View Jackson's Youtube video so he can win a contest!

Jon Schmidt is having a contest. Jackson posted a youtube video of himself playing Road Trip (a Jon Schmidt song) and if he gets the most views, he wins $100 and tickets to a Jon Schmidt concert. The contest started at the beginning of summer and ends Setpember 30th. Jackson just barely posted his video, so he only has 30 days to get views. So view as many times as you want to!

Jackson and Justin Playing the Piano

Jackson and Justin have been working hard and practicing the piano, so I just wanted to post their new songs. We are doing great, I just can't find the time to keep the blog updated, but I am going to try... I still enjoy reading all our family and friend's blogs.

Static Electricity

We took these funny pictures of Savannah while she was on the trampoline. Her hair was full of static electricity and if we held out a finger, she would come shock us, until a couple of the shocks were so big that it hurt her and then she refused to come near any of us!


I remembered I also had this picture of Jared on the trampoline, but short hair just doesn't get as wild!

Rubik's Cube

Jackson and Justin accomplished something this week that Jason and I were never able to do as kids (or as adults for that matter). They solved the Rubik's Cube!




As you can see in the picture, Jackson now wear's a white shirt and tie to church every week because he is a Deacon and gets to pass the sacrament. I can't believe my little boy is 12 years old!

I'm also posting pictures of Savannah at nap time and bath time. I love my babies when they are sound asleep, especially when they still let you hold and cuddle them.

Jared Singing (Or Not)

This is Jared's preschool Christmas program. He can be very stubborn when he makes up his mind. On the way to the program, he told me he was only going to sing one of the songs and that he wouldn't sing the other song. That is exactly what he did! He sang Jingle Bells louder than any of the other kids (even if he is a little behind on the chorus), and then he refused to sing Santa Claus is Coming to Town. He just stands there the entire song. I've been wondering if it's maybe because I sang that song the week before Christmas whenever the kids were being bad. He is the only boy in a preschool class of 5 girls, I guess some things are just too girly for him!

Savannah's First Word

This is Savannah's first word (besides babbling and saying Mama and Dada). We watch Diego's Dinosaur Rescue every morning in the car when we are taking kids to school (just ask the Callaways!), so that is how she learned to say Diego. We love how she makes an O with her lips! Sorry for being the annoying mom on the other side of the video camara... what we do to capture our kids doing cute things on video.

Halloween Weekend

We had a fun Halloween Weekend! We flew to Utah on Friday morning. We went straight to the flying field and Jackson got to fly Grandpa Stueck's new remote control airplane. Later that night we went trick or treating with cousins.



On Saturday, we went to ShayLeigh and Katelyn's baptisms. We then flew to California and went to Disneyland and California Adventure on Monday and Tuesday. Here are some of our favorite pictures (Jared was scared of Minnie Mouse!):







This is a cute video of Savannah giving her dad kisses and Jackson and Jason riding the Maliboomer (they were the only ones tall enough and brave enough to ride this ride!) There must be something wrong if each seat on the ride has a puke shield.
