Way Behind
I’ve gotten way behind on posting. Sorry. Too much going on and not enough time to document it all. Here’s a brief re-cap…
Kezia finished her first season of soccer and had a fun time.
Zephram finished yet another season of soccer and still likes it.
Zephram competed in his first cub scout push cart races - super fun!
I took 3 of the kids to a super lame pumpkin patch at a local elementary school. Sorry, I won’t pay $15 for a pumpkin.
Not in pictures…
Caemlyn competed in her first swim meet of the short course season and did well. The meet was in Abq the same weekend as Zeph’s last soccer game and pushcart races, so she, Kezia and Justin (he swam too) and stayed the night while I stayed home with the rest of the kids. The same weekend I ran in the annual Yum Run 5K and got a new PR. Zeph and Ada ran in the Yum Run 1K.
This last weekend we went to Abq so Justin could swim in 1 race and then took the kids to the zoo. Just happened to be their annual Zoo Boo, so it was packed with kids in Halloween costumes - but at least all the kids got in free and got to TorT for candy too. I think Tyghe enjoyed his first visit to the zoo. Friday, Justin got the last of our concrete walkway removed and our 60 foot spruce is now in huge pieces in the backyard. The amount of light now coming in the front of the house in the morning is amazing. Then Sunday the kids had their annual primary program. The kids all did a great job with their parts and singing all of the songs. Very different to sit through most of sacrament meeting with just Justin and Tyghe. It’s crazy watching the kids grow up. Watching Caemlyn on the stand, I kept trying to figure out when she got so grown up - then I watched her bounce back to her seat after saying her part and knew she’s still my little girl.

I love all the pictures! Ada is such a beauty in that pic on the pumpkins. Everyone is getting so big!
You guys are such an active and athletic family!! I agree with Emily, everybody just looks so big! I feel like we just saw you guys, but the kids look so different…especially Tyghe, not looking at all like a baby anymore! I loved to hear about all the light in your house now that the tree is gone. I’m a big windows and natural light kinda gal
But I think my favorite part was hearing about Caemlyn bouncing back to her seat. 
I was just thinking the other day how when I met Caemlyn she was Hannah’s age! I remember I was driving her and Zeph home from some where one night and she saw the Provo temple in the distance and sang the first verse of I Love to See the Temple all the way through! What a sweet girl! 
Aw - such cute kiddies. I love the pushcart! Does the pack own those? I would like to have seen Zeph taking care of the littles while you ran the 5k. It is sad when a tree has to come down. I cried the day my dead pine tree was cut down. I sure miss all of you! Glad you are all finding joy in the mundanities (is that a word?) of life.
I can’t believe how much they have all changed. Especially Tyghe. He looks like a little man. I can make you feel better about the pumpkin…. I went to get one here and it was 184 Qatari Riyal. That is $51.11. Needless to say, we did not have a pumpkin this year.
