A few random highlights from last year. And someday I will have Kim personally
tutor me on the finer points of blogger formatting. A side note: My apologies to
posting late, I had temporarily lost my post. Apparently, I also need a lesson
in delay timed posting.

 |
| Leopard Slug found in our backyard. These are apparently common in the Northwest, but I've never seen them in Utah. Sidenote: Their slime does not come off your hands with normal dish soap (I tried 3 times!) You have to scrub it off with a towel. |
 |
| Date night with Dennis to see the Avengers. |
 |
| Porter, Spencer, and Ethan at Renfaire. |
 |
| Renfaire: Posing with a skeleton in a hanging cage. I told the kids that if they didn't behave, they would end up in the hang cage as well. Eden later asked if I would really do that to them. I assured her that I was just teasing. I did feel a little guilty that she took it rather seriously...she was well behaved though. |
 |
| Ethan playing last game of La Roca soccer. |
 |
| Renfaire: Note the look of incredulity on Sean's face. His penchant for snarky comments were put to excessive use while we tarried at what he termed the "freak fest". |
 |
| La Roca- last game. |
 |
| What you can't see is the deep & nasty bite mark on the under side of his lip. This is a result of a surprise high bounce on the trampoline. |
 |

The Grand Tetons mocking me from a distance..jpg) Joseph. I was pleased to see my costume hadn't hiked up to my skivvies (which it sometimes did), nobody wants to see that. Also, my wig didn't fly off and I wasn't dropped (both of which had happened before), another plus.  or, "New Year's Resolution Busters" as they since have become known. Just to remind you all how hungry y'all are. THE END....or is it?!! |

Oh my goodness I'm so glad you were able to find it!!! You did a lot of work to get this up! And I LOVE IT!!!!! What a fun idea to recap your year. You guys had a fun year! I really want to take a trip to Yellowstone, Ethan's never been and its been since I was like 8 since I've been there. You are awesome, you fancy dancer you! And those cinnamon rolls look super yummy, is that my mom's recipe? I just have to say, I love how Spencer poses in pictures. His personality just screams through! :)
Holy cow that was awsome. I loved all of the pictures and the story that goes with them. You and Sean certainly are showing everyone how to enjoy Yellowstone! Talk about steaming hot! The Halloween costumes are fabulous. When did you go to the Ren. Fair? Looks like it would have been soooo fun. Gavin's poor lip! I remember when it was that way. So glad that it is all healed now. Ethan sure played great in the soccer games. And last but not least the cinn. rolls look sooooo yummy! Thank you, thank you.
Love you tons Mom Holliday
We'll go back to Yellowstone anytime, Kimmy. That was a fun trip. So if you guys get a hankering to go and want some company, let us know.
Now for a game. I'll make snarky comments on random pictures for the post and everyone else can try to figure out which comment goes with which picture:
1-Between Spencer's Halloween costume and Ethan's expression in this picture, my kid's stand no chance.
2-"I remember the time we buried uncle Bob at the beach. Boy did we get in trouble. In fact, we got arrested. It turns out you can't bury people at the beach; only at the cemetery."
3-The difference between my kids and Richy's kids.
4-Great, Heather, now it looks like I'm drinking beer.
5-Completely her idea. I'm so proud.
OK, Sean, I will play your little game.
1- The picture "on our way to Ren Festival?
2- Spencer on the beach
3-I think it has to be the skeleton pic... I love how Eden is snuggling with Porter and Skye is hugging a skeleton! And Lincoln and Gavin's expressions are completely opposite. Hilarious!
4-Date night with Dennis (we liked the movie... did you?)
5- Cinnamon Rolls. Yum.
Did I win? :)
