A quick wrap-up of the last month

Well, it has been a long time since we posted anything. Since Christmas is fast approaching and my presents from both my parents and in-laws weigh quite heavily on how many cute pictures of their grandchildren I post, this post may have a somewhat selfish purpose.

This one if for Grandma Hancock. The cowgirl boots are still lookn' good.

Over Thanksgiving we took a few days and went to watch Weber State University (my younger brother is on the team). Weber was one of 16 teams that were in the Division-1AA playoffs, no BCS crap for D-1AA schools. Weber played William and Mary of Williamsburg, VA. The weather was gorgeous and the town was great. Unfortunately the game was disappointing. Weber got beat pretty handedly, but it was still great to see Joel in our neck of the woods.


This is my brother Joel holding Natalie after the game.

Last week our good friend Lindsey stopped by with a gingerbread house to decorate with Natalie. Natalie had a great time and in true Hancock fashion she didn't let the house sit still too long after Lindsey left. The house tasted as good as it looked. Thanks Lindsey! Natalie had a great time.

Even Krysta and Ryan got into the action.

Natalie and Ryan are growing up too quickly.

Natalie told me the other day. "Dad you're buggn' me out"
She is also into big words like fabulous and delicious thanks in part to the Fancy Nancy books.

Ryan is walking all over, as long as he is holding on to something. That kid is fearless and has a lot of fun showing off his new found skills. One of which is pulling Natalie's hair anytime she gets too close to his little paws.

Such cute pics!! Joel looked to be a good mood even though Weber State lost. It was probably because he was holding cute Natalie.

Ryan is getting so big. I can't wait to solidify my "favorite uncle" status with both Natalie and Ryan at Christmas.

Cute pictures - cute kids! Don't you think you'd get more sympathy (and perhaps even more gifts) if you posted pictures of the nasal polyps? Just a thought...

Really fun pictures. The kids all look happy and they are growing like little weeds. I hope Natalie remembered her, "Go Weber State!" yell, even though there wasn't much to cheer about. If your friend Lindsay is about 20 years old, I know a soon-to-be returned missionary that would be interested in such a pretty girl! Can't wait to see you guys.

You were so smart to post...otherwise there would have been no presents, for you that is.
