Jingle Ball 2008

We went to the Jingle Ball concert in Sacramento. This was Tanner and Taylor's first concert. I took them along with 5 friends. The highlight of the night was David Archuleta's performance.

Digging our way out..........

Where did the last 6 weeks go? I can't believe it is already December 15. I am not even remotely ready for Christmas, I still am trying to catch up on November. In one quick breath, this is what we have been up to: soccer, football, upstage, Thanksgiving, wrestling, play auditions, flag football, some more wrestling, more upstage, and a bit more soccer. I have many photos and some video that I will share over the next few days.

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving in Utah and enjoyed our time we had to spend with Megan and Brandon, Tate and Coy. They came up from Dallas and we tried to make the most of the time we had. Our trip through Nevada was quite eventful and after a long day on the side of the road, a night in Reno, and a rental car for the week we finally made it to Utah. We picked up the Suburban on the way back with a new fuel pump. Our life is never dull that much is for sure. We ran non-stop while we were there enjoying movies, indoor surfing, pizza, go-karts, football in the bounce houses, and hanging out with cousins and family. It is always sad to leave but we were glad to get home. We will spend Christmas at home in California and we are looking forward to that.

The kids have been very busy. We finished up Football and Flag Football and went straight into wrestling for both Tanner and Riley. Riley is wrestling for the middle school that he will attend next year and Tanner is wrestling on the Varsity team for Whitney High. Taylor auditioned for the winter musical "Beauty and the Beast" at Whitney High and was cast as Lumiere (the candlestick). Quite an accomplishment for a freshman. There are only 2 freshmen in the cast and to have a lead role is exciting. It will debut the end of February for a couple of weeks.

Check back for photos and video of the last month. I am going to try to be more diligent with the blog. Leave us a comment so that we know you have visited.

Merry Christmas!
