SnowBall Dance



Each year, our little town has a "SnowBall" and it has been a tradition for us to take our family. This year, Tony took the 4 oldest kids while I stayed home with Brig to do stuff for my church calling (nice excuse, huh? I really spent most the night veggin'...). This year the theme had something to do with a Luau... They had surfer music, limbo, sailor hats, the works! Ever since Brooklyn & Brikenna were 4 years old, they've gone. They've danced in the middle of the dance floor with herds of their friends. Now that Bridger and Brielle are older, they love it, too. Mostly Brielle loves it when her daddy holds her and HE dances while she giggles! Bridger just runs around like a boy, knocking into people & then taking off... Here's a few of the pics from The SnowBall 2008!

Hey, I forgot about that fun little Montpelier tradition...the Snow Ball! Do you still have snow on the ground? Utah had a ton, Burley...not much! The picts are so dang cute of your family (not necessarily of the voluptuous babes though!)! Once again...if you lived closer, we could send the kids and hubbies to the Ball and we could do girlie things or something!

Looks like you all had some fun. Veggin is fun too. I tried getting Josh to go, but you know how well that worked out.

That's a neat tradition. It's great that the kids can go and have fun with their friends and with their daddy. Your kids are so cute and they look like they really know how to have a lot of fun.

By the way, we have an insane amount of snow here. Wally had to risk his life standing on top of our garage and carport trying to clear it off. I wouldn't let the kids go under the carport because it's old and I was afraid it was going to collapse on them. Now he's out having fun on his four wheeler plowing his sister's drivways.

Your comment on my blog made me laugh! I know It's kind of pathetic. I was having camera problems so once I got a cd of all my pictures I went wild.
We miss the snowball dance!!! that was always such a fun dance to go to. But from what I can remember it was mostly adults that attended. Do more kids attend now days? Do they still have the stake dances once a month?

Jared and Steph Gunn said...

ohh you booger! I was there and I missed you. YOur family looked like they were having a blast. Yes Brielle ate up the dances with here Daddy. Stuart and Shast were there, Holly and Jeff, Jen and Brad. You really missed out. Your beautiful face would have made it even more perfect. Guess what prize I won. A Bear Lake Realty T- Shirt. Ha ha. Your commin next year if I have to drag ya!!! love you.

Glad you got to relax at home! Does this mean you're pregnant?! I thought you always liked to go to this...am I wrong? It IS about time for someone in our family to be pregnant again, you know, and I keep waiting for someone to announce it! :)

Ruuddudes said...

WOAH THERE on the rumors, little sis! NO! Ruud promise! (My heart just stopped when I saw what you wrote. I think that really means YOU might be trying to tell me something... Am I right?!)

MikeG Family said...

No! Not pregnant here - George promise! Not trying to start any rumors, either...just guessing. And I'm only guessing because I think this is the first time since Tawnja was pregnant with Daniel 24 years ago that we haven't had someone pregnant! Craziness.

Ruuddudes said...

Unless Karmen.... Let's start a rumor!

val said...

I love it! You guys crack me up, and if I wasn't always on here so late at night I would be laughing really loud! Sounds good, Karmen's pregnant!

MikeG Family said...

Hee hee! I wonder if she even knows to look here and see these rumors we've started...

Ruuddudes said...

I doubt it... Maybe I'll go to her blog & give her a little warning... hee hee again! (I feel like an evil villain!)

Brenda Campbell Hansen said...

Hey, the Karmen pregnant thing sounds like a good rumor...I talked to Karmen a few weeks back on the phone and when I got off I told Travis that she was pregnant. He said she is? When's she due? And I said, well, she didn't TELL me she was, she just SOUNDED like it...he thinks I'm a Weehawr. (Don't know how to spell That one!)

Karmen said...

Oh, you guys are all so dang funny! I have tears (from LAUGHING, not from pregnancy emotionalness) reading what you guys wrote! Go ahead and start the rumor, just remember, it's just a "rumor". No truth to it, darn it!

Tracy Beckett said...

Nice rumor! Hmmm, but I do believe Karmen had the cramp thing going on when she was at my house last week...so I'm not buying in to the rumor! I love it, though! Maybe we can make it happen, Karmen, by just spreading rumors...

tawnja said...

Is THAT how it happens? I always wondered what caused babies to start growing in their mommies' tummies! (People must have been talking about Mama all the time!) Oh, Congratulations, Karmen and Brian! Can't wait to meet my new neice or nephew in 9 months! Have a nice night!
