Christmas was so fun this year. Thanks to everyone who sent gifts, money and love. Lots of thanks and love to family near and far this year

Temple Lights Night

We had so much fun tonight at the Temple Lights. Cody just wanted to run. He was able to point out a lot of colors-such as "blue in the tree"!

Today I had the day off, so me, Cody, Gavin, Sue, Jenny and Liz all went to the Phoenix Zoo

There was a fun kids' playground at the zoo. Cody could go up and down it all day!

This Koala is only at the zoo for a limited time. We're lucky we got to see one.

Lost Camping Photos

Geoff's mom found the camera I thought got lost. Here's pictures from our camping trip to Aker Lake in northern Arizona. We had a great time!

Halloween 2010

Halloween was so fun this year. Cody was dressed as a dinosaur. We went to Trunk or Treat with a Geoff's old church ward. We've been going there the past couple years. Cody had a great time. We were there with our friends Keith, Nicky and their son Gavin along with our babysitter Jennifer and her sister Liz. (they all belonged to Geoff's old church ward) Cody had a blast with glow sticks. He waved them around like they were light-sabers from

Star Wars
At this game Cody was throwing bean bags through the pumpkin holes.

Cody the Dinosaur

Mommy and Cody at our church ward's Fall Festival/Halloween Party

Cody was so cute in his fat dinosaur costume. He liked wearing it and he didn't mind the cute hat.

We missed Sunday morning General Conference because....

So this morning around 4:30 am I heard a sound like it's raining outside, only it sounded like it was raining inside! A pipe burst under our bathroom cabinet. I scrambled to get everything out from underneath and to get towels down because water was everywhere. Water was even leaking to the downstairs, so we moved everything away from our living room area. So we were without internet connection because we had to move out our computer stuff too. We called a plumber. They couldn't do anything when they got here because our water system is on a circut with others in our complex, our main water valve to our house was broken. So the water couldn't get turned off. We called the HOA. They sent a plumber who was able to take care of everything. He even called some drywall restoration people who came and started tearing up the wall, pealing off paint and cutting squares in the wall so they could get blowers inside to dry everything out. so now for the next 3 days we'll have what looks like a huge spider in our living room area. Now we are back on with our internet connection! How about this latest update from the Akers...What a way to start out the week!!
