| Both Treyson and Tagg were wrestling Varsity for the first match. |
 |
| New head coach - Kelly Wilson |
 |
| Brothers |
Treyson didn't have a match at 215, but click here for Tagg's match. Didn't turn out like he would have liked it, but every match is a learning, growing experience, sometimes more with the ones you lose !
 |
| Thatch has been taking drum lessons for a few years |
 |
| From this guy right here - Marv Reynolds |
 |
| They had a recital? concert? and even though we found out about it last minute, we were all able to go and support him and the other drummers at the Porterville Church. It was kind of fun because alot of them were in our ward, and we know them. Also, my friend from the courthouse, Penny Butler's son was a drummer also. It was good to see her there. |
 |
| He did such a great job ! |
 |
| He works hard at it - you can tell ! |
 |
| Click here for a fun video ! |
 |
| Oh what a fun time we had laughing over this picture. If you were able to zoom in, you would see a drop of Pepsi......dribbling down her chin (haha) |
 |
| The TWO Amigos |
 |
| Oh I love this girl :) She's growing up so so fast. |
 |
| Zac came over to get Thatcher, so he could sleep at home. He had school the next day, and needed to go to keep his grades up. |
 |
| Such the side eye !! Love you Bex :) |
 |
| We painted nails. This girlie is a PRO |
 |
| We had a list of fun things to do |
 |
| Next day, I let the kids skip school, and we put up the Christmas tree - no pics !? :( Then we took the stuffed elephant with the Santa Hat up to Tenzin's grave. |
 |
| Headed to Classic Fun Center in Roy |
 |
| Payson won BIG on the basketball machine, and he shared his winnings with his sisters, what a GREAT SWEET brother. |
 |
| Crazy !!! |
 |
| We had such a good time, before heading back to Morgan for grilled cheese and tomato soup, then on to Kaley's house for a sleepover before she took them to Ogden. Landon and Kacey had been in Key West Florida on a short vacation, and they got home early the next morning. |
 |
| Cam updated her profile pic on Facebook - Beautiful ! She's been able to talk with Josiah on Sundays, and has finally received his snail mail. She is busy busy with work and wedding plans. |
 |
| Lovin' the hot tub :) |
 |
| Bren's dad, Jeff Claussen died this past week, on November 14th. He had Parkinsons, and has been slowly declining for some time. This picture was taken in 2011 at Manda and Bren's wedding. Jeff leaves behind his wife Lee, and only son, Brendon. |
 |
| These girlies love to decorate Grandma's Christmas Tree. |
 |
| Leaf Lady |
 |
| Man, I thought I loved fall (because the mowing is done), but this leaf pickup is NOT FUN !! |
 |
| Zac is making progress on the Dog Room expansion. |
 |
| I helped CJ set up some things at Morgan Merc |
 |
| The boys will have their first wrestling match with North Summit next Tuesday. Treyson, Ezra, and Luke Woolsey were voted team captains. |
 |

 |
| Got a kick out of this ! |
 |
| Had to get a picture to go with it :) |
 |
| Marnie Christensen sent me this picture. She loves Thatcher. She's an aide at the middle school. |
 |
| Tuesday, November 7th I met with Sherilee Olson, and we went on a little retreat. Her family has a cabin up above Sundance Ski Resort. We went up over Heber City way, and stopped there first to turn on the gas heat. |
 |
| Then we went on down Provo Canyon to the Prover City Center Temple for a session. |
 |
| Afterwards we at lunch ate Cafe Rio, bought a few groceries, and a "MOUSE" for my laptop, then headed back to the cabin. This picture above is the next day when we went on a short hike. It had snowed the day and night before. |
 |
| Mostly we just holed up in the cabin, eating well, and working on our digital scrapbooks, and watching a few movies. It was such an enjoyable time. We came home on :Thursday the 10th. |
 |
| Here is a little bit about the cabin. It was in such a beautiful setting, with towering pine trees surrounding us, the ground carpeted with pine needles, sunlight filtering down through the trees. Not a million dollar cabin, and not a log cabin with a dirt floor. A "Just Right" cabin. Thank you Sherilee !! for inviting me. I had such a great time. |
 |
| Manda and Bren took Cash to Arizona Mills Mall, and ate at Rainforest Cafe. Cash was loving the jungle animals and everything, and got a cute Froggie cup to sip out of. |
 |
| Cash was watching a cartoon, where Danny the Tiger was potty training. Of course he wanted to try it out. Sure - why not ? |
 |
| MHS football was in the 3A Semi final game on Saturday |
 |
| It was held at Zions Bank Stadium in Herriman. Unfortunately we lost 35 to 21 :( The boys are ready for wrestling to begin ! |
 |
| We are in the process of selling lawnmowers, so we can purchase more for next year. |
 |
| Also getting rid of the grass hay in our barn since we don't have any animals anymore. |
 |
| Thatcher wrestled in the Will Pentz Memorial tournament on Saturday morning. He did really well. Click here to see the matches. |
 |
| We ate at the Garage Grill in Herriman before the game on Saturday. Cool atmosphere ! |
