HOW BAILEY REALLY FELT ABOUT SANTA THIS YEAR,

AND THE THINGS THEY CAN DO WITH PHOTOSHOP!!!

A Little Preview of Teagan.

Grandma has all our Halloween pics on her camera so i couldn't put them on but Teagan had a few different costumes and Bailey liked this one the best!! More halloween pics to come.

THE FIRST SNOW

Teagan has been asking of it going to snow for about 2-3 weeks. He was so excited when i told him there was snow outside on sunday morning. He wanted to go out and eat all the snow (yuck!). I made him wait till it had stopped and he took Bailey out and ate snow off of the table. (No yellow snow). He also got to swear his new snow boots - SPIDERMAN!! Now thats another story that I will get back to you about.

THE ZOO

We decided that we would follow in auntie Kristins shoes and go visit the Zoo one last time before it got to cold. (We are not going to do the BOO at the ZOO this year - last year was horrible and we didn't get to see any animals and left with maybe 10 pieces of candy). I took the kids and Rozanna (the babysitter) and Jackson (one of the kids at the babysitters) & Missy and the kids met us there.

BAILEY HELPIN OUT!!

Bailey is such a big girl. She likes to do anything that anyone else can do. So I decided to take advantage of it and show her how to do laundry. Maybe together we can keep up with it. I have started to work graveyard shifts and so I get to stay home with them during the day - SO if you have any suggestions for the long winter hangin out in the house let me know.

Here is the story in short: At Sherrie, Don, Brodie, & Brindys family reunion about a month ago they were out riding four wheelers. Unfortunatly there was a little hole that was not seen by Craig, (Stacys husband & Brodies cousin) He along with a family friend were catapulted off the four wheeler - They were knocked out & nobody was around. Craig came to about 40 minutes later to find Morgan still unconcious. He found her cell phone and dialed 911. They arrived just in time - Morgan stopped breathing. They were able to get her stablized and transfered her to provo hospital. She is still in there and will be for awhile with her head injury. She has been responding and new reports think she will be ok. Anyways the family is doing a fund raiser for Morgans family this sunday at Murray park. We will be there all day playing volleyball and there is lots of playgrounds for the kids. If your not doing anything you could come and play too

FALL IS HERE

Uncle Brody called and asked if we would like to go on a little hike. I could just see myself carrying Teagan and Bailey up the mountain - Nick was hunting and would be of no help in this situation - but what the hell we went anyway. We went up to Brighton and it was gorgeous. The weather was perfect till we got up on the mountain and then it started to thunder and before we knew it - RAIN! O-well it was fun anyway thanks for inviting us Brody and Brindy. The picture with the kids explains it all - Bailey thinks she is as big as Teagan. She wanted to walk with the big kids and did not need help. It was Teagan that ended up asking to be carried up the mountain. She is growin up way to fast.

CATALINA!! CATALINA!! CATALINA!!

We took the boat into Avalon and went to visit Great Grandpa & Grandma McELroy. Great Grandpa is sick and was in the hospital so we didn't get to see him why we were on the island. We did go see him on the day we flew home- we love you and hope you get better soon. Then we still had an hour drive to the other side of the island. We were all exhausted from the plane and boat ride so we took a little nap on the ride over. We didn't get to play in the water much the first day, but for the next 9 days we were at the beach every day!! Teagan and Bailey were so much fun. Bailey would not leave Teagans side and they were so cute together. It was alot of work for a vacation but worth every bit of it. We had so much fun. Cant wait till next our next trip over.




Grandma Catalina & Teagan
on the boogy board.

Nick and Teagan also found a lizard on their way back from getting snails. Teagan is giving the lizard a kiss!!!

We took a kite out to Cat harbor and tried to get it to fly but the wind was blowning everywhere so we were not able to get it to work. Nick caught a couple of sharks and Sting rays out here also. It is so fun to catch that stuff and let the kids see it and then we throw it back and wait for the next catch. Its always a surprize what your gonna get on the other end of the pole.

What a life - after a hard day at the beach we had to go back and relax in Grandpa and Grandmas hot tub!




Teagan and Bailey got to pet a sting ray that Nick caught.

At the beach again. Teagans mask and snorkle. He wears this quite often and if you come to the house you may be asked to try it on. In these pictures the white house in the background is Grandpa and Grandma Catalinas. It was just a walk out if the house and down a few stairs and we were at the beach. It was so nice just to run up to go potty or get a snack and then right back down.

Look at the smiles on their faces!! Nick, David, and James had an

awesome day of fishin. 15 Dorado, and a very large mako shark!

This is my very favorite fish to eat. James was the one on the end

of that pole. Good Job boys!

The kids loved Grandmas tomato patch!!!

This was a fun day at the beach - Trevor caught the kids a few crabs and put them in a hole in the sand and the kids watched them. Bailey wasn't scared a bit she was tryin to stick her feet in the hole with the crabs. We built some real good sand castles.




Tuddy girl is Uncle Jeffs cat and she can be a fiesty one. But Bailey could roll on top of her and almost be sittin on her and she didn't once try to scratch or bit her. Tuddy would actually come and find Bailey and lay down by her. No one could believe Tuddy could ever be nice like this.

Lora and Davis had a BBQ for us so that everyone could come over and visit. It was so fun - the kids loved everyone and had so much fun. We love all of you guys and miss you already.

We all went out to Cat Harbor to see Grandpa's tractors. Nick even took Teagan for a ride. (Didn't know Nick could drive tractors did ya - neither
did I!) Teagan loved it. He thought he was in heaven.

At the beach again. Nick put on his gear and got his spear gun - then he rented us a kayak with a glass bottom and pulled us around so we could see the fish and all the sting rays.

This was the last night and we went for a stroll on the beach while we waited for the boys to get home from fishin. Grandma drew divermans in the sand for Teagan.

The boys pulled through once again with some

big old Tuna. They were exhausted from a long day fishin.

And then we had to go.
