True Blue??

Notice the blue hair? Paul (my brother in-law) is a Utes fan. Let's just say that I am extra glad BYU won this year. I don't look good as a red-head. Thanks for being such a good sport, Paul. For more detailed analysis of the game, talk to Brent.

Wait... where?

At one point on Sunday, after a looong afternoon with some kids who were driving us a little bit bonkers, I turned to Miranda and in a somewhat exasperated voice said:

"I don't know where these kids came from."

Emma, without missing a beat, jumped in (with her best "do-I-have-to-explain-everything?" voice) and answered my rhetorical question:

"From the North."

Here is my beautiful daughter from the North.

Snake and Snails and Puppy Dog Tails

Aiden's favorite thing in the world is balls. He get so excited and screams "bah, bah" when he sees one. So, he went CRAZY at the pumpkin patch (see prior posts) thinking they were all balls. He got so excited, he started to cry about it. It's a fun and useful distraction sometimes. I am amazed at how he is already all boy. I promise, I did not teach him to zoom his cars, but he does. I did not encourage throwing balls in the house, but he does. I didn't teach him to wrestle, bu he loves it. And, I'm finding that I really enjoy these differences.
