Mason turned 5 this year. For his birthday he wanted to go to the football game. The next day we had a huge party for him at the Mayor's Park. We played baseball, and visited. Grandpa and Grandma Thornley, Alicia, Tiffiny, Tacie, Kaylee, Linlie, and Kim even drove all the way here for it.
Unlce Erik got married to a girl named Brianna. We went up to Hyrum for their wedding. We are so happy for them. On the way home we stopped at Scheels, which is a new store in Draper. It is awesome. They have a lot of fun things to do, and placed to take pictures, and even a ferris wheel!
Swayzie gets to come with me to school everyday for about a 1/2 hour. Until she goes with whoever is watching her that day. Either Alicia or Kristy take her. I've started watch Addy and Sky since TedAnn and Bruce left on their mission.
Poor Annie got into a Porcupine while duck hunting with Easton and Justin. Justin thought he would be funny and tell me it was a porcupine when he thought it was brush stickers. Turns out it was really a porcupine. She had at least 40 quills in her. They didn't seem to bother her though.
Halloween was crazy this year. Poor Mason had been so sick. He was having super bad stomach pains for about 3 weeks. It got really bad on Halloween, so Justin rushed him to the clinic while I got the kids ready. He ended up getting x-rays and blood work. He came and toughed it out for the truck-or-treat at the Elementary then went home and crashed. We never figured out what was causing all the problems.
Can't believe Miss Swayzie Kate is one! She seemed to turn into a toddler over night. She is in to everything and loves to make people laugh. You can see the mischief shining out of her eyes. She had an icecream party at Grandma's classroom with the cousins, and had a lot of fun being the center of attention.
Helping get ready for Thanksgiving Dinner. We had fun down at Kristy's house with all the cousins. We did Black Friday that night, and took Swayzie with. Justin only got hit in the head one time!
The Sunday after Thanksgiving we went and cut a Christmas Tree. It was so much fun walking and looking for one. We found a really pretty one too!
Swayzie loves being a mommy. She is constantly carrying a doll around and you'll see her share her binkie, bottle, or even wrap it up in a blanket/coat/dress. She love to pat their backs and give them a lot of kisses.
Easton and Mason joined the Emery All-Stars traveling wrestling team. They have gone to two tournament already. Mason had a wrestle a kid that only knew how to choke. He ended up with a big bruise across his neck from it. But they both did awesome!
Swayzie went in for her 6 month check up for her tubes. Everything looked great and they shouldn't fall out for another 6 months.
For Easton's 7th birthday he chose to go to another tournament. It was a lot of fun, and we are all loving wrestling. We went to Chuck-e-Cheese for lunch. Grandma and Grandpa Thornley, Kim, Erik, Brianna, Van, and Grandpa Vicki came along too. On the way home we stopped and went to the Festival Of Lights in Spanish Fork.
We kept telling Easton we had another present for him but couldn't take it into Chuck-e-Cheese. When we got home he opened this and was super happy. He is learning how to shoot it.
Mason had his last Pre-School Christmas program. He did a great job, and I could hear him singing all the songs. It's crazy to think he'll be in Kindergarten next year!
Christmas P.J.s on Christmas Eve. Easton got sick in the middle of the night, but was feeling better in the morning so he could open presents.
Swayzie loved the stuffed Giraffe that Aunt Dana and Uncle Tim sent! Plus she got a lot of dolls, and girly toys, shoes, and clothes!
Easton and Mason got headgear that they will need at an upcoming tournament. They also each got a 3ds. They have loved them!
We had the Thornley Christmas Party in Salt Lake. We went Ice Skating. It was a lot of fun and the boys really enjoyed it. We stayed in a hotel that had a water slide, and then went to Discovery Gateway and the City Creek Center. It was a fun weekend.
Swayzie loves her nap time, and lately will grab her blanket, climb up on the couch or lay on the floor and go to sleep.
2012 was a great year, but I am really looking forward to 2013. Our house will be started and finished, Easton will turn 8 and Mason will go to Kindergarten. We have been so blessed this year with everything. I am so thankful for my little family, and the joy they bring into my life daily. I so glad we have great jobs, that we love. Happy New Year!
