Thanksgiving 2010

We headed to Las Vegas for thanksgiving this year and fortunately for Teni and Alyia, they were able to see my parents a whole week earlier then expected. My sisters were in town the week before thanksgiving and decided to take Alyia and Teni back with them. Troy, Jordyn, and I met up with the kids the next week.

Dinner time is the best time!...We were lucky enough to have the traditional thanksgiving dinner ( turkey,ham,sweet potatoes, etc....) combined with the traditional Samoan dinner( sweet n sour meatballs, chop suey, oka, and rice) It was AWESOME!

Bingham wins championship game!

I think it is safe to say that my family LOVES sports! Football especially has always been a huge part of my family's life growing up and continues to be now. I started going to football games when I was barely in kindergarten and it has been non-stop from there. Daniel is my fifth brother to play high school ball and like the other four, will probably play in college too. I didn't like it very much back then but between all the little league, high school, college, and NFL games I've been to, I've definitely grown to appreciate it more.

This year we watched Daniel's football team(Bingham Miners) beat Davis in the championship game. It was so much fun to be there and to cheer Bingham on. Daniel did so well. He starts as Fullback and is one of just two Juniors to be in the starting lineup. What a huge accomplishment! We celebrated this victory by going out to dinner at Training Table. Way to go D!!!

Teni loves watching his uncle play and especially loves cheering him on.

Great job D!!!

Halloween 2010

I love this time of year! Halloween is most definitely one of my favorite holidays. I love to get my house spookified but most especially, I love to see all the funny and cool costumes that only come around this time of year.

Instead of carving pumpkins we decided to change it up a bit this year and paint them. It was a lot less messy and the pumpkins turned out really cute!

The day before Halloween we took a haunted boat ride down the Provo river. We saw many carved pumpkins on our ride and even had a pirate attack our boat. It was a lot of fun!

I decided this year to have a Halloween party at my house. We invited close family and friends. We ate a variety of delicious soups (clam chowder,chili,cheese and broccoli ) in bread bowls and had some very yummy cupcakes from Sweet Tooth Fairy Bakery. My favorites were the strawberry creme and oreo cupcakes, they were to die for!

The kids enjoyed a donut eating contest without the use of their hands. It was pretty hilarious to watch them play this.

This is the ugliest costume I've ever wore but I thought it was pretty hilarious. I stuffed it with a pillow but by the end of the night it got too hot and I had to get rid of it!

We all had so much fun and I can't wait to do this all over again!
