Basketball Game Etiquette


You can tell they have been to a few games! Tyden now puts his other arm behind his back during the national anthem because "that is how mom's players do it." He knows almost my whole team, first name and last. It is incredible what he remembers when we come home at night. A few weeks ago, he said "Mommy watch, I shoot layups just like Brittany!" (Brittany is a player on my team who worked at Cobber Kids and Tyden has a crush on her!) :) He ran towards the basket, put his right leg up and shot an underhand layup with both hands. Although he didn't dribble and flung it up with both hands, it is a start! (this picture is from my sister's blog so I am not sure if you can enlarge it)

The best part about every game is when the buzzer sounds I have 3 little bodies running on to the court to give me a hug. I guess winning and losing isn't everything!

Another common occurrence


This is also a common activity when Bryant is with all 3 kids! They love to tackle and wrestle with him. I actually think he enjoys it just as much!

Christmas in Moorhead











After we got home from Montevideo, we had Christmas with my side of the family. The kids were excited to play together. I got them rugby sweaters from Children's Place and Tyden and Austin never sit so nicely together so it was definitely worth taking a picture!

A common occurrence


It is frequent that Uncle Todd is eating some sort of ice cream treat. It is now also common that he has a little buddy right there to help him eat his ice cream treats! :)

My new toys!







Tyden was all business when opening his presents. As you can see he got a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, a Vikings football, and Candy Land (and much more)! :)

Christmas in Monte!











We spent Christmas Eve and Christmas Day in Montevideo with Bryant's family. It was a great time! Tyden was worn out by the time we left. His Uncle's kept him busy! :)
Tyden got a new dress coat and hat from Uncle Darin and "Uncle" Keri (as Tyden calls her).
