November 2009

November brought Thanksgiving. We stayed home this year for Thanksgiving and had Grandpa and Grandma Nichol over. We ate great food and played games after. It was really fun.

October

Brennan turned 19!

We celebrated Brennan's birthday by

going out to dinner at Ruby River Steakhouse.

It was just Kevin, Brennan, Rylee and I because

Tayler was on a date for the Saydi Hawkins Dance.

September

September brought Brennan's Mission Call!!! He was called to the

Culiacan, Mexico Mission. He leaves for the MTC on January 13th.

Some of Brennan's friends came over to watch while he opened his

mission call. It was such an exciting time.

August

We played in a soccer tournament in mid August. We took 3rd place! We should have won it. The girls played so well.

August brought the start of the High School Soccer Season and of course

the start of the new school year. Hunter did quite well this year and Rylee won the starting goalie spot on the Varsity Team! Then she had a season ending injury. She was kicked square in the head in the Skyline game and received a very bad concussion.

July

Well as you can see I have not kept the Blog up very well. I will try to do a quick catch up and will try to keep it up from now on. With Brennan going away I want everyone to be able to keep updated on how he is doing.

In July we went to Kansas to visit Grandma and Grandpa John. Brennan was going to school so he was unable to g0 with us. He stayed home and took care of the animals. We went to the zoo while we were there and we also went mini golfing down by the river.

Brennan Graduates High School and Seminary

We went to Brennan's High School Graduation last Friday. I can't believe he is finally graduating. He graduated from Seminary on Sunday and then High School on Friday. He graduated with Honors and will be finishing up his Associates Degree this summer before leaving on his mission.

Rylee Graduates Jr. High

Rylee graduated from Jr. High School. She earned the Presidential Award for academics and citizenship. She also earned the Kiowana's Leadership Award and The Dance Award for going above and behond. I can't believe my baby is going to High School!!!
