We went to the Dallas Airport last night to see Mom and Dad on their layover to Argentina. Here is a picture at the airport. Also Mom loves to hear Ashton do his train whistle so we videoed this also. Enjoy!


Justin is working on his outdoorsman in Weblos and they went on a hike this week. He had a fun time but came back tired and muddy!

It was Davens last season game and Senior night. We got to escort Daven onto the field and they acknowledged every senior that was in football, cheerleading, band, drillteam, color guard, honor guard and more. We started 45 min before the game. Pic is not the best but i hope we can get a better one from other photographer.







Halloween 2009. It was 74 degrees still when we went over to the church for Trunk-o-Treating. Didn't even need a jacket to go around the neighborhood.



Daven had a combined activity with the Laurels and Priests. They were at a park doing a service project yet this is how he came home, covered in egg and flour.

Thank goodness there are leather seats in the suburban!



Brandon had a project for science with the "mole theory". They could do anything that had the theme of mole and have the mathmatical theory on it in some way. Brandon decided to make a cake of Wack a Mole. then he put the theorm on the score board. It turned out great!



Daven and Brandon have been able to sing the National Anthem at the last few football games. Here are some pics of that. I did not video it because there is so much echo you can't hear it very well.

Friday night lights

here are some pics from football and a little video. You know there are three main religions here is Texas, Christianity, Baptists and FOOTBALL!















Here are this years pumpkins. We have a tradition to carve our pumpkins the monday before halloween, but this year they didn't last even until Thursday and since halloween was on Saturday we didn't have any lit. Maybe need to consider changing that tradition while in Texas.

Wades mom(on left) and her sisters sang this song at the court of honor. My dad did the speaking part. I really liked it. Sorry the sound isn't the greatest.

Brandon finished his Eagle Project just a week before we left Utah. His board of review was 2 days before we left but all went well and he is now recieving his eagle. He will be presented his Eagle on Sat. September 19, 2009 at 6:00 pm in Fort Worth. We are excited about this and glad that both Grandma and Grandpa Jones and Ritchie will be able to attend. Tim's son Wade, just 7 days younger that Brandon, will be recieving his Eagle with Brandon.


Here is our new house. It is alot bigger in living aspects but i have had to be ingenious to get all of our food storage and things that were in the shed to fit so we could also use the garage which is something that alot of people here do not us for cars.

Potty trained at last

I have been trying since last August to get Ashton to potty train as was about to give up. I even took him to the doctor that told me to give it a rest for a time and then start over. Well i went home and not two days later he started to go pee by himself. and then another 5 days later he finished up and now got his tomas the train that i bribed him with. Oh happy day!!!!!!
