The MTC

Last Wednesday me and my family dropped my little brother off at the MTC. (Or as my mom calls it Mothers Torture Chamber.) It was really hard saying goodbye but I am so glad I went. I love my little brother so much, he is so funny and can light up any room. I will miss him a ton but I am so glad he is on his mission. Look out people in the Dominican Republic, Tyson is coming soon. Here are just a few "picks" from the MTC!


Trying to get Tayton to pose for a picture, as you can see he had more important things to take care of.


This is what happens when you have other people take pictures:)


My little brother and sister!


Tyson with Tanna and Azlyn, my cute little niece.


And finally we figured out the camera, one big happy family. Too bad we didn't get a picture with us coming out of the MTC, that would have been a good one. Everyone in the entire room was crying. I hope everyone is doing good and have a great day!

Farewell 2008!

I must say I am a little sad to see 2008 gone. It was a really great year for us. Here is our entire year summed up in one post.

We started out the new year in Laughlin, NV. It was by far the hottest summer of our lives but we had loads of fun swimming and getting to meet a lot of fun people that I truly miss.


At the beginning of the year my dad came to Laughlin and then me and Tayton went with my dad to San Diego! We had such a blast at the zoo and at Sea World. Tayton still talks about Shamu, it was a fun time, thanks again dad.


The best thing about this year was the birth of our little baby girl Tanna! She was born on 06/07/08. I don't know what we ever did without her. She is the sweetest thing in the world and we are so happy she came to our family this year.


We also took a quick trip to the Grand Canyon and had a blast, me and Levi had never been there before and we love to go to places we have never been. It was so beautiful!


Another exciting thing this year is we bought our first home and we moved to Eureka. We are really loving it here.


I hope everyone has a great New Year, and I hope 2009 is just as good or better than 2008 was. Happy New Year!

Late Christmas pictures!

Sorry I have been a bad with blogging lately. We have just been really busy. We had a fun trip to Utah for Christmas. We loved getting together with our families, and we had a lot of fun parties. One of my favorite memories about this Christmas was when Tayton opened up some socks I got him. He took one look at them, and threw them across the room and said "I don't want these!" and then he kicked the wrapping paper. We all died laughing it was so funny.

He loved his airplane with a hoop Santa brought him and he still hasn't stopped playing with it. Thanks to everyone, we had such a great Christmas! Here are just a few pictures!


We had a family party at the Peak, Tayton had so much fun. Here he is in the foam pit!


Tanna enjoying her time at the peak!



I think I like Christmas! I love to get soccer balls, thanks Grandma!

Levi's sister Kayla got Tanna some baby dolls. Tanna loved them! You know she really loves things when she tries to eat them.


Oh the suspence, what could it be?


It's my team Geo Trax, All Aboard!

We hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!
