for Christmas and has really enjoyed playing with her toys.  She loves music!!!!  She has two teeth and seems to be back to her pleasant self now that they have came through.  She is scooting all over the place but it is in reverse.  She moves the wrong way and then gets mad and goes back to rolling to get what she wants.  I am so grateful for my wonderful family and how much joy they bring to me.  I hope 2009 is a fantastic year for everyone!
