Babies and Balls

After an anxious week full of contractions, our hopes were elevated many times. Sadly, as many times as we thought that "this is it!" the contractions stopped. Though this week seemed to last an eternity, the light at the end of the tunnel is nearing. We have an appointment to get induced sometime tomorrow. Hopefully the next post will have some brand new baby pics! Yipee!

In other news, yesterday was the first game of our indoor soccer season. I play on a co-ed team with the guys from work and their wives. It was an absolute blast. I was so out of shape that after only 3 minutes of playing time, I was ready to throw up. We lost our first game 9-6, but we showed a lot of promise. (and we played against the Mexican co-ed National team, so they were pretty good) I'm sure you guys will get further updates about our soccer team as the season progresses, and our domination commences.
In case you are wondering, "Bryce, I've known you for 27 years, and I didn't know you ever played soccer..." Well you are correct. I don't, er didn't. But never a better time to start eh?

Two days in a row of contractions. I think it is going to be really soon!

Christmas and New Years

What a great holiday! We really had a blast. Here are the images to prove it!

Just before christmas, we made a bunch of personalized cookies for our neighbors for our FHE activity. (including some "BYU" themed cookies for our misguided Ute neighbors)


One of the highlights was the time we spent up in Brekenridge Colorado. We got to stay in this amazing condo in exchange for listening to a condo presentation. The "presentation" ended up only being 5 minutes long. We told the presenter that we really weren't interested because my parents own lots of timeshares, so we don't need to buy because they give us time, so we got sent on our way! What a good deal!




Up in Breckenridge we went to a Childrens museum that was a blast! Lots of fun creative things to play with. Here is a picture of the little medical center in one corner of the museum.



We also did a little sledding.



On Christmas morning Sam finally got to open his "Mack" from the movie cars. He has been looking forward to this for months!



Marcia pulled a fast one and totally surprised me with Guitar Hero for the Wii. She told me it was for my dad when she bought it and I totally believed her. I also got DDR.



Sam and Grandma working on the Gingerbread house.



Marcia, along with the nurses from Thailand and Lebanon gathered to make a Christmas-ornament factory powered by foreign labor. It was fun to meet these girls and they just loved pampering Marcia when she was not feeling well.



Heroscape was a definite theme on the trip. We played it at least once a day. This is how we ushered in the new year, with a wild game of Heroscape. Way to take them out Sudema. Thanos ain't got nothing.



Right before we drove back to Utah, we went the Aquarium in denver. Dad works there as a volunteer diver. He was a crackup. He did back flips to show off, waved to all the kids and scared Sam and Jensen.

It's that time of year! Family Pictures!


FHE- Setting up the Christmas tree

It is Christmas time! Here are the pics from our FHE setting up the tree. Sam loved it, and thank goodness he is old enough this year to not destroy the ornaments. (last year we had to hide the tree behind a blockade so he couldn't get to it)
