Neglect! Naughty me!

Well I guess you can say that I have been neglectful! I have not posted or updated on our blog in way too long! I guess not a lot has happened. Let me think about it for a minute or two.

September: School in session. Anna was Student of the Month. Yeah for her!

October: School, work and more work and more school. Halloween! I forgot about Halloween! We had a lot of fun! Watch out for some pictures to be coming some time in the near future, if not today!
It was the first year that we made it through our ward party without losing at least one of our children! It is usually Caleb the last few years, but before that, Anna had a tendency to wander off. One year, she was sampling the cakes hiding in the church!(She was 3 years old I think!)
Both Tyler and Anna started soccer. It was Tyler's 4Th year and Anna's 2nd. They both made great friends and had a great seasons! Also in October Tyler, Caleb, and Dad went on the Jones Family Deer Hunt. It was great to spend time with Great Grandpa Jones and other family. No deer leg to bring home to Mom this year.

November: The end of soccer season! Hurray! I was happy, because I got my Saturdays back! And my Tuesdays and Wednesdays!
Big month for Jody- New Moon was released to theaters! OK, I know that sounds really lame, but I love the books and movies and can't wait for the next one! I have already seen it twice and plan on going again. Any one want to go with me??????
Thanksgiving day was a great day for us. The kids got to spend time with both Grandparents! There was a lot of driving to and from and back again between Queen Creek, Mesa, and Scottsdale. Lots of yummy food, and lots of time with family and friends! Don't forget about the Cheshire Chase a 3.2 mile run and a 1 mile fun run put on by some friends in the Ward. Tyler and Dad did the 3.2 miles and beat last years time, while Anna, Caleb, and Mom did the 1 mile fun run.


December brings us to date! We are less than 2 weeks from Christmas! We are planning to go to California to be with my parents that week. We are excited, and so are the kids!

I guess that I was wrong about not a lot happening! I promise I will try to do better at updating!
