November Happenings

November was a little bit calmer than October, but we still had some busy weekends. One weekend, Mom and Dax went to Mesquite again for a baseball tournament. They had a whole afternoon free, so they decided to head down and see Tiff and her family again. Dax and Ben are best buddies, so it was fun for them to have some cousin time. Mom always loves seeing the kids and her sister. Dax played well in the tournament and his team made it to the championship, but they ended up losing in the final game. Dad, Mark, and Seth had a fun weekend at home relaxing, and also going to a new park for the website. Dad took great photos and videos, and the boys had fun checking out the new Draper park.

It was warmer in Mesquite, but still chilly.

We played some Smash Bros and Turtles with the Pooles.

Cousin time!

Ben did not want Dax to leave.

The team had a lot of fun this tournament.

We have a matching trophy at home!

Mark and Seth were good website workers.

These electronic games at parks are so fun.

This new park is a winner!

The following weekend Mom got to fly to Las Vegas for Tiffany's Birthday. Jonny flew the sisters down (except Stephanie who just had a baby), and we spent the day having fun with Tiff. We ate lunch together, shopped a little bit, and then that evening Jonny made a fancy dinner that we enjoyed with some of Tiffany's friends while he took the kids out to eat. We ended the night by playing games. Mom got a little bit of niece and nephew time in, too, which is her favorite. While she was gone for the day, Dad and the boys went to the BYU Game. Although it was during the day, it was freezing. The boys weren't quite as prepared as they should be without Mom there, so they froze. BYU won, but they left a little early, which isn't an Ockey thing to do. But they were very grateful to be in the car with the heater on.

Mom hasn't flown solo in over 20 years.

It was fun to be with sisters. We missed Stephanie.

Ben is so fun! We played together a lot!

Mom took a selfie in the car. Check out the boys selfie down below.

Dad was the only one who came prepared for the game.

They look happy, but they are freezing!

BYU had a big up and down season.

Boys' selfie. So happy to be in the car with a heater.

The following weekend was Thanksgiving, but we will share about that in the next post. Here are a few other fun things that happened in November.

We attended a Home Depot workshop. We hadn't been in awhile.

These napkin holders were so cute.

Dad had an online training, so he worked from home. We went to lunch!
 

The pizza and pumpkin sticks were delicious at Via 313.

SO MANY pics of Seth on my phone!

Lehi won another football championship! This was the only pic Mark took,

The LeBarons were in town for a wedding, so we saw them for a few days.

Seth and Dax competed and did so well in Federation.

We tried a new adventure in Payson. It was fun!

Red Nose Ranch had a horse Rudolph.

We like trying new adventures as a family.

Dax hopped in on this Seth selfie.
