Thanksgiving and Kaya's Fifth Birthday

 Little miss Kaya turned five on Thanksgiving this year.
She asked for a DS.
We had to sit her down and let her know that if that is what she really wanted it was all she was going to get from us this year.

She said she understood..........
 Much to our relief, she did.
But much thanks to Amazon and their refurbished electronics department, we were able to get her two games and a purse carrying case for the price of a new DS.

 With all our plans for the day I made a big breakfast before, Flag Football with the Titan's team, visiting with my family for a while at my parents house, and then on to diner with my in-laws like every year.





 Kaya this early this year had asked for a Strawberry Shortcake cake.....Remembering I had one as a kid, I asked my Mom if she might still have it laying around.
Sure enough she did.

After working on her cake Wednesday, I need to find more detailed pics. 
So, I went to my old photo album, and there was the old pic I was after.
I also noticed that it was also my fifth birthday. Funny!

Wrestling 2011-12

 Dylen is wrestling again this season.
He received his first gold medal during his first tournament of the season at Clearfield.
His friend Dayton has been participating also and they are just loving it, and at our last one we found out he has another friend participating in another club.

 At his second tournament, Layton, he received sliver.

 In his latest tournament he received his first bronze for third place.
Weber High does not put them in groups of abilities. 
They are put together according to age and weight only.
No complaints, he learned a lot that day.
And I believe it's also a good lesson in learning that to be the best you have to practice and work hard.
Not only that, there is always someone out there better than you.










 We got to take a break for the holiday, but we get right back to it Monday.
