The circus

Last week, the boys school gave all the students free tickets to the Jordan World Circus. Of course they begged to go. I had never been to a circus before so I thought that it would be fun, so I told the boys if they could come up with one more ticket for Ellie I would consider it. The next day I think they brought home 4 extra tickets. So I considered it.

THE JORDAN WORLD CIRCUS

Before the show entertainment, Elephant rides.Camel rides.Here we are waiting for the show. Ellie was pouting because we would not buy the outragously expensive cotton candy.The had 6 beautiful tigers.Jumping through hoops.Tightrope walkers.Blancing swords2 black bearsThese guys were crazy. Running around on the outside of the cages.AcrobatsThe elaphants were definately a favorite. Very cute.Jugglers on balance boards.These two did their act twisted in the curtains.

And there are 4 guys on motercycles in this cage. Amazing!

There was many more things going on as well but here were some of the highlights. It was a lot of fun and I am glad the boys convnced us to go.

Halloween

Nothing like trunk or treat in the rain. Because it was cold and rainy it turned into a quick activity. Batman and Superman Red Power Ranger and Cinderellie.

Tiger spent the trunk or treat asleep in the car, same as last year. But she stayed dry and warm. When we got home she raided the boys treats, while thry were having hot chocolate and sitting in front of the fire.

Hayden's Baptism

Hayden is Eight! What a great age.

His baptism date happened to fall on Labor Day weekend and we knew some of our family members would not be able to come because of this, so we asked Hayden if he wanted to wait a month so more family could be there. He said he had already waited 8 years for this and did not want to wait any longer.

We are proud that he chose to be baptised. He is a great kid.

Thanks to all those who came to support Hayden. We have a great family!

ONE!

My baby is one!This year has gone by so fast it is hard to believe our little Taylie Mae is getting so big.

She is a very sweet girl, and we are so glad to have her in our family.

We love you, beautiful girl!

Raptors Game

Every year the boys baseball teams hand out free tickets to see an Ogden Raptors game (they are a local minor league team). This year Lynnette and her kids were in town and knowing how much some of them like baseball we invited her boys to go with us. They were so excited even though we had to sit clear out by left field. We were hoping for a few foul balls but this year we had no such luck.Waiting for the game to start.They played against the Helena Brewers. Tanner, Adam, Hayden, Isaac, Devin and EllieWaiting for the game to be over. The Raptors won 19-1. The best part of the night getting autographs.

The team is very kind and sign what ever the kids hand them.
