Here are some pictures after the clean up. The Rigby's used to have a row of trees up by the street and another random row in the middle of the lawn (someone was going to build on the top of the lot when they planted it). But now there is just a big open space.
Mike was pretty optimistic about the future saying that now they have a fresh start with the landscaping and they can do whatever they want. Caleb was also excited that now they'll have a bigger yard to play football on.
One of the trees took out a some of the fence and the basketball hoop.
It looks so different.
You can now see the house from the street. So weird.
We went with my sisters and their families to pick a tree and see the lights at the Layton Park.
He was perfectly happy but he kept sneaking his hand out to push down the blankets to get a better look at the lights.
This is the best picture I could get of Ashton he was all over the place trying to see everything.
Brookie all bundled up.
Caleb, Claire, Kim, and Hollie. Cute Caleb held Claire the whole time.
Sometimes we like to pretend that our nieces and nephews are our own kids. =)
The sweet little baby fell sleep
Back at Hollie's for hot chocolate when creeper Caleb jumped in the picture at the last second.
Caleb is such a good babysitter. I snuck the sleeping baby in there while Caleb was studying. He "watched" Boston like this for about 15 minutes while I cleaned up, before he even realized. =)
At the Rigby family dinner Caleb and I got to hold our newest Rigby niece Eleanor (or Ellie as Caleb calls her). She's super mello, and has a full head of hair like Ernie. =) So dang cute.
Kim brought Claire over so she could run to Kohls. She's kind of the perfect baby.
I can't decide which of these pictures is funnier. =)

Smiling or just gas? You decide.
Funny story. My friend Natalie Bird makes the honest-to-goodness BEST chocolate chip cookies ever! Momma Rigby has an amazing recipe too. So last Sunday I was making some cookies to take to my Visiting Teaching ladies, and Caleb came down to help and said "Natalie's cookies have changed my life." Haha, silly boy. Usually if his Momma didn't make it he won't like it, but he gave these a chance and now he's hooked. Me too, because they're delicious.
I'll send the recipe to anyone who wants it. Just be warned you'll never go back to your old recipe.

I love the pictures of Boston zipped up in your coat. You both look like natural parents.
I can't stop laughing at those pictures. You guys are all so cute. I totally want the recipe. You can never stop searching when it comes to good cookie recipes.
The house (yard) looks so different. How crazy. I love your pictures and adventures. You guys have so much fun! Claire is absolutely adorable, how fun that Kim let you keep her for a bit! <3 You and Caleb are the greatest.
Oh! I'm drooling just thinking about Natalie's cookies. They ARE the best! Will you email me her recipe? andreamahoney001@yahoo.com
Thanks love!! It looks like you and Caleb are doing good! Just the other day Daren was talking about how he misses church ball with the guys. I told him I miss sitting with the wives during church ball. I miss those days!!
