Hey There Folks!

I don't have any pictures of anything new and exciting, so this is more like a blog with no pictures :). First off, we have had our first basketball games these last two weekends. Last weekend we had the Hanna Tournament where we played Saratoga, Wright, and Lingle. We won all three games. Then this weekend we played North Gem and got whooped, and on Saturday we played Dubois and won. So that's the sports world in this house because for the first time in 8 years, we don't have a wrestler... crazy!!
This weekend has also been pretty sweet because on the 11th Sulli had his 19 birthday, Mylie turned 4 on the 12th, and Vi and Austin are having there 1 year anniversary today. So here's to you guys.
Sullivan is such a good brother. He is always smiling and he is always positive. Sullivan likes to eat my mom's food and play with his friends. He is a good brother and I love when he comes home... every weekend!
Mylie Jo is such a little cutie! She turned 4 yesterday and she didn't even turn into an ugly little boy. All during Thanksgiving break the boys (Sulli and Tyson) kept telling her that she would turn into a little ugly brother for Connor once she was 4 and she just wouldn't believe it. It was funny! But we are glad that she is still a little girl and cute as ever!
Violet, my wonderful sister is married to an Awesome man, Austin. We are so happy for them. I absolutely LOVE when they come and visit! Violet is so nice and she is really good at remembering people and knowing when someone needs her. And Austin is good at making me laugh and he is a nice teaser. They are awesome and we are glad that we have them!
And lastly, I am so excited for Christmas this year! Tonight we are starting candle-lighting, our families "12 Days of Christmas" tradition! And I love all of the Christmas movies that are on. My favorite that I've seen this year is probably "The Ultimate Gift". I LOVE that movie! If you haven't seen it, you should. Christmas is a great time of year! Merry Christmas!!

Great post. And sure enough, Mylie is STILL a girl--and a girly one, to boot! (A little pirate talk there.) Anyway, is the movie you're talking about that one with the will and the no-good kid that turns out pretty good in the end? If so, I love it, too!

Yeah, the one where the family is rich and he has to work and do service for his share of the money. It is my favorite one!

I love that movie, too! I listened to/watched it the other day while I did dishes and some packing. What a great movie!! Your post was great...even without pictures. Thanks for the 'shout-out' for our anniversary! I just realized what a terrible Aunt I am...we got to shopping in SLC and i totally forgot it was Mylie's birthday! Hopefully she doesn't remember and hold it against me for the rest of her life. I'm glad she's still a cute little girl, too. What mean uncles she has!

Great post Tessa! I'd say more but between the three comments here you've said it all and I'd just be repeating it all.
