Grandma Toni came to visit last weekend and we all went to Temple Square. It was really nice and the last day to go before the million storms hit. If you look at the picture their is no snow:(
The boys loved it and I always enjoy this as one of my favorite Christmas activities. I do need to learn how to turn your pictures, so if anyone knows help me. You can see from the pictures below that I have not learned yet.


Family Outing to Temple Square

Kameron turns 40!!!! I know that I am in big trouble but we had a lot of fun for Kameron's birthday, besides Russ did most of the bad stuff. Russ is one of Kameron's clients and one of his good friends. He came to our house at 6:30 in the morning and had a wheel chair with all sorts of over the hill things. He was dressed in scrubs and on the back it said Geriatric Assistant. It was so funny. Russ then accompanied Kameron to all of his appointments that day and made him sit in the wheel chair. That evening I had arranged some of our friends to meet us at Mountain Mikes pizza where we had a great party. Thank you to all of our friends who attended. You mean a lot to us. I will post some more pictures from that day.

I tried to post one of the video side bars, but I got all four so if you click on the second one it is awesome!


This week it's all about Ridge. We went to his choir concert. It was all boys and the sang three songs. It was really cute to see 70 miserable 7th graders singing. They sounded great though.

Our neighborhood did a Luminary celebration on Saturday. We all had lighted bags along the side walk with picture boards of the Christmas story. At different stations people were singing, playing guitar, piano ect. At the end we had a live nativity. This is a picture of Ridge being Joseph for the live nativity.

expensive little devil!
OK, So I just started blogging and was worried that I would not have anything new and exciting to say. Then I was reminded that I have 4 boys and things will always come up. Tuesday Logan came down stairs and said that his ear hurt. I figured he had and ear infection and took him to the DR. After looking in his ear he said that their was no infection but he had something green in his ear. After about 20 minutes and many different tools he could still not get it out. His ear was bleeding a lot and needles to say Logan had had enough so he sent me to an ear nose and throat DR. He immediately said it would have to be surgically removed the next day. So now surgery is over all is well and the ears are clear of foreign objects.

The whole Cook gang.



OK, So everyone I know is blogging and I guess it's time I joined. I went to Idaho for Thanksgiving this weekend and all of my sister in laws are doing it. I'm a sucker for peer pressure!:) While we were in Idaho my mom went to a lot of effort to arrange a family photo. We all had the clothes and bathed and dressed all of the kids. No small fete their were 20 of us. We got there and the photographer took all of 15 minutes to do a group shop and 3 family breakouts. Needless to say they were not the best pictures. Thankfully Hilary is a pro and by the time she edited the whole thing we were all looking good. Thanks Hilary. We will be doing another picture in the spring. Thanksgiving was awesome. It is always nice to see the family and hang out. The cousins LOVE to play together and that's what it is all about. I especially enjoyed playing with all of the babies. Good times were had by all.
