Todays date????

YES, I realize today's date is January 7th 2010.

YES, I realize my last post was on Nov. 24th 2009.

So I decided the best course of action was to pretend the month of Dec. never happened :) but then after more thought I knew I couldn't not post the great family pics & great laughs we had at all of the fun parties.

I decided this year to host my 1st annual Bah-humbug party! All who wanted were invited to attend, the only requirements were......

1. Wear sweat pants!

2. Bring your list of 10 things you hate about Christmas.

3. Bring a goodie to share :)

It ended up being soooo much fun! Everyone had their list ready and we all laughed so hard our stomachs hurt! I now know one of the best way's to beat the stress of the holidays is to poke a little fun & laugh at them!!!

This is one tradition I will definitely continue!

*we are working on Kris opening her eyes in pictures!

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!

Somthing you didn't know.

This man has NEVER...

walked past or stepped over a penny!

I love this man!

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!

Homecoming 2009

Homecoming has always been a fun tradition in

Grantsville and this year was no different!

I was going to list each day and all that happened but decided it would be waaaaaay too long. So I'm just going to sum it up.

A picture is worth a thousand words........

Everyday was a new surprise for Dev.

(Thanks Macie your the best!)

Pizza with D's #32 "Eat Em' up Cowboy's"

Cute signs and decorations all over his room!

Lots of balloons, confetti, crape paper, and "caged bears"

TWO yep that's two candy bar signs!

(16 year old football players need lots of energy!)

GO COWBOY'S

The parade was tons of fun!

Fan Fest was a blast!
Our cute Macie :)

The game didn't turn out the way we wanted but it was still an awesome week for the whole community.

I would like to say a great big .......

THANK YOU
