February already over...

I can't believe that February is over already... Time is going so fast.

Amelia and Asher are getting so big.

I started the month going on a sisters trip with my aunts and cousins. What a blast!

So much fun!!!

My sister Kait turned 18! 18!!! wow really?!?! I was 18 like yesterday.

THE OLYMPICS!!!! We have loved watching the olympics.

Brandon started a job at Fairchild. :) YAY!

Amelia went poop in the toilet for the first time! That is a big moment.

Also Mills got a new bed... No more crib...

Quite a month...

The Lights at Temple Square

We love going to see the Temple Square lights every year. However,

of course, it was freezing the one day we decided to go.

Amelia was interested more in the snow than the lights.

She always had a handful to throw or eat.

Mom and Amelia.

We have a graduate amongst us...

Brandon graduated from Utah State University December 11th 2009 as a Master of Science in Human Resources.

We are so proud of him... What an accomplishment!

It will be nice that he doesn't have to drive to Logan every day! :)

Thanksgiving in Hinckley

We spent Thanksgiving at Brandon's grandparents' house in Hinckley, UT (pop. 698). We had a great time with family, football, frisbee, exploring, scrabble, and of course amazing food. We love going down to Hinckley, it's one of the best places to visit. Small town charm can't be beat. Here are a few pics of our fun Thanksgiving weekend.

Amelia, Danni, and Ali

Amelia loved hanging out with her cousins for the weekend.

She was running around, and exploring non-stop.

Our family.

Kind of a funny picture, but the best one out of the few we took.

Ali and Amelia getting super messy in the leaves.

A little bit scary, but Ryan and Brandon loved throwing

Amelia back and forth and she kept asking for more...

Amelia looking Hip, like a 77Kids (American Eagle for kids) ad...

Brandon went Christmas tree hunting

all the next day, and came home with this cute little tree.

Then a quick ride on the 4 wheeler.
It was one of the best Thanksgivings ever!

Our sweet baby boy
