The Christmas Play...Tanner, Kamrin and Kinley

Tanner has a lot of fun in the Christmas variety show at the High School. He sang, danced and made us laugh with his funny faces and witty personality.

 

Tanner got to play Joseph in the Nativity Scene. Looks like Tanner has found his thing...he loves this stuff:)

Aiden is so much fun to watch on the basketball court. He has so much energy.
 Sometimes he forgets this is basketball and not football. :)

Aiden loves his Dad

 

He puts his whole heart into the game

Uncle Luke, Conner and Easton comes for Thanksgiving...

So fun to have Luke's family come for Thanksgiving. Trav, Aiden, Conner, Luke, Conner and Easten went to vegas their last night here. Aiden was sad to see the twins go...so thankful for the time we had with you all. Thanks for the yummy dinner and for cheering the boys on in their basketball games. The  Doyle cousins had fun running with eachother in the crowd ...Samson, Caleb and Tanner were good about cheering on the boy cousins who were playing.

 

November to December

The end of October we celebrated Aiden's 8th Birthday. We are waiting for Trav Jr. to turn 16 this week to baptize him - Aiden's brithday is always a big day since he was bron on Halloween. Love his 2nd grade teacher Mrs. Bosshardt...may favorite teacher ever. Aiden adores her!!Fun celebrating with the cousins and family. Aiden's favorite gift was the bear chair he bought with the giftcard Nana and Papa Dougherty sent from Walmart. We are excited to use the neat towel Nana Kae sent for his baptism - She does this for all the Dougherty Grands when they turn 8...love this tradition:)





Baby Quin was born November 8th - this baby boy is too precious for words. Kadin and Dallin are just the best parents and Grandma Kelli is in heaven:) yes, this makes me a Great Aunt:)

Aiden turns 8 on Halloween

Can't believe our baby is turning 8 tomorrow. I am a firm believer that the Lord sends us our children in the order they come for a reason:) Aiden has brought so much love and excitement to our home. Here are some things that I enjoy watching Aiden do and that make him unique:
He is such a hard worker - loves to mow the lawn...pay his tithing...wrestle with Tanner...make us laugh when we are suppose to be serious...loves science...enjoys attending his brothers games and knows all their teamates by number...he is good at packing his"own" suitcase when we go places. he is a happy boy and waves at people everywhere we go. Last week my parents called from the Phillipines. It was the first time we had talked since they left...Aiden wanted to talk to his grandpa - on the other end of the phone I could tell my dad was trying not to tear up and cry...I love these moments...maybe it was Sunday after the Children's Sacrament program when I heard that cute little voice singing those songs that tell us why we are here..where we are going and remember to make good choices and listen to the spirit :) I am so glad our Father in Heaven sent this special spirit to our home. I am so glad I get to be your mom and enjoy the monents this earthly life gives us:) Love ya, Bud!!

 

Here are a few pics of Aiden's football team this year. His team won the championship in their age group. He is so fun to watch. It has been a few years since we had a 2nd grader play football..he is competitive and sometimes tackles people when he is only suppose to pull their flag:)
