We are still alive...promise...

Oh, hello! I just remembered I have a family blog! It's been over 6 months since I have last posted, and so much has been going on. I will give you the short version- we are all good!

On to more recent news: Kaylee got on the Principle's List for 2nd quarter, and we are so proud of her.

Me, Emma, and Twila went to the award ceremony and cheered for Kaylee.

A few weekends back I took the kids to the Food Truck Festival. It was nuts! There were so many people it was worse than Disneyland! But we managed to have fun and the kids played some games.

Kaylee and Crew went into these giant inflatable hamster balls and ran this fun little track. Emma was in there with them for the first few seconds until she started bouncing around like a pinball machine! I pulled her out, but she was pretty proud of herself and said that it was fun.

Kaylee was the only one tall enough to do the zip line, so she was all over that.

Crew went down all the big tall inflatable slides like a champ.

Emma wouldn't go down any slides, but she did go into the jump house and partied down in there.

Twila hung out with me for the most part and enjoyed the nice weather.
-Side note- Twila is HUGE! She weighed in at 17.8 pounds at her 6 month appointment. She's always smiling, and she even chuckles when you tickle her belly. She can get up on her hands and knees and rock back and forth, making slight forward motions. Yeah, we are all in trouble!!

Chris still works in Houston, but should be coming back by the end of February. We are all excited to have him back. We had a great Thanksgiving with family in Utah. A Merry Christmas with family in Arizona, and an exciting New Years with family in Utah again.

This year looks to be a good one for the Syphus Family!
