Crazy Weather

We've had a beautiful Fall - high's in the mid-70's and low's in the mid-50's. Now the weather is getting crazy. Saturday's high was only 46 degrees F - a record-low high temperature for Oct. 11 in Salt Lake City. It rained on and off all day and then the rain turned to snow in the evening. We got nearly two inches of snow overnight. I'M NOT READY FOR WINTER! So...good news (and more craziness). By next Saturday, Oct. 18, the high will again be in the mid-70's. From snow to mid-70's in one week. Weird.

Toe...Out...See?

For the past few days, Parker has been sick. He wakes up a few times each night coughing and/or crying. Usually when we ask what's wrong he says something like his ear hurts, or his head hurts, or he's thirsty, or he's too hot or whatever. Tonight he woke up coughing and crying and Jessica and I went upstairs to see what was wrong this time. I asked Parker why he was crying and he pointed to his right foot (where there is a small hole in his pajama foot) and, in between sobs, cries, "Toe...out...see?" It was HILARIOUS!

Flag Football

We signed Landon up for flag football this year. He has loved it, and he's pretty good too. His last game was last Thursday, October 2. We had not gotten any video of him playing so we took our camera to this game. I had the camera sitting in my lap for most of the game and then I realized that it was getting pretty dark and I hadn't taken any video yet. So I decided to film the next play. It just so happened that the coach put Landon in as the running back for that play. They were about 50 yards from the endzone. I will let you watch the video to see the result of the play! (Landon is in the red jersey just to the left of the guy in the "STAFF" shirt.)

Good times!

Welcome

This is my first attempt at a blog. I hope it will be like an online journal, an account of things we do, both individually and as a family. I look forward to writing our tales; I hope you enjoy reading them.
