Carsons Surgery

About a year ago Carson asked me what a marble was doing in his cheek? A little freaked out I felt around and sure enough there was a bump about the size of a marble that rolled around in there like one as well. We went to see Dr. Doug and he assured us it was just a lymph node harboring some infection from a recent sinus infection and it was nothing antibiotics couldn't handle. But it never shrunk and with each sinus infection it would get bigger. So after a few rounds of anti biotics we went to see the ENT and he felt it should be removed due to the fact it was actually becoming very noticable. So a quick out patient procedure, The mass was about an inch in size, But the Doctors are confident there will be no reocurring related problems. He was so nervous and brave, whenever the nurses would ask if he hurt he would say yes my hand hurts from this tube. Once the IV was removed he started to feel better. Carson is doing great and back to normal but can't wait to have his stiches removed on Thursday.

Week 3

Week 2

Project 365-Week 1

Some of you may know my love of scrapbooking, I am pretty good at documenting major events, Holiday's, vacations etc. A new challenge alot of people are trying is called Project 365, basically you take 1 picture every day. Just after 1 week I realized how many little things I do NOT document. So I am sharing with you my 2010 goal. Some weeks may just have a 1 picture of the week, but I am going to do my best to keep on this as a journal of the little things or big things going on in the lives of the Knight's. I will try to keep posting to give you a little glimpse of the crazy life we live but would not trade it for the world!

Happy 2010!!!

Hope You all have a fabulous 2010!! We are off to a good start. New Years Eve was spent with good friends and family. New Years Day was spent with good friends Sledding, The boys had a blast. How thankful we are for our friends and family and the memories they bring to our lives. Happy New Year!!!!

"Tis the Season!!!!!

A fabulous holiday season was had by all. My day was complete by the many hugs and thank you's I received telling me how happy my boys were.

Jaxon got his much wanted "Combat" ( and much more)

Mason was thrilled to finally have his own Playmobiles (among other things)

Carson got his own Hockey stick!!! (as well as other things)

Easton for most of the day wanted nothing to do with his gifts! Too many boxes and papers to explore, and he got a whole stocking full of Dum Dum suckers!!!!!

The Boy's (Jim, Jaxon and Carson) received "Air Soft Guns" which the name was quickly changed to "Air HARD Guns" by Jim after his first battle, realized that goggles were not quiet enough protection and resorted to his hockey helmet.

Christmas eve was spent at Grandma and Grandpa Knight's with dinner and gift's!!

Great Grandma and Grandpa joined us for the evening!!!

On the 23rd it was the Jones party at Grandma's a fun night with cousins and Santa!!!

Jaxon asked for a Quality Left Fielder for the Yankees (with a little coaxing from Jim) but he would settle for a Combat.

Carson asked for a Hockey stick and Legos.

Mason wants Playmobiles and Legos.

! Easton just liked that everyone was looking at him!

As tradition goes, Grandma gives everyone pajamas, the kids can't wait to change, then we take the picture in front of the tree. We sure did miss our cousins that could't make it.

Our season began with a trip to Temple Square to see the lights,

with the Pepiot's. We love and cherish the little time we have with them.

Thanks for spending Thanksgiving with us!

Our church did a really nice party "Return to Bethlehem". We got to dress as if we were going to Bethlehem and they did a program reinacting some scripture stories leading to Christ's birth.

Carson was asked to be Samuel the Laminite from the Book of Mormon. He was thrilled, that is one of his favorite stories from the scriptures.

Of course our gingerbread house building.

Mason in his first grade Christmas Program.

Carson has really taken up music this year. He joined the school choir, and LOVED it. He didn't even complain about having to be to school twice a week by 7:30.

He has also started piano and loves it too. He had his first recital and played Jingle Bells and did a great job!

We hope your season was as joyful as ours. My goal for 2010 is to be a better blogger so we will see how that goes!

Halloween Vacation!

We had an awesome Halloween! Jaxon was given the opportunity to play in a tournament in Las Vegas with The Bandits, so we decided to make a family vacation out of it and also go to LegoLand. Much to our surprise the boys were not at all upset to miss Trick-Or-Treating. We left Thursday and drove to Vegas stayed there until Sunday then drove to Carlsbad where we were about a mile from LegoLand and just a little further to some beautiful beaches and stayed there until Tuesday. A quick trip but a much needed one for all of us.

Easton Loved the sand at the beach. He just sat and would play forever then he would move on to a little seaweed and then into the water. He loved it, he did however figure out it wasn't as fun to eat!

LegoLand was amazing. behind the boys in this picture is downtown New York City all built out of Legos. Amazing! They also had the Daytona NASCAR track, The Las Vegas Strip, Washington D.C. and alot more. Amazing! Carsons dream in life is now to be a Master Lego Model builder at LegoLand. It was a great time.

Mason had fun. His favorite is just Lego guys. He was excited to bring some new ones home with him!

Carson loved this one they had it set up just like President Obama's Inauguration. Pretty cool!

Halloween- at the last minute the boys decided to bring costumes. They wore them at Jaxon's game. Carson Captain Rex, Mason a ninja, Easton a Lion and Jaxon so original a baseball player!

The Bandits did awesome! They came out of pool play 4-0. they played a team from Hawaii (who won the entire tournament) and lost 6-2 not bad because all the other teams lost by at least 10 to Hawaii, and if you can tell from the picture- They were some big boys! Way to go Bandits!

It was a fun time had by all. How we Love our time together and the fun memories that were created. Our boys are the BEST!!!
