What we've been up to lately

I thought I would take this opportunity to brag about my daughter Breann. She decided to tryout for the highschool swim team and made it. I know this is a bad picture but she is getting ready to dive in on the farthest block. She has improved her time on the 50 freestyle by 20 seconds. I love going to the meets. It is challenging getting people to cover my shifts but I love watching this girl go! Yea Breann!

The other thing we have been heavily envolved in is a production our stake did called From Comorahs hill. Alyssa was a dancer. She is in the gold skirt on the right of the picture. She was the smallest dancer and did such a great job!

Breann has a long speaking part and she is the funniest actress. Again just a blast to watch!

I am so proud of these two girls they may be all we have at home but they keep us hopping!

Halloween costumes

The winners of the Halloween contest. Richard Simmons and his groupy ( Rob and Linda) The runners up. KISSES and HUGS!

Curt and I had a great time developing our costumes. We have a fun halloween party that we go to every year and we have yet to win the contest. This year Curt was a hug and I was a kiss.

We took 2nd. Any ideas for next year? I really want to win this. It looks like the funny ones are winning not the cute ones.

Fun times in the Rockies with Chris and Kristy

I thought I would update you all on a great weekend we had in the colorado Mountains with Chris and Kristy. We had such a blast. We did everything from finding great deals at the outlets to eating at some awesome restaurants to repelling hiking and bike riding! So much fun! Curt and I really needed the break and wow did we get a fun one. For any of you looking for a great place to go that is a great place. We didn't have time to do everything there is to do there but a lot that I want to do again. On our drive home today Alyssa was looking at the mountains picking out great places to repell. She is hooked....I hate to admit it but so was I. We are all hooked! Thanks again Kristy and Chris for a great time!

Colorado fun!

Our morning of Repelling with Chris and Kristy was great fun. Chris went down first to check everything out. After Kristy went down to hold the rope and give instruction from the bottom while Chris hiked back up for instruction at the top.
Alyssa was really excited to go and Chris was a great teacher! She loved it!

Our fearless leaders at the top of the cliff! Chris and Kristy
Curt followed Kristy down the mountain. She was at the bottom avoiding his rock slide
Breann listening closely to Chris's instructions. She did it!
Yes even I went down (twice)! I loved it!

Trip to Colorado With Chris and Kristy

The four of us had a great bike ride together! We didn't even have to call the paramedics to get us back to the condo. I was a bit worried after a hike and repelling but Chris was good to us and took us on an easy ride! Thanks Chris!
Breann loved being with her sister again!
Our hike took us up to the snow! Notice that Alyssa was having a hard time with the high altitude.
Repelling was awesome. Chris and Alyssa found this great little cliff. This is Curt making his way down.

The wedding is over

wow so the wedding is over and life is getting back to normal. However it just doesn't slow down. We are now in the middle of a production that the kids are in at church called From Cumorah's hill. They have multiple rehersals in a week. Breann made the swim team so she is busy swimming daily. Life just doesn't slow down does it. We are looking forward to going to Colorado to visit Kristy and Chris at his parents condo in Keystone. It is really beautiful there and we can hardly wait! So Julie tagged me and I am supposed to come up with 100 facts about myself. I will do that as soon as I get a chance.
Thanks to all who came to support amy and chace. I thought the wedding was great and it was soooo fun to see you all.
