Halloween as you all know is my favorite holiday!
This year Kristen and Scott were
the hosts of the best Halloween bash EVER! Colby the wounded solider.

Jeni definitely got the most laughs with
her pregnant beer belly & white trash wife!
WhooooHahahaaa........
Tucker loved being a vampire,
and had to do the voice for everyone!

Briggs was the cutest cheerleader ever,

and mom the baseball player.

The Anderson as the Queen of hearts, Mad Hatter, & Alice!

Jeff the Gangsta & his Playas!

Little Red Riding Hood & Granny Wolf.

When Briggs came home at 9:00 we put his GARBAGE SACK
on the scale it weighed in at just over 16 lbs!


It was a very.....
Happy Halloween!

The end of a season.

So October 30-31 marked the end of a season for the Kimbers.

FOOTBALL SEASON
Devon played his final game against Park City. It was freezing cold! They did not get a victory but played as a team and closed the gap by more than most expected. Devon didn't shed any tears, he just had excitement in his eyes , because next year he will be a SENIOR!

(Grantsville vs. Tooele)


Brennons game was on Halloween day. This game also did not have the outcome we would have wanted, but how can you be disappointed when you get to score the only touchdown for your team in your last little league game EVER! That's right next year Brennon will be a Freshman!

(nice catch Bren)

So this season has come to it's end but brings with it so much EXCITEMENT for the next!

*Devon don't let this whole Senior thing go to your head. Be nice to your brother!

What is wrong with me?
* wait please don't answer that!

Why haven't I been blogging? I love blogging! Have I been too busy with my family? No, more than usual. Have I run out of things to say? (I know your all laughing now!) No so what is it? I will be honest and place the blame exactly wear it lies........
I have always known Wal-mart was the devil but now I have to add another nemesis to my list. Ok this is the best way I can describe it...... Shopping for instance is always fun but when you shop with a credit card it seems even funner because your not paying for it right then instant gratification! Well that's how Facebook is like blogging only quicker and everybody is right there!
I have confessed my sins and now I will begin the 12 step program to recovery.
So please help me overcome this addiction by giving me affirmation of my awesome blogging!
*you know.....I'm clever, I'm interesting, and dog-gone-it people like my blog!

Toilets don't clean themselves?

You know that maybe it has been too long since youve scrubbed your toilets when........




The 4 year old walks in the bathroom after your done and says,

"Wow, mom our toilet is sparkly!"
*note to self..... clean toilets more often.

Ouch....

Brennon & Briggs have been going on adventures since they were old enough to get out of my sight. One of their favorite way's to spend a summer day is up to the "lil res" swimming and sliding down the moss covered culverts. That was the plan Aug. 13th. I took them up and dropped them off with instructions to walk home when they were done. Only an hour later Briggs called and said Brennon had cut his foot and I needed to come get him.
When I got there I could not believe the blood!
When he showed me his foot I could see the bone. We jumped in the car and raced home. I grabbed some dry clothes for him and left Briggs and Megan in charge. About the time I was to the church on Dufree st. I realized I didn't have enough gas to get to Tooele so I turned around and headed to Handy Corner, as I pulled up to the pump I realized I didn't have my planner! (no money) I headed back home. When I pulled up Briggs ran out with my planner and my fab sister said "my car has gas just take it" so off we go again. At this point I can't understand why Brennon is not screaming it HAS to hurt!
When we get to Tooele they took one look and sent us right on our way to Primary Children's.

The Dr.'s could not believe how calm Brennon was, and kept offering pain killers but he insisted he was fine. Until they tried to stitch the ligaments! (they explained that deep tissue "just doesn't numb") After what was many long hours with several specialist (also in this time frame much crying, screaming, sedatives and a mom that passed out.) they sewed the ligaments back together and stitched up Brennon's foot as best they could.
We arrived at PC at 6:00 p.m. and left at 5:00 a.m. the next morning.


Brennon was just a little excited that he got to go to the first day of school on crutches.

*that lasted about 5 min.

It was quite an experience and one neither of us wants to have EVER again!

I have two words for anyone considering culvert sliding....
