Things we have been up too.....................................



We spent all of fall raking leaves from our huge tree in our front yard. I think I raked a total of 50 bags...........no lie! The kids loved it!

Bryton had her first dance recital. She did very well! She had so much fun performing and was so glad her grandparents were there to watch her. They performed at the Covey center for Arts in Provo.

The lights at Temple Square with Brennon's family. It was so cold but a very nice night.



I guess it is about time I update this blog of mine. It has been since Halloween and now it is almost Christmas. We are getting excited for Christmas and I am actually done shopping and have everything wrapped! Yay! I am glad that I can just relax this week and just enjoy my kids being home and spend time with family and friends.
Hope you all have a Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!

HALLOWEEN

Macy was a strawberry, Bryton was Strawberry Shortcake, Zach was a cyclist that was in a wreck and the hot pilot in the back is my hubby.



We were out trick-or-treating until 10. The kids and I ran from house to house while dad stayed home, he was worn out at 8:00. The kids had fun with their friends and they made quite the haul.


Macy's best friend.... So Cute!!

Fall

I absolutely love fall in the Wasatch mountains. There is nothing more beautiful than it!! We went up to Sundance a few weeks ago to see the leaves. It was so pretty, especially closer to Cascade Springs, the trees were on fire. I took a few pics at Sundance, I thought they were pretty cute.

Marathon

ST GEORGE MARATHON 2009

It was a great day!! Brennon did awesome coming in 3 hours and 26 minutes.

He ran with our friend Josh almost the whole race, it was so fun to see them come in together.

I ran Joni in the last 2.5 miles. It was so emotional to be with her on the last part of the race. She did amazing coming in just under 4:15. She sprinted in finishing so strong, it was great!!

I love being at the marathon, it is so inspiring!!

GO DADDY!

Kokepelli Tri 2009

Brennon and our sister-in-law, Becky participated this past weekend in the Kokepelli Tri. They both did awesome!!! It was the first time there wasn't any wind at this tri (for awhile) so, they actually were able to swim. It was a beautiful morning!!!

Labor Day

We went to St. George to spend Labor Day. It was so great to be back in God's Country again. The weather was perfect and beautiful! We were able to get a hike in at snow canyon with our awesome friends, Joni and Rich. Then we all went and hung out at the pool for some good R&R!

cute little Joni


Awesome hikers!


Having breakfast at the condo.

Macy is learning to eat all by herself. I love these pics. of her! She does this at almost every meal. I spend 20 minutes just cleaning her off. She will not let us feed her! She is getting old, It is so fun but so sad that my baby is growing up so fast!!!

I can't believe we have been gone from St George now for 3 months. The kids are back in school and seem to really like their new school. They both have great teachers and have made a few new friends. Are ward is really different, it is pretty spread out and there are a ton of "newly- wed BYU students." It's kind of funny... I think more than half of our ward is barely married. They all look so happy (poor suckers) Just Kidding, LOl!!!!
It's kind of fun living back in the heart of the city. There is a lot to do just in walking distance and it's really pretty this time of year. The trees are huge and line the streets, It's a little different then the desert.
We miss our friends so very much and our house but, things are good. We are so blessed to still have work and a paycheck coming in. I actually don't mind Provo to much. Hey, who knows maybe I will become a cougar fan. My husband is still praying for me---

Brennon is still doing the Tri's and is busy training for the marathon and the Iron man. It is fun for him and motivates me to keep in shape. I am still having back pain, but I still run a little everyday. I can't let Brennon get smaller than me-
The kids keep me on my toes, especially Macy. She is so busy.........so fun, but so busy!
Zach and Bryton are just getting back in the groove of school and other activities, Bryton starts dance this week and Zach is still trying to figure out what he wants to do.
Life is good and we are being blessed everyday!!!
Hope your all doing well!!!!

NEWPORT TRIP 2009

We went to Newport Beach on our annual Miller family vacation. We had tons of fun; spent time on a few different beaches, ate lots of good food and went to Knotts Berry Farm. The kids had so much fun playing with their cousins and just hanging out on the beach all day.
