Utah - Skiing, Golf and Basketball - Huh?

What other State can you go skiing at a premier ski resort with 12 inches of new powder and then the very next day play 18 holes of golf in 70 degree weather. Only in Utah. Mike went on his annual guys trip, which included skiing at SnowBird, golfing in St. George and then heading to Las Vegas to watch the Mountain West and WAC basketball tournaments. Mike's dream trip including all of his favorites (Skiing, Golf and Basketball).

Bring Your Kids to Work Day - Toys R Us

This day each year is like Christmas for our boys and Toys R Us makes it just that. They love it and enjoy building models out of legos and helping the Marketing team at TRU come up with new and innovative ideas.

Mom Can Do Everything (a post by Braxton, Porter & Hudson)

Our Mom is the best. She does just about everything. Aside from running us from ballgame to ballgame, keeping the house spotless, and putting up with us, here are a few highlights:

Haircuts - when called upon


Gourmet Meals



Building Forts



Baking cakes and making Dad look good for Scouts


Finding us cool hats for our magic shows


Making us heart-shaped pancakes on Valentines Day


Always on the sideline cheering us on


What a Princess - We love our Mom!

Happy New Year - 2011

New Years party was hosted by the Dents. Poor Dents had to put up with all of us... they did a great job as always and we all had a lot of fun.

Jungle Book - CAS style

The 5th Graders at Central Avenue put on the play Jungle Book. We were very impressed with the show, certainly some Broadway material. The kids had a lot of fun preparing for this and then performing.





In the end.... he gets the girl and they live happily ever after... The End:)

Benington, VT Family Tradition

Each year for the past several, we have spent a few days in beautiful Benington, VT for some skiing and family fun. We love it there and always look forward to that trip.

The long walk back up the hill - going down is much better:)

Sweet Innocent Hudsy!?


Fun with Uncle Chad, visiting from DC




Hudson built a little buddy and named him "Fred"

Not a fun sight when you are just starting shoveling duties....


AHHHH, much better - work is complete.. at least until the next 18 inches come.
