Tyler and Hollie have been taking "Red" photos since he was born. Now we have a new addition to the "Red" group, Chloe. She's 8 weeks old and doing one of her 3 favorite things.
Dave and Lauren came over to visit Christmas evening.

This year marks the First Annual Fattie Contest. Each person could make a fattie and add their own secret ingredients. Everyone got 2 votes. Taking the runner up spot was myself. I stuffed mine with basil, mozzarella, and tomato. Tyler won the competition with his 3 meat combo fattie. He stuffed it with bacon, ham, and bbq chicken and then smothered the meat all in Deadeye. So a big thanks go out to Deadeye for making this win possible. Tyler gets to take home the traveling trophy...until next competition.

We will remember this Christmas forever. We got to eat alot of good food, we got some good "air" sledding, and most important we got to hang out with the most wonderful people in the world... our family.

Tonight for family night we decided it didn't matter what we did just as long as we spent time together. (I'll admit I'm too old for some of his music and he's too young for mine.) These past couple of weeks we have been very blessed to be the recipients from many generous people's giving. Thank you to those who sent kind words by phone, email, and cards. Thank you to those who gave such generous gifts. We are very fortunate to have you in our lives not just at Christmas time but everyday. Our wish for everyone this holiday is to keep in mind "The Reason for the Season" and remember the best gift you can give anyone is the gift of yourself.

We Love You,

Brigett and Tyler

Today is National "Hug a Ginger Day." So take a minute to hug your favorite red head. Of course, Tyler got plenty of hugs today.

Tyler is one of the teams co-captains. Here he's meeting the Newell co-captains and getting some instructions at the beginning of the game from the officials.

Tonight St. Mary's held their PreK- 8th grade Christmas concert. The 7th/8th grade choir started out the evening singing two songs, "Noel, Noel" and "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas". At the end of the concert all the kids gathered in a big circle aound the audience and sang two more songs, "Silent Night" and "We Wish You a Merry Christmas". It was a great evening of remembering the "Reason for the Season".

Tyler had another stellar performance this afternoon. He did an excellent job of looking down the floor and making good passes. When his teammates weren't open, Tyler drove to the basket for a well driven layup. He even took a hard foul for an old fashioned 3 point play.

Last night Tyler had a basketball game in Sanborn. Even though the score shows a loss Tyler played phenomenal. He had a great night of good ball handling, good passes to the post, and great drives to the basket.

Tonight, we had game night. We played 2 games of cards, King's Corner and Go Fish, which I won both of. Then as the above picture shows Tyler picked running an obstacle course for the grand finale. He of course won with a time of 11.11 sec.

For Thanksgiving Tyler and I went to Colorado to meet his cousin, Chloe. We had a wonderful time in Denver an enjoyed being with our family.
Before we left for Denver Tyler spent some time shooting clay pigeons with his early Christmas present, a 20 gauge, from Rich and Andrea. Above, he's shooting Grandpa's new present, a 12 gauge Benelli. The video below is of Tyler actually shooting a clay pigeon.
