Basketball 2015

Basketball games have started and both kids did well in their first game. Of course Dan and I are coaching Brayden's team again but most of the coaching has fallen on Dan with the help of Scott and my Dad. Thanks for helping!!! I guess since I'm supposed to take it easy for the next few weeks and not really do that much, I can sit back and take pictures and try not to coach from the side. Thanks to Mom and Dad too for helping with Bridger at the games, he is such a busy kid and just wants to go and go and go.  Here are a few pictures of the kids and Dan in action.

Christmas 2014

We had a great Christmas that flew by. We were able to go to Arco to my parents house for a few days and hang out while Dan had to work nights. The kids had to wait for Dad to get home in the morning before we could start the fun. They did pretty well waiting for 2 hours.

We opened a few gifts on the 23rd so we had room to go to Arco, the kids were thrilled to open a few early. They loved them!

Christmas eve all the kids opened one present filled with Christmas Jammies.

Christmas morning after Dad got home and the fun could begin. We were all spoiled! Thanks everyone for the gifts!!

Sept - Nov 2014

Once School started so did Brayden's football season with Dan coaching and Ashlyn started her first year in Volleyball. We also got to watch Ashlyn perform at a few football games. Once again our weekly schedule is super busy but our kids love to stay busy. Brayden also turned twelve on Oct 11th. He had fun with a couple friends and a few family members on his birthday after we got home from a football game and a volleyball game. Halloween flew by but the kids had fun even though Dad was working and the older kids had to help Bridger. Thanksgiving has also come and gone but we were able to visit with all my siblings this year at my parents home. All the cousins had a lot of fun playing outside and shooting pellet guns. It has been a while since we were all together at one time for Thanksgiving. We also got to see some of Dan's family that afternoon at the Keller's home. I didn't get any pictures. I must have spaced it. I think for now I am officially caught up. Enjoy the pictures, sorry they are out of order in this post.

July-Aug 2014

July and August were busy as well. We had family reunions, swim lessons, more sports camps, Ash was in the 4th of July parade along with having her regular scheduled dance team practice each week. The summer flew by and school started once again. I swear my kids are growing up way too fast.

May - June 2014

Well I guess it is time to get caught up. This past May we took a family trip/Swanson reunion to Disney Land. We drove and the kids did remarkably well. We all had a blast and I know the kids would love to go back. We also had baseball and softball along with camps and all the other fun summer things going on. When we got home from California we also found out some great news that we were expecting our fourth child who is due in about 9 weeks. We are super thrilled to be adding a boy to our family!
