Brett's 4 Stitches :(

Brett saw Anamarie's Hawaiian necklace; and had to have it. As he reached up to grab it, Anamarie pulled it away, getting the hook caught on his finger and slicing a very deep gash into his right middle finger. Luckily, this happened in the presence of Brady and I, so we were able to rush him to the Highland Insta Care immediately. Once there, we checked him in, and within a few minutes we saw a nurse. She did confirm that Brett needed stitches, so she put numbing ointment on his gash, and we waited 15 minutes before we could see the Doctor. While waiting, Brett found a great toy to play with; a train set. He loved it, and it passed the time while waiting. After going back to the Doctor, he injected his gash with more numbing solution, draped his hand and carefully began sewing his little finger. It only took him about 15 minutes from start to finish. Brett was so brave that he only cried during the injection, and he watched with great intrigue the rest of the time, while his little finger was being sewn. Poor widdle guy!

Kolby's 29th











We had a family party for Kolby @ our home. He turned 29 on October 7th. He received great presents from the family; like: a sketch of Kim from Shane, crocheted wash cloths from Blair, gift certificates to Outback & Chili's. However, the best present was a portrait of Kolby drawn by Anamarie :)

Caught in the rain

Anamarie snuck outside with Brett to enjoy the rain. As you can see, she was bundled up nicely, but Brett was barely dressed. Luckily I found them before anyone got too wet.

Sneaking mommies makeup!!

Anamarie has become so intrigued with my makeup lately. I keep catching her in my bathroom beautifying herself as she carefully puts on the eyeshadow, lipstick, blush and mascara. Her newest finding was the eyebrow pencil, notice the eyebrows in the picture :)

Just like Mommy!!


I Walked in on Anamarie feeding her little baby, just like mommy :)

Troop 1174


Taylor's Boy Scout Troop 1174 is an amazing group of boys and leaders. We all met up at Mutual Del in the American Fork canyon for the Court of Honor. From funny skits, to advancements, to Russ Dailey's food smashing infomercial, the night was sure to entertain all ages. Taylor was awarded 8 merit badges and advanced to his Star. He is on track to get his Eagle in the next year; thanks to an incredible Scout Master; Russ Dailey.

Taylor's growing UP!!

At 13 years old, Taylor stands 5'10" tall, and weighs 120 pounds. He wears a size 10.5 in men's shoes, 28 waist 32 long in men's pants, and size adult medium in shirts. He's 6 inches taller than me, and it's really trippin' me out!! He's a great kid, and we are so proud of him.

He is currently in 8th grade at American Fork Junior High School. He has been working very hard in school to get straight A's and because of this, he has been invited to attend the Discover DC Program this summer. He is very excited to go, and we are saving up for him to attend this week long educational program.

Taylor is on track to get his Eagle Scout when he turns 14. He has an incredible Boy Scout Master who keeps his boys motivated. He is currently a Star and has completed all his Star and Life requirements but has to wait 10 months before he can get his Eagle. We are soo proud of him!!

Taylor's 8th Grade Pictures


Taylor was very excited about his school pictures this year. In the past, he thought he was too cheesy, or he didn't like his smile; but this was a different story :)
