December
Eliason family reunion... Pancakes and Pajamas at the school. Mom took Sami and Trey to that since I was at a volleyball tournament and Kenny was a training with Elder Anderson. Trey sang in the choir and I was glad that mom got to hear him since she'll miss his choir concert when she has knee surgery. Kayli's team won the second volleyball tournament! Ward ...
Halloween and November
The Pumpkin Patch is a tradition for us! We always make sure we get a picture of the 4 kids in the tractor. They have really grown up! We went on our Halloween Date Night with the McCormicks and Cahills which is also a tradition for us. Every year we think there's nothing left to do and also, how do we beat Boston from 2 years ago, but then McCormicks found something. It ...
Busy October
The Golden Knights are back and we love it! I couldn't help but snap pics of the ceremony before the first game where they presented the Knights with the Stanley Cup Champs banner at T-Mobile Arena where they play... it's just so cool to me! We currently have 5 sports teams between the 4 kids. Sami is playing soccer and I coach her team. Trey is playing flag football and ...

July 2024
We didn't do a ton on the 4th of July. It was so hot we didn't want to do any parades. Kenny took the kids swimming and then we hung out on our street. Jessica and Andrew have put on a good fireworks show for years and so we always look forward to doing our block party and fireworks every year now. Kelli and the kids came to town so we spent the next couple of days playing ...
VGK Wins the Stanley Cup! and June Adventures
Our Vegas Golden Knights hockey team won the Stanley Cup! We were soooo excited! We love this team so much and had been watching a lot of hockey during all the playoffs. We would have watch parties and were so excited when our team made it to the Finals. When they won the series in 5 and beat the other team 9-3 (wow!) we were just so happy. All of Vegas was so happy. There have ...
End of School Year/Beginning of Summer
May might be busier than December! All the sports and activities are still happening along with all of the end-of-the-year school activities. I had a good Mother's Day. The kids made me breakfast and dinner and we watched a Golden Knights playoff game-which is one of my favorite things to do with them! The youth in the ward had another hard hike in preparation for ...
April/May
Kayli went to Universal Studios for her 6th grade field trip. She had the best time! They left at 2:00 in the morning one night and got home at midnight the next night. She was a tired girl after that! It was fun getting texts and pictures from her all day. The day she got home was our youth temple trek. They walked 15 miles across Las Vegas to the temple. Kayli was soooo ...
