CONGRATULATIONS TYSON!!!

On May 2nd Tyson graduated with his Bachelors Degree from Grand Canyon University! Good Job babe!!! Going to school online isn't always easy, but all of his hard work finally paid off :)

Fun at Makutu's Island

One of Annie's favorite places to go is Makutu's Island in Tempe, Az. It is an indoor play place that is decorated like a Jungle with lots of slides and fun things to climb. The kids had a blast, but Mom and Dad got tired really fast :) Here are pictures from our last trip:

Pictures for our Christmas Card

We started a tradition without realizing it for our Christmas pictures every year. For Annie's first Christmas we put her in a giant stocking and took a picture of Tyson holding her on our banister. Last year we stuck the kids in Christmas presents, and this year they are dressed up as a ballerina and the nutcracker. I was bummed I didn't find a beard for Jensen to wear :) Not that he would have kept it on anyway, he kept taking his tall hat off. We took a lot of clicks with the camera and got some good ones. They have a problem in some of them of saying "Cheese" just a little too much! Merry Christmas Everyone!

Temple Lights

I love going to the Temple lights every year and it never ceases to amaze me how beautiful and peaceful it is walking around the temple grounds. The kids loved it this year because they were old enough to actually enjoy them. Annie loved pointing out all of the pretty colors, and Jensen thanks to his sister, kept saying "lights" and then "pit-e" (pretty). It was fun to get bundled up and have it feel like winter :)

Our New House!!!

We don't have a lot of pics of our new house, but here is one of our first meal. We ate picnic-style in the living room since our kitchen table hadn't gotten come yet. The kids love being in a new home that is three times the size of our last one! Annie especially loves giving people the tour. She points out everything really fast and runs from room to room. Her favorite thing to show people is her new bed. It is really just Jensen's crib turned into a toddler bed, but it is new to her! We are grateful to be in our new home and we are enjoying putting everything together and getting organized.

Halloween

The Kids had so much fun on Halloween! Their buckets got so full by the end of the night, but they would not drop them or let mommy or daddy help carry them. :)
