Briana's Wedding

Saturday was Bri's wedding day. It was a beautiful day and the weather was perfect. The sealing was very beautiful and the Reception was amazing! It was at the JW Marriott. Bri looked so beautiful and happy. She and Johnny are so cute together!

Happy Thanksgiving

We had such a great Thanksgiving. My parents were able to come down and spend the weekend with us. They got here Thursday morning and we all went over to Bill and Roselle's house for a great Thanksgiving dinner. It was so great to have both of our parents together with us for the holiday. Especially since last Thanksgiving was very lonely because both of our families were in Utah and we were here in Vegas. Roselle was amazing to cook for 20 people 2 days before Briana's wedding. That woman never stops! That night my parents watched the kids while we went to see "4 Christmases" with the Palmers. It was really funny!

Happy Birthday Dawson!

Last Sunday was Dawson's 3rd birthday. I can't believe he's 3 already. Here are some pics of his Spiderman party.

TWILIGHT!

Most people who know me know that I am a huge fan of the Twilight series. I read Twilight a couple years ago and have been hooked ever since. Ever since they announced that they would be making Twilight into a movie I was like a kid waiting for Christmas morning. Yesterday was opening night of Twilight and of course I was there. It was so much fun! I went with a couple friends from the ward who share my excitement for Twilight. Here are some pics of our fun night!

Silly kids

Last night the kids had so much fun playing with this build a bear wig. Now we know what Dawson and Kale would look like if they would have been girls. Hopefully this doesn't mess them up for life.

Halloween 2008

Okay, so it's taken me a while to figure out this whole blogging thing... 1 posting in the last 2 months. What can I say? Computers are not my specialty. I know it's a little late, but I wanted to post some pictures from Halloween. The kids had so much fun! Between our ward trunk-or-treat and Haloween night trick-or-treating, the kids really raked in the candy. We told them they could only keep 25 pieces each and the rest was going in the trash (or in a secret drawer only mom and dad knew about). So after some groaning they narrowed it down to their top picks. Kylie was Hannah Montana (of coarse), Dawson was Spiderman (who else would he've been?), and Kale just wore a Halloween outfit because he had out grown the monkey costume we bought for him by the time Halloween came. That kid is growing like a weed!

Dawson's back in the hospital

Well, just a week after we got the good news that Dawson's thyroid nodule was benign, he was back in the hospital. On Wednesday we noticed Dawson was guarding his neck and wouldn't move his head, like he did in the beginning of this whole ordeal. He also had a fever of 101, so we called the surgeon and she said to take him to the hospital. He was admitted that night and they immediately started him on IV antibiotics. His fever returned whenever the tylenol wore off. The next morning he had an ultrasound of his neck which just showed fluid in his thyroid, but that didn't tell us much. The doctors are just baffled about what is causing this infection. If it happens again they will do more tests and possibly more surgery. He was able to come home on Friday on antibiotics. It amazes me how brave Dawson has been through out this whole crazy thing. It is more than any 2 year old should ever have to go through.
