2011, A Whole Lotta Livin Goin On!

Cute Kiddos

Sam explaining to Santa on the Polar express which three lego sets he would like for Christmas
Santa handing Emily her bell, I guess we all believe in Santa because we heard the bell loud and clear all the way home.
Hailey and Seth getting their Hot Choc-o-late
All Aboard the Polar Express!
BYU -VS- TCU Horny Toads at Dallas Cowboy stadium in Dallas, Aaron I went by ourselves! Mom and Dad came and watched the kids while we went away for the first time by ourselves since having kids. We stayed at the Gaylord and went shopping it was so fun!
Seths spy party, turning 8 yrs old
Sam's 6 year old cowboy party!
Nate and LIanna got married in Austin,TX by a judge
Mom and Dad stayed with us for the month of Nov and had Thanksgiving with us, I made my first turkey!
BYU soccer camp with cousins Jada and Rocky, so fun
2011 Thompson Family Reunion held in Spanish Fork at Chris and Karens house
We had a medieval theme complete with a raid on cardboard castles and medieval buffet eaten with our hands and served by wenches (not really but we did have goblets)
So cute of grandma and Julene!
Aspen Grove!!
The Elliott family won the water follies!!
Hailey right before her terrifying experience on the ropes course. She rock climbed to the top but when she got half way through the course, she was so high up, she froze. Thank goodness for her camp leader who climbed up and helped her make it through.
Aaron and I did the rope course as well, so fun!
Hailey got a cute new pup for her 11 year old birthday and she named him Petey. He's really weaseled his way into our hears, all though I still get mad when I see a little pile of somethin somethin left behind by him in the house.
We went to Missouri to see 4th of July fireworks at Aaron's grandmas house. Because of the drought in Texas, fireworks were banned. In good ole missouri on the other hand, Aaron's uncle Jim brought 3 days of incredible fireworks! We were up close and personal. We also went and saw city fireworks and made ice-cream in a baggie.
Sam graduated from preschool and started kindergarten, he is doing so well but we are sad that his teacher Mrs. Van Netzer has cancer.
Ryan and Charity got married for time and eternity in the Salt Lake City temple!
