SURPRISE!!!

I got a pretty serious phone call from my father this evening asking Jeff and I to come over so that Jeff could help my him give my mom a blessing. He was going on and on as to why he wanted us to come and why he didn't just call the home teachers. So of course we agreed and we packed up little Avery...
{baby Avery:)}

and away we went off into the night. The front door was locked as usual and so Jeff knocked and we waited in the cold and guess who opened the door. Let me tell you who

it was not...
{my dad}
it also was not...
{my mom}
it wasn't even...

{Annabelle}

Who, you ask, opened the door for us?


None other than this little cutie...

{Hallie}

and her equally as cute sister...

{Megan}

Can you believe it??? All the way from KenTuCKY!!!! The whole clan:

{Kathryn and Trevor}

{Hallie, Megan and Campbell}

{and little baby Davis}

Talk about the BEST SuRPrIse ever!!!!!

Not to mention they drove, yes that is right, they DROVE for 24 hours with 4 kids... Straight through! That is love and a serious desire to spend Christmas with family!!! We are so so happy they are here and cannot wait to spend the holidays with them!

We love you G family and are SO glad you made the drive!!

3 Weeks Old

Life is hard when you are only 3 weeks old!! There's lots of things I have to do everyday!
Tummy Time... not always my favorite time of the day!

Nap Time... I LOVE nap time, especially when my mom holds me the whole time:)

Bath Time... I Hate bath time except when I get to shower with my dad!

Then there is always picture time. Lots of pictures every day!

Cuddle Time... When dad gets home, its Cuddle Time!!


Well, I guess it's not so hard to be 3 weeks old after all!

Well, Jeff had his big debut last night on KSL channel 5 SportsBeat Sunday NFL edition (thanks to my dad). Everyone was SO nice and welcoming and it was a fun and memorable experience.
Shortly after we got there they put Jeff in a room with with the highlight and instructed him to start writing and of course we knew he would be up to the challenge.
Doesn't he just look like a natural.

After he wrote the highlight and practiced several times they typed it up for him and put it on the TelePrompter. It wasn't to much longer and he was getting all mic-ed up and ready to make his appearance. Jeff's parents and sister were there along with my parents. After the highlight they had us all come on behind Jeff for just a min and even got a little close up of Avery.

He did a GREAT job and just seemed like an old pro. I am sure that he made his uncle Alan proud. We will try to get an actual clip on the blog but that might not ever materialize, we will see what we can do.

Tune In


Several weeks ago my dad nominated Jeff for 'Fan Off the Street' on KSL channel 5. He sent a really nice email to them telling them what a huge sports fan Jeff is and low and behold they got a call wanting him to appear on the show.
SO... this Sunday at about 9:40pm Jeff will announce an NFL highlight as part of the Sunday night Sports Beat Show. You will have to TUNE IN and see how he does. I hear Avery might make an appearance too:)
