*We had the rain storm of all rain storms (for Utah)! We were dumped upon-it was crazy cool!

*Skyler was asked to Bingham Ball (Dec. 9th) by his friend Kaylee! Super cute!
*Trey is on the Safety Patrol at school. Every few weeks he does the crossing guard responsibility at the school.

*Skyler ran in the region cross country race. We had fun supporting him and cheering him on. Its been a fun season!

*Trey is loving flag football this year. He is really good it is fun to watch him!
*I LOVE these pictures of Kayla and Olivia.... they are so cute!
*We hosted a region dance. Since Scott serves as the Stake YMs president, he was in charge and invited me to come help as well. We had fun serving food and watching our own kids.
