Lose something?




Ethan lost his first tooth a few weeks ago. I didn't even know it was loose! I come to pick him up from daycare and he tells me his tooth fell out. I was ready to attack the kid who knocked my son's tooth out! It took a minute to get the full story on how he yanked it out on the van ride between school & daycare. Sadly, the first baby tooth was lost in the abyss of the 15 passenger van, but he still got his dollar from the tooth fairy!

Browned & Drowned




Abbie & Ethan really took to the water like little fishes this year, both of them are(as seen here) diving & doing flips & hand stands & frankly, scaring their mom to death! What a great summer though, we spent lots of time outside getting browned & drowned.

1st day of School




The apron strings just got a little shorter. Ethan started kindergarten this week & is happy as a clam to be at school. Abbie has always loved school & is well adjusted to life as a 2nd grader! Such an emotional dilemma: be happy that your kid doesn't cry when you send them off to school/daycare, or be sad that he/she doesn't even wave goodbye?!

Christmas Carol Train






Disney's "A Christmas Carol" train was in town on Tuesday at the Union Station in Ogden. Because it was a free event, there was about a 2 hour wait to get inside. We saw a cool 3-D preview at the end as well, can't wait to see the movie!

Okay, so Shae sent me this"photo tag" thing, so I'm passing it along, because it's a pretty cool idea, I think. So here is the photo from my 6th file/6th photo in "My Pictures" file, and I will attempt to send it on to 6 people: Amanda H., Holly, Elisa, Shanda, Audry & Amanda J.

This is Abbie & Ethan at Disneyland, September 2007. This was our first day there, & the first thing we saw in the park that day: Lightning McQueen & Mater, characters from Ethan's favorite movie at the time (which I think you can tell by the excitement on his face). It was also Abbie's 6th birthday!

I think we are all ready for another Disneyland trip!
