Everything in between!

Jess took to wrestling like a fish to water. He loved it and did so well. We have some awesome video of his tournament we'll have to post later. Jess is the one in the blue. This maybe one of the only benefits of having an older brother who pounds on you on a regular basis. YOUR TOUGHER THAN NAILS!

Here's Ethan! The one on top. This took some getting use to for Ethan. He would just let the kid up if he tried. We'd say," Why do you let them up?""because I don't want to make them cry." So sweet. I'm not quiet sure if he'll want to do it again next year!

The Blair's boy Erickson was on the boys team and Lisa brought Bennett to one of the matches and this is was poor Bennett thought of it. Erickson is even the one on top. 

We had 22 little people for Sicily's no. 5 birthday!!! We had to do centers so we could accommodate everyone. Oh what fun it is to have a wonderful neighborhood and friends!!

This was the pizza making center.

This was the finger nail painting center!

This was the crown making center!

Sis picked out this bike because it was big like Ryan's.

Cassi turned 13 on Nov. the 4th and Sicily's is on the 6th. Brent and I took Cassi out for dinner and shopping for her Birthday. 

Uncle John helping Jess carve his huge pumpkin!! We had so much fun at Grandma's soup and scoop! I didn't get any other pictures.

Mike and Melissa scaring the crap out of all the little kids. The gal on the ground moves!

Ethan the gangsta!

Sydney is the black witch!!!

Brent went in for knee surgery the first of October. He had a torn meniscus. He was a trooper and did great. His birthday was on the 2nd so kind of a downer birthday. I couldn't take him anywhere. He was healing well but complaining that his calf felt like he had a charley horse in it. When he went for his follow up visit the doctor did a ultra sound on it and he had a blood clot. Bad timing, he was suppose to be flying to Indonesia and Singapore the next week. I said heck no to that and after much stress he got another guy to go for him. All is well and Brent is back to playing basketball.  Pictures of ward members treats for him. 

Sydney turned 9 on October 25th and we had a rock star sleepover party! We did glamour shots after our makeovers and ate pizza and showed our stuff down our super model runway! 

This is the first year I have ever canned anything ever! So much easier than I had ever thought. Isn't the word canning just so intimidating ! Anyways Salsa it was. Jill gave me a wonderful recipe so I could use all the things we grow in our garden.

This is the first year in our 15 years of being married that we have had Christmas lights on our house. Jordan, Jess and Brent were all working together. Actually Brent was freaking out. He hates heights. All I could do is laugh at him which made him even more mad. Anyways we sent dad to walmart to get more lights while I got on the roof and hung lights with Jordan. Brent got us the lights we needed and made us a wonderful dinner. I love my Brenty!

TWILIGHT!!! TWILIGHT!!!!! and more TWILIGHT!!!!!

Oh what fun it is to go to Twilight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes in the Barclay home we have two Twilight freaks Cassi the ultimate and me very happy to jump on the band wagon. I spent the first 3 weeks in October reading every Twilight book.  I couldn't put them down. Cassi has read every book four times and knows everything there is to know about anything Twilight. 

   The movie was awesome. Grandma, Marcie, Patti, Mindy, Micki, Myself, Cassi and Kennedy all had a great time at the movie. Cassi and I got to the theater first at about ten to nine and the line was already out the doors and wrapping around the building. Girls, Girls, Girls everywhere!! and some brave guys too. I wanted to ask a couple of them if they were here on there own accord or if they were there because of a someone special who made them come? 

This is Cassi and I in the Twilight zone of our house. Cassi's room! Moments before we hopped in the car to head to American Fork!!!!

All of us further back in the line. Oh so exciting!

I'm so glad we went when we did check out everyone behind us! At least it was a nice night out!

The whole crew. We all got to sit together at the almost very top of the American Fork theater.

Marcie and I are the latest Twilight fans. We read all the book at about the same time.

Our sweet Edward. I forgot to take any pictures of Jacob.

After the movie a big thumbs up. I only had a few issues but over all was very pleased. Cassi loved it too. What a fun mother, mother daughter date!!! I can't wait to go again!

Cowboys, football and back to school WaHoo!!!!

Sicily's boyfriend as she calls him! (Ryan) is cowboy all the way! He asked if we had any cowboys songs and the ones we had didn't cut it. His favorite song of all time is WATCHIN' YOU by I don't remember.  Anyways we downloaded it for him and he and Sicily take turns performing for each other. One is on the stage while the rest are the audience on the couch. Usually the end of the skipping rope is the mic. You'll have to listen to the song he knows every word. I almost cried the first time he sang it for us! Alec is the back up guitar dude.

If you look close you can see the American Fork cheerleaders! HOLY different than Canada! Jordan's team lost there first two games and won the last two games! This game they didn't have there real jerseys so I don't remember what no. he is in this game. His real jersey no. is 30 He's been doing great! 

Jess's team this year is the steelers! They are wippin' up! They have only lost one game! Go Jess he's doing awesome!

Some of Sicily's shots at Jess's football game. I love the one of Brent's feet. 

Check out these bad boys. Have you ever seen zucchini so big in your life. Not ours the neighbors. 

I painted chalkboard paint in a band around the toy room. I loved Sicily's picture. She usually spells her name not backwards.
