Merry Christmas 2015!!

We woke up to a White Christmas!!  What a wonderful surprise!  

The best thing about Christmas this year was being able to talk to Tanner!!  :)

 While Kevin took G&G Hawkins to the airport, we started shoveling.  It was wet, heavy snow, but a good distraction while Kevin was gone.

Annual Lewis Bowling and Hawkins Christmas Eve

Christmas Sing and Temple Square

I'm posting this photo mostly because it makes me laugh.  Tate DID NOT want to participate in the Christmas sing, and by golly, he DIDN'T!!  LOL!!! He just stood there looking incredibly ornery for the 3 songs he was supposed to sing.

Later that night we headed up to Temple Square with the Lewis Clan.  It was so pretty, and really not very crowded.  Getting there, however, was a joke.  The Jazz, Utah Symphony, and MoTab were all performing and there was NO parking.  Oh well.  We finally found a place and it was great!  I love my family!

Happy 17th Birthday Ty!!

Another year has flown by!  Can't believe this kid is 17!!  For his birthday we took a few of his friends to Pizza Pie Cafe, followed by the new Star Wars movie.  I sure love this boy!

L-R:  Jordan Kirby, Kaino Pula, Payton Henry, Ty, and Hunter Kirby

Turkey Trot

Happy Halloween!!

Lehi Clutch Season Champions/Flag Football Champions

This crazy group of boys played their entire fall league and didn't lose a single game.  Tate had a blast!!

On a completely other note...His team also won the Flag Football Championship!!  Tate played quarterback the entire season and had a BLAST!!  It's been a good Fall!

PGHS Homecoming

PGHS Homecoming 2015-2016

First Day of School!!

Camping

Don't be too shocked, but we went camping this summer!!  The ROI boys had a hunt, and invited all of the families to join them.  It was a fun couple of days!

End of Summer Adventure

We finally got to the Provo River at the very end of the summer...what a day it was!  We had a blast until I tried to save Tate and Gage from impending doom (floating into some sharp reeds on the side of the river) and was pulled forward by the current.  It sliced a pretty good chunk out of my leg.  Luckily, the water was cold and it kept the swelling down, but boy-oh-boy did it bleed!!  The kids had a blast!

A Few Random Things

We had a fun few days supporting Bailee in her soccer tournament, visiting with Arizona friends, and getting fun email photos from Tanner. 

Triple Crown World Series

Tate has had so much fun with this new team, The Clutch!  They got to participate in the Triple Crown World Series in Park City, which was SUPER cool!  There were so many teams, and very good competition!  It was a lot of fun!  Tate participated in the "Throwing Accuracy Contest".  There were 81 contestants and he got THIRD PLACE!!!  Great job, TATE!!
