We have had tons of ice over the last two days. Dan was out in the backyard putting our prime rib on the trager to smoke and he heard some cracking. He came in and got us in time to see two huges branches come down. Everything seems to be ok. The one that dan is dragging off is a small one that fell off the side. We are not going near the big ones on the other side.

Let it SNOW!!
Thanksgiving Dodgeball!!!
We broke the bowling on Thanksgiving, tradition and decided to play dodgeball instead. We rented Schirle school gym and had 30-40 family and friends show up for the game. The Hemmert clan decided it would be fun to dress up in true dodgeball form. It was a ton of fun with only a few minor injuries. I guess that is all you can ask for.
Twilight Premier
Neysa, Kaley and I went to the premier. We got in line about 6:00pm and had hot chocolate and Baja Fresh. We brought an outdoor heater so we stayed nice and warm. They let us in the theatre about 10:30pm and the movie started at about 12:20am. We sat in a group of about 20, including Laura Peterson, Tiffany & Marge'. It was a blast.

Halloween Party
Nathan's Baptism
Nathan was baptised with his Friend Rustin on November 2nd. They were born on the same day, so it is fitting for them to be baptised on the same day. It was fun to have Dan's family here for the baptism. Even Dan's sister Lisa was able to come. We found out on October 30th that Dan was being put into the bishopric, so we have a very full weekend. It was great to have Dan's dad here to ordain him a high priest.

Carter cleans the kitchen!
I cleaned the kitchen and went upstairs to fold laundry. I kept hearing dishes hitting together in the kitchen. I wondered what Dan was doing...since he is never in the kitchen unless he is eating. So I went downstairs and found Carter unloading the dirty dishes out of the dishwasher and washing them. On his own he had filled up one side of the sink with soapy water and the other side with clean water. He had almost every dish out of the dishwasher and washed. He said he just wanted to help out. He had washed the whole pile of dishes behind him.
Carter's long story!
Carter walked Nathan to school the day after his nose injury and the school counselor asked him what happened to him. He said, "It's a long story" and walked away shaking his head. So here it is. I asked the kids to throw down their laundry from upstairs. Carter likes to run through the laundry while it is falling. Nathan dumped his basket out and Carter took off running. Neither one of them knew that the old cast from Nathan's leg was in the basket. It hit Carter right on the nose. He had a huge knot on the side of his nose and a pretty deep gash. Like he said...long story. He had to explain it about 10 times.
