Tatum Turns "Sweet 16"

Tatum had such a fun time at her sweet 16 birthday party.  She shared her party with her girlfriend Myla.  They had a glow in the dark, neon party.  It was super fun with a DJ, swimming, volleyball, and even the Waffle Truck made an appearance.

The Dawes Explore the Grand Canyon

During our Thanksgiving weekend, we ventured up to the Grand Canyon.  It was the first time our kids had seen it.  Being from Arizona, we figured it was a must!  Our kids are finally old enough to not have to worry about them falling in.  The views were breathtaking.  We wanted to see the sunset on the canyon and the sunrise.  It did not disappoint!  It is truly one of God's masterpieces!

Thanksgiving in Sedona

We spent a nice quiet Thanksgiving in Sedona with my mom and dad.  We enjoyed hanging out with the kids playing football, playing near Oak Creek Canyon and of course eating a huge Turkey dinner.

Trent turns 13

Watch out, we have another teenager in the Dawe House!  Trent celebrated his 13th birthday by taking his buddies to a Cardinals game.  They got to sit in the Annexus Suite so it was tons of fun!  Happy Birthday to such a stud!  We love you Trent!

Trevin enjoys fall in New England

During fall break, Trevin talked Nana Jan into flying him to visit New England.  How can you resist Trevin?  He had a blast visiting his New England cousins and his Aunt Robbin and Uncle Billy.  He went apple picking, and he even got to go to the first post season Red Sox game!  They of course went on to win the World Series!  Trevin had a blast!  He never even got homesick!

Fall Break 2013

We didn't do too much during Fall Break...so we decided to take a quick road trip to California.  We stopped at Newport Beach to catch some waves for a few hours.  The weather was perfect!  Then the next day we met some friends and went to Knott's Berry Farm. Tatum got to hang out with her cheer friends Tierney and Kaylee.  It was a fun day!  Trent even got to bring his bestie Porter Cook!  It was a quick trip but worth it!

Perry Cheerleader

It's been so much fun watching Tatum cheer for Perry High School.  This year she is on the Varsity team so Friday Nights have been a party!  Tatum is such a cute Puma!
