Matt's Football 2008

Matt was on the SF freshmen team this year. He did great!! It kept him busy. He started practicing in June. They practiced every day about 3 hour a day some days twice a day until the end of Oct. He played full back on offense, linebacker on defense and he was on the kick off team. Matt says football and motor cross are his favorite sports. (#22)

Caiden's football

I am so far behind on all of the things I've been wanting to blog about. I still have the boy's football pictures and Thanksgiving and Tanner's birthday party
and well much more...
Here's Caiden's football Pictures he was on the Bengals this year. He loved it and I loved watching him. There's something about my boys and playing rough,they love it (I wouldn't have it any other way ) and I would much rather they did it on the football field than in my house {hehe}. Caiden played awesome he had a great season. I was glad we had a really warm fall too. It made the games that much more enjoyable.

Happy BIrthday Tanner

I'm feeling just a little sad, my baby turned 4 today!
Where does the time go? Some days I wish I could freeze time.
It seems like just yesterday I was helping my mom get ready for Thanksgiving dinner when the contractions started (two weeks early) and I realized I was going to be Having my
Thanksgiving Dinner in the hospital.
It was so worth it.
I have so much to be Thankful for.
Tanner has been a blessing to our family. He has been the funniest little guy.
He is all boy which I love. he loves to play with his cars, he likes sports, he loves to wrestle with Sean, Matt & Caiden, and cuddle with me and Lindsey.

Here are 4 things I love about Tanner

1. He is a little sweetheart. He does this thing all the time where he climbs on our laps and snuggles his head into our shoulder, sometime he "meows" because he likes to pretend like he is a kitty

2. I think he's pretty darn cute and smart

3. He's fun to hang out with. He keeps me company everyday while the other kids are at school. I love "our" time together.

4. I love it when he cuddles with me.
Tanner I love you and hope you have a great day!

Jazz

I had one of the funnest nights ever... Caiden and I went up to meet all the Jazz players and get their autographs.
(Thanks Kevin for the passes) It was so fun and I thought all of the players were nice and friendly. I met Kyle Kover and I told him that my little nephew is named Korver after him and he seemed very pleased he smiled from ear to ear and said "Oh yeah!! Really?"... {giggle} We got to meet all of them except 3 (Okur, Price, and the new guy Koufos.) My favorites were D-Will, Korver and Boozer. They wouldn't allow pictures inside so I didn't get any pictures, but heres a picture of my autographed shirt.

After Caiden shook D-Will's hand he said he was
never going to wash his hand again...(hehe)
