Emma's ballet recital

Emma's ballet class did the Nutcracker "party girl" dance for their winter recital. Emma's the cute one (the one in the reddish dress). She loves taking ballet.

Kid pictures

Tayla's mom (Jana) wanted to get Tayla and Charles together to take pictures. They have a ton of fun together! Charles was being so goofy.






Jana was kind enough to take pictures of my other kids too. Unfortunately we couldn't get one of all four kids together because Maya was crying and Charles was making silly faces.

Thanksgiving weekend

For Thanksgiving we went down to Spanish Fork to Chris and Jamie's house. This was our first Thanksgiving without Dad and Mom...weird! But we had lots of fun; also got to see Janice and Sean and Tori.
As is tradition, we put up our Christmas tree the day after Thanksgiving. We let the kids put on all the ornaments by themselves...

James took Emma on a daddy-daughter date to see The Nutcracker. They had a lot of fun!
