Thanksgiving Point Giveaway!

I have just recently discovered this fun blog. C Jane's Guide to Provo. Apparently I tend to avoid the outer edges of blogs...you know the ones where there is more information and links.

Once you go to her site, you'll wonder how I ever could have missed it. But I'll blame it on tunnel vision induced by sleep deprivation related to school. That and the daily chaos of our family.

Miss C Jane (I wonder if her friends call her Courtney? I know Matt Lauer does.) is giving away a family pass to Thanksgiving Point. Wouldn't you love to win a family pass to Thanksgiving point? I submit that you would, indeed! Go here.

Of course, if you do not live in Utah, it may not come in handy. But I know that as my friend, you will gladly give it to me, right? I thought so. I love you, too!

It's Great to Be 8!

Sledding into the New Year!

We had the Eastman's over for New Year's Eve. After much eating and game playing, we finally went to bed around 4:30 in the morning. Once we had about 6 hours of sleep, we met them at the hill in our neighborhood for some snow fun!

Here are some random action shots...

Fun at Aunt Kari's...right?

We thought it would be fun to have all of the cousins lie in a circle and take a picture...it didn't quite work, but the effort was fun!
