November 2018


For Lexi's 15th Birthday, she didn't want a cake, she wanted a huge rice Krispy!!  She got it!




We tried out the Group FaceTime for the first time...




Our trip to Utah for Thanksgiving!










Met Carly and Sudie for dinner one night.


We always have to get a pic of Brock and Peyton, the "twins".





Homemade family feud!  So much work for Annie.  And so fun!



Annual bowling with a million people!  






Got to fit in a little lunch outing with Brittany, Karli and Tiff.





Always love our time at Gam & Pa's.  So welcoming and fun and cozy.





Back home to my baby...



Jordyn wanted to have a friends gathering so we got the backyard set up with a fire pit and some gourmet S'mores for the kids.  I think they had a decent time.  




Some before and afters for Lexi and Peyton's birthday hair-dos.






Second annual Dancegiving!









Some work training, showing our supervisor the ways we use various technology.


And our fundraiser to get a student (Luis) an iPhone was very successful and he was SO surprised!


The school also offered a stipend to spend at Target, so we took him to get a new hoodie and new shoes.



Thanksgiving Feast at Clay School.




Eden and Peyton off to Science Camp for a few days!



Me and Laura, my student.




My mom put together some cool music and movement classes for kids.  It was a great run and people LOVED it.  Until the owner of the establishment hired a total jerk and he basically treated my mom like garbage.  The session didn't last as long as she wanted, but she did SO well with what she DID do.






Happy birthday dad!  Here's a Texas chocolate sheet cake to celebrate!











A little hip hop with Reggie. Everyone was trying to wear a hoodie to dress like Reggie.

Coach Jill calls Lexi her "samba" in this picture.





One of the things I came up with for Peyton to earn back her phone (iPod).  She had been very disrespectful in her communication, so she needed a reset.  She actually does SO well with lists like this! 



Family pictures with the tripod!






Sometimes the tiniest things really help.  The bread was bothering me sitting all over the counter, so I just found this little stand on amazon and it made a huge difference!




And, time for the Christmas Decor!







Oh yeah, Lexi was asked to Formal by a classmate named Jason. She was excited to go to formal with her friends, and didn't really care about the date part ha ha
