New Car!!!


We have loved having our Dodge Caravan and would have kept it forever but sadly something was seriously wrong with it and we knew it was time to let it go and find us a new car :(
We had found the car for us but it was in Salt Lake so Saturday night Brandon caught a ride to salt lake with his parents to pick it up, but sadly when we got there we realized that the dealership selling it was definitely not being honest with us and thanks to car-fax we decided it was not going to be the car for us! Brandon at that point was going to have to catch a shuttle back to St. George so while he waited he looked around at other dealerships to see if they had any comparable deals. Shockingly we found the exact same car with fewer miles (and different color) for the same price! Yay! We felt good about the decision and went for it! We got everything in order and bought our first car!! Scary!!

Its a Honda Odyssey 2007, 50,000 miles, grayish blue color, and exactly what we wanted! It has so many luxury's its hard to understand :) It has a sunroof, automatic doors, stow-and-go, the works, and it will have a DVD player once we take it in to get installed (we didn't have time the day of the sale) but we could not be happier and the boys love it!! Its weird to think that we will have this car for the next ten years but i never thought i would be so paranoid about a car getting dirt! I hardly can handle them wearing there shoes but i am going to just have to get use to it possibly getting dirty :/  Anyways, we love it and are so excited for this big step we took!!

WHAT??

 Sometimes i look at our boys and am amazed at how funny they can be! I walked down stairs after putting the other two kids down for naps and i saw Coleton on the floor watching a cartoon like this?? What??
He also likes to watch cartoons upside down standing on his head while he is on the couch he can do it for quite a while??
 Brandon each night reads to the boys in the rocking chair and the other day i walked in on the boys like this...
 Coleton wanted to sit on Hayden (as if he were dad) and have him read him a story
 But of course Hayden's legs were having a hard time with the weight and Coleton had to read to himself?
Here are the boys practicing Coleton's line for the upcoming primary program! I am so excited i love the primary program and this will be the first year i have a kid in it!
We practiced and practiced his line and he was so ready to give it!  His line was "Jesus Christ is the Son of God" He walked up to the mic and said his line and then went over to his teacher, curled up on her lap, and FELL ASLEEP!! What??? No songs?? At least he stayed awake for his line! :)

Preschool!

 Since Coleton has a year before he starts kindergarten, it was time for him to get prepared! There was a joy school one of my close friends was putting together so i decided to put Coleton in it!
There are six families that are doing it and one of them has two kiddos in the right age group so seven kids each class! Its fun for the kids, they meet together every Tuesday and Friday from 9:30- 12:00.
 
Each family takes turns and is in charge of one week every six weeks! Its crazy when its at our house especially with Brooklyn and Hayden joining the group 
but on Fridays i watch Niah like i have for two years and i also watch a pair of four year old twins, Ava and Addi Zesiger so on my weeks i have 12 of them on Fridays! Yikes!
 Whole crazy group on letter I day!
 Coleton, Kylee Bell, Addi, Chanden, Gatlin
 We were Indians :)
 We made Insects!
 (Boys standing, Hayden and Chanden Wilcock)
 Niah, Coleton, and Gatlin Glazier,
Graycee Glazier, Ava, Addi, Summer Rowley, Kayla
Along with the Joy school we have him enrolled in an online preschool called UPSTART. I wasn't sure if it was going to work that well but i have been amazed at how much he learns and i definitely feel by the end of the program that he will be able to read like they say. He already is doing so much better in Letters, science, and math then i thought possible for only using it for three months! I am so excited for him to start school in a year but for now i will enjoy having him around with all his crazy friends :)

Brandons First Marathon!

 Brandon did it! He ran a marathon!


He decided to take it slow and steady so that he felt good when he crossed the finish line! Here he is one mile before he finished! His final time was 5hrs and 37 minutes! We are so proud of Brandon for all the training and work to get to this spot! Hes lookin' good :)
