Brinley had surgery!

On Tuesday Brinley had surgery at Primary Children's Hospital to have her tonsils and adnoids out. She has always snored very loudly and has had strep quite a few times this year. On Tuesday morning we got there at 8:00 am and we were back home all done by noon. That hospital is so great! I am so glad there is a hospital like that so close to us. They are so great with the kids there. While there we saw a few sad cases that just make your heart break, and make you so grateful for such healthy children. Brinley was such a brave girl and was so amazing she didn't cry once. When we got home and gave her the lortab for the pain, and about 20 minutes later she was buzzing all around the house. It hyped her up!! It was quite hilarious. She was running up and down the stairs, moving furniture, jumping, doing somersalts, etc. She is not normally such high energy so it was funny to see her that way. I am so grateful that everything went so well. She is such a little angel and I feel so blessed to have her as my daughter.

GO UTES!!!

Today we took Jackson, Ashlyn, & Brinley and went to the Utah - Colorado State game. Utes won 49 to 16. Dave's cousin Lauren babysat Payton for us. We had a great time and the weather was beautiful! We have season tickets, but we only have 2 so we have to usually decide who gets to go. So it was fun for us all to be able to go. The seats are pretty good too 21st row near the endzone. Thanks to Shannon and Brandon for letting us use your tickets!!

3 Months Old!

Jackson & Payton

Jackson is so protective and loving to his sisters.

I am so glad my girls have a big brother like I did.

We had a very fun night last Monday picking out pumpkins.

Thanks for inviting us Uncle Mark, Aunt Amy, Ryker and Brecken.

Cast is Off & Flag Football

Ashlyn got her cast off this week. The doctor said it had healed great and she will not have to have surgery YEAH!!!! She was not real happy in this photo because it felt so weird. Her arm had been in that cast in a 90 degree angle for 4 weeks so it was a little bit of an adjustment for her. She still can't straighten it all the way. When they took the cast off we found out she had a nickle that had fallen in her cast at some point - it was pretty funny.

Jackson is playing flag football this year. It has been fun to watch. His favorite position to play is quarterback. Most of the kids on his team are kids from his baseball team so he has had a lot of fun seeing his buddies again. Lets hope the weather stays pleasant for a couple more weeks!!

2 months old

It is amazing how fast kids make the time go by. The more you have the faster the time goes too I think. I can't believe that Payton is 2 months old today. She has brought so much love, fun, excitement, joy, and patience to our family. I love seeing how each of the kids love her and she loves them too. She is starting to smile which is so much fun. I don't know what we did without her!!! Our life has been so crazy since she was born, but we have enjoyed every minute of it. Well we could have done without a few of the doctors visits!!!
