Leaves

I was looking through all our pictures, and trying to find some basketball pictures of Amandee to put on her poster for the display case at school

and I came across these pictures of Nathan and all the leaves that he helped rake this past fall. Jaron took the pictures.

Snowmen

Yes I still have this thing for snowmen
With moving into a new house this past July, I had to find a new place for my village of snowmen. I did not have as big as space to put them this year, and I only got one new snowman:(

Basketball Season

Hooray its Basketball Season!! The bad news is.... we only get to watch 40 games this season instead of the 60 games watched last season. Amandee is playing on the Sophomore team (with a possible chance on getting playing time on the JV team) and Karla is playing Varsity. She is 1 of 5 seniors this year. And I'm playing team mom this season....wait I played team mom last year, when will I ever learn????

Amandee had to sit the bench for the 1st game.....she hurt her foot and is trying to get it better. So sad We love you Amandee!!!!




Karla, Hailey and Arielle.....Both Karla and Hailey wish they were taller.


This year the varsity team is a little on the short side... they are playing a 4 guards and 1 post rotation, so far so good we won our first game 64-43.
Karla had 10 points, (2 three pointers) 4 steals, and 1 turnover not too bad for a 1st game. The best part is the next picture......




Karla walking off the court after she FOULED OUT yes you read that correctly she fouled out with 2:12 left in the 4th quarter. Grandpa Erickson told her you get 5 fouls, but you are only supposed to use 4 of them.

Karla and Amandee have a great season. HAVE FUN and GOOD LUCK!!!

Jaron

Jarons football season comes to a end :( I love watching my kids Jaron had a lot of fun this season, Kory helped coach his team again this season. I'm not sure who had more fun Jaron, or Kory.






During one of Nathans football game, Jaron decided it would be fun to climb the tree at the park, good news it ended okay. No broken bones!




Jaron receiving his wolf badge. Way to go!!!

Halloween

Okay so it has been a long time since I posted....that is because our computer crashed, and Kory has been trying to get it to work again. He has had no luck so we had to break down a buy a new computer which will be here in a couple of weeks. And since I know so much about Computers....NOT ( every time I ask Kory how to do something on the computer he tells me to take a class so I can learn how to do things on the computer, but I'm too tired to take another class.) So this past weekend I down loaded all my pictures onto the laptop, by myself (mind you that both Karla and Amandee laughed at me the whole time because I kept asking them how to do things.) So hopefully I did something right and I will be able to find the pictures to down loaded.

This year Nathan was a dead baker, and Jaron was a nerd.
So Cute!!






Don't you just love my bullet hole?!? One of my instructors want to do the makeup, but most of the girls had to go to work, and they didn't want to have a bullet hole on their forehead, so I said I would let her do it. It was pretty funny watching everyone take a double take when they saw me. I was walking around the hall at school, and some kid thought it was real, and asked me if it hurt. Kory thought it would be funny to scare the kids, so when each of them came home from school, I would lay on the floor and Kory would be kneeing beside me like I was dead. Karla had the best reaction out of the kids! It was priceless




Amandee was Super Hero Amandee



Karla and Hailey were twin babies!!


Our ward Halloween party

Homecoming

Daddy's little girl...can't hold on forever!!

Football Season

Nathan and Jaron are playing flag football again this season. It has been fun watching them play.

This past week Kory decided to give me my graduation present early, a very nice camera, so I have been having a lot of fun taking pictures and learning how to use it. The following pictures are of Nathan's Touchdown today. You should click on the images and get a close up of Nathan's face!
