Balloon Animals

Justin went to his friend's birthday party today and came back with these animals. At the party they had a balloon man come and make the little kids animals. The balloons that Justin got were a monkey, octopus, and a sword. They are pretty amazing and VERY cute.

Brianna had to get a picture with the balloons!

Justin and the awesome balloons.

Brothers

When their Grandpa & Grandma left on their mission (which they are still waiting for their visas so have not entered the Grandpa gave us his little gray truck. The door handles & the driver's side window did not work, so with the help of Lon, they were able to get them working. Also, one of the back tail lights was broken so we bought replacement lights. They are more than thrilled to have a truck to run around in.

Milk bubbles

Did you ever do this when you were a child? Seeing Justin blow milk bubbles brought back some fun memories for me!

BYU

Tyler received his acceptance letter to BYU today. He is very excited! Go Cougars!

Basement

Thanks to Paul putting up walls, we are on our way to finishing our basement. When we are done, we will have 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, food storage room and large family room. Yeah!

Nose

Tyler has been doing good in wrestling this year. A few weeks ago, he was at wrestling practice and hit his nose against his friends head while they were wrestling. We think Tyler broke his nose. He wrestled for a little while without protecting his nose but then decided that his nose hurt too bad, so he started wearing a mask, while wrestling, to protect his nose.
