Family update of 2015

It's been quite awhile I know, I guess that's what happens s when you have 5 boys running around the house! Which I LOVE!!  I love being a mom of boys! Since I last wrote in April last year, we have completed the building of our new home in Hyde Park,

 Calvin turned 10,

And is playing the cello in orchestra 

 Ben turned 8, 

And he is rocking it in basketball and school! 

I turned 35, 

Oh baby! 35!!!

Henry and Charlie turned 2,

And are quite the little ness makers! 

Sometimes even double trouble who need time outs! ;) But they're so cute!! I let them get away with everything because of their cuteness!!! I can't help it!! 

 and Jeff turned 37!!!! 

We hosted an extended family Thanksgiving dinner (even grandma Rose came!)

 we hosted a family Christmas party, we ventured in the woods with a permit and went up Strawberry Canyon where we chopped down a 16 foot tall Christmas tree! 

And we hosted a New Years party in Mantua! We have had a fun and busy year!! 

 

Henry got stitches

And so did Jeff

You have to look closely, his hairy eyebrows cover them up!

Charlie had surgery on his toe, 

And Charlie and Henry had hydrosil surgery (like a hernia, but not as bad...fluid instead of intestines) 

They did so great! They thought the gowns were awesome! 

 

We visited Temple Square

Got our Christmas cards out in the nick of time

Hosted a cookie exchange and hot cocoa party, and so many more things!  It's been a great year!! Hello 2016!!! 

The boys all say that this year is going to be EPIC!!! So excited to write more about it!!! :))
