Happy Halloween!



It was so much fun dressing up all the kids in Star wars costumes. Nate was Boba Fett, Jace was a clone, Drew was Jengo Fett, and Sara was yoda, even though she was mistaken as a bunny on more than one occasion!

Motorcycle Gang


Grandpa Brox lets the kids sit on his Harley. Sara turned into a motorcycle mama, she didn't want to get off!

Travis and Melissa's Wedding


My brother Travis got married to Melissa, a sweet girl. She has a 5 yr. old little girl named Makenna, so Travis is a daddy and so my kids have a cousin on my side of the family! YEAH! It's about time. The wedding was beautiful. In the days leading up to the big day, the whole family was so busy putting everything together. It turned out to be a very nice wedding.





Elder Brox

My brother Tyler is getting ready to go on his mission to Morristown, NJ. He leaves next month before Thanksgiving, so we are so happy that we were able to be with him as he went through the Las Vegas Temple for the first time. It was awesome, what a privelage it was to be there! It was truly the highlight of our whole trip! He is so excited to be of service to the Lord as he finds those that are seeking Him. He has an amazing testimony of the restored church; I know he will be a wonderful missionary.

Street Sign

Boulder City has signs posted up and down Veteran's Memorial Drive, to honor those from the town that have gone on to serve in the Armed Forces. It's a very nice gesture, but in Andy's case his sign is inaccurate. If he were in the army, he would have undoubtably been deployed.

Little Cuz


Sara and her cousin Lindee had such a great time together. They played non-stop with babies and little strollers. They were inseparable! This was such a new experience for Sara, there are no little girls her age to play with.



The big girl cousins devoted much attention to her as well, and Sara couldn't get enough! This is what she looked like after a "session" with big cuz Bayden!


Hook

Hook is the coolest cat. If I were to ever get a cat again (the chances just don't look good after Priscilla Cat-Head, she should have been called Priscilla #$@%!-Head) it would have to be just like Hook. He was so sweet to the little ones, and he just LOOKS awesome! I am not a cat person though. My kids love cats, I have no idea where they get it. My sister-in-law claims that farm cats are the best. Maybe someday...

Nater's Birthday

Nate was able to celebrate his 7th birthday with his cousins. He had looked forward to it for months! There was lots of goodies, and we had an awesome dance contest! Aunt Jen and I got our groove on with the rest of the kids...its a good thing my camera went dead right after these pictures!



Nate got a webkinz for his birthday. He had wanted one ever since Jace got his frog. It seems the whole house is crazy about webkinz now...

Big Boy Bleu


Andy's nephew Bleu is a 14 yr. old freshman! He's HUGE! Be sure to look for him in ten years when he is playing in the NFL!

Monkeys

Monkey'n around with crazy cousins! Sara and the boys playing with Bayden and best friend Jayden, Briggs and Boen. We had to find something for little ones to do while at a Boulder City High School football game (in Vegas).

Bayden, Sara, and Jayden

Sweet Sunshine

"Little girls are the nicest things that happen to people. They are born with a little bit of angelshine about them, and though it wears thin sometimes there is always enough left to lasso your heart—even when they are sitting in the mud, or crying temperamental tears, or parading up the street in mother’s best clothes." -Alan Beck







Viva Las Vegas!

We flew to Las Vegas for my brother's wedding. Nate is the only one who remembers ever flying, so this was quite the experience for the other kids. There was some definite anxiety on the take-off and landing, but other than that the trip went very well. Getting from the car to check-in with four kids, luggage, and car seats was quite the undertaking. We got there just shy of two hours before our flight and made it just in time to board! Whew! It was crazy...
