We're going back in time

Ok, so we are taking it back, all the way back to the beginning of September. We have had tons going on here! I have been so busy that the bits of time I do have that I could do a post, I am too tired to care!
So back in September we went to the cross country jamboree. It was so exciting because that is our first chance every year to go cheer for the Bombers (the mascot for the school Jay teaches and coaches at)! Of course since I am not all with it we showed up with one green pom-pom and one purple one (the school colors are green and yellow). That's okay, we had fun anyway! We love running around cheering for the team. My girls think it is an injustice in the world that there aren't cheerleaders at the cross country meets and at the freshman basketball games so they work extra hard at cheering!! So many people know who they are just because they draw so much attention to themselves!! And I must admit, I do encourage cheering for daddy and his team. So here are some pictures from the meet. They loved finding this climbing tree. They are so cautious that this is the highest they would climb in a tree!
Tyler loves getting pushed around by the girls! He absolutely loves the attention!!
This picture below is of a boy named Aaron. Back in the day when he was 4 years old I was his primary teacher. I taught his sisters piano and babysat the for the family quite a bit. It is funny to see him all grown up! After the race he told me that it caught him off guard to hear someone cheering his name while he was running past another team's tent! Ha ha, that was me! I also had to take a while expalining to the girls that even though I was cheering for the Bombers that it was okay for me to cheer for another runner, who isn't a Bomber!!! So we also went to a baby shower for our cousin Lisa. She is pregnant with her first baby and is having a little girl. She is due any time now. The girls had a blast helping with the shower. They got to hand things out to everyone and were so proud of being there with all the grown ups!

So, up next on the list of things to post is the Primary Talent Show. The girls had been so excited about planning something for the talent show. We had so many great ideas but other things kept coming up and we didn't plan anything until that day. We got out a CD and just started listening for a song to dance to. We found the bunny hop and they thought it would be cute to be bunnies. We were walking through the store and I was showing them the bunny hop. They were so impressed that I could come up with a dance for that song so fast!! I just let them think I really am that good!! They also decided they wanted to be bunnies for Halloween so we went all out with the ears and tails!

This is Michelle and Whitley with Auntie Rose and Grandma Donna. I forgot to get pictures with them and the rest of their cheerleaders, which were many! In reference to my prior post, this is a perfect example of my grateful heart. I love having so much family around. Whenever Tyler sees me trying to get a picture of one of the girls he always tries to get in the pictures. This is him lining up along the wall while I was trying to get pictures of the little bunnies!I am sure there is more to post from September but I can't remember right now. Coming soon: Kids race, BYU Ballroom dancers, and a new potential business venture for me...
