My Sweet Nephew

My sister Jess and her husband had their baby! His name is Easton. I just want to tell them congratulations and that I am so happy for them! I wish that I could go down and see him so bad. When I had the twins Jess came right up and dropped her kids off to family and came out to my house to help me everyday! I wish so bad I could do the same! It truly breaks my heart. I was planning to go with my mom, but we both decided that since I don't have anyone to take my kids while I was there, it might be kind of chaotic and stressful after just coming home with a new baby! Jess I love you so much and hope that everything is going good. Thanks for your help with the twins and taking Justice too. Give my sweet nephew a kiss for me. I didn't realize how hard it would be for me to not be there to see you and your cute family when you welcomed Easton into the world. Just know that I am thinking about you everyday and love and miss you all very much. You are a great mom and your kids are lucky to have you and Math as parents.

Pictures of the Boys

I had my sister Jen take some pictures of the boys! We went to the Skate Park for Justice's pictures and I think they turned out so good. He was a little distracted though because all he wanted to do was skate and play with Hayden and Bryson, but I think we got some really good ones!

We went a place in the middle of A.F. to take the babies. I think they turned out good also, they just did not want to cooperate, because it was close to nap time! But I think they are cute too.

Thank you Jen for taking there pictures! I think you do such a good job and I appreciate all the time you take to do it for us! If anyone needs a photographer, she does great! If these look a little fuzzy it is because I just copied them and pasted them in here, the real ones are much more crisp.

All Grown Up!

I took these pictures on Justice's first day of Pre-School! He was so excited to wear his new school clothes and wanted his picture taken! He looked so cute, and so grown up. I can't even believe that I have a kid in Pre-School! He goes twice a week and he loves it.

For a while he was so clingy to me I was worried he wouldn't go, but he did great and didn't even care when I dropped him off!

He could hardly wait until it was time to leave that morning! As you can tell from this picture.

Both days I have picked him up his teacher said that he has been really good! I miss him while he is gone, but I am so happy that he gets to go and meet new friends and learning new things!

His cousin Hayden is also in class and Justice thinks that is so cool! They are buddies!

The Farm at Thanksgiving Point

Me and Justice met our friends Jen and her son Ryker, and Nicole and her girls McKynlee and Baylie for lunch today at JCW's in Lehi. After lunch we headed over to The Farm at Thanksgiving Point. The kids had fun checking out all of the farm animals and of course the pony ride. We have tons of fun hanging out with these guys and can't wait to do something again!

All Caught Up

Ever since Talon and Cardon came home from the hospital, Avon with Welcome Baby has been visiting us once a month to check the babies progress. She comes to our house and weighs and measures them, and made sure they were doing what they should at the stage they were at. She always compared them at their adjusted age, which was their actual 40 week due date, which was Nov. 14. They were born on Oct. 14, she wanted to make sure they were at least doing what they should at their adjusted age, which was one month younger. They were always doing more that that, and she was always impressed. Yesterday was their last Welcome Baby appointment. Avon said that they are completely caught up where they should be and there was no reason for her to check them anymore. She and their pediatrician both say that just by looking at them, you would never even know that they were preemies. I am so glad that they are doing so well! I cannot believe that they will be one in October. Thank you Avon we had so much fun getting to know you and we will miss seeing you every month!

Fun Pictures of the Boys

I thought I would post some pictures of the boys so you could see how big they are all getting! I can't believe that Justice starts Pre-School next month. He is so excited and asks me almost everyday when it starts. It will be so good for him to go and interact with other kids his age. He told me the other day, Mom I need friends. It was so cute, because we just moved in with my parents and doesn't have friends in the neighborhood. Talon and Cardon are 10 months today! I can't even believe that. We had a coed softball game last night and I was thinking about what I was doing at this time last year and I was big and pregnant in the bleachers cheering for Brad. The twins crawl all over the place and pull up to anything possible. They have started to crawl up the stairs, which is super scary! I am so thankful for my 3 handsome sons and the joy they bring into my life!

5 YEAR ANNIVERSARY

Our 5 year Wedding Anniversary was on August 1st. We were able to have a little getaway, thanks to my parents watching the kids.

Yeah, I know this is a rare shot of me and Brad together! We went to Snowbird and stayed overnight. We had a good time together, and it was not long enough, but we made the best of a quick trip!

This is us riding the lift up to do the zip line and alpine slide. They were fun, but not quite the excitement we had hoped for! We needed something a little faster and longer, but it was still fun.

Here we are pulling up our little sleds to go down the alpine slide.

Here comes Brad hauling butt down the track! He was a regular old pro!LOL

We rode the Peruvian Chair Lift up the mountain next. It was really pretty and was a nice opportunity to just enjoy one anothers company. It was about a ten minute ride, and at the top there was a tunnel through the mountain that took you to the other side where you could see into American Fork Canyon. This is a picture of us after we went through the tunnel. Another rare shot:)

Well we headed back through the tunnel and there was some sweet music playing, I think it was a little old school Janet Jackson. Well as you can see we got a little goofy! There was no one else in the tunnel, so we let our true colors come out I guess! How embarrassing! Just kidding we were having a blast and laughing pretty hard.


Yep, Brad found the bed! It was a fold down one, we thought that was funny! We drove down the canyon later that night and went to dinner at The Olive Garden, wandered the mall, and went to The Dark Night. That morning we got up, checked out and went to the breakfast buffet, stuffed out guts and headed home. We had so much fun and can't wait to do something like this again!

I am so thankful to have a wonderful husband. Brad and I have been together for almost 9 years now, and I fall in love with him more and more everyday! He means the world to me and I don't know what I would do without him. He is truly my best friend. I am looking forward to spending many more years together! We were able to go to the temple with my sister Jodie and her husband Corey today. It was such a neat day. It was nice to be at the temple wit

h Brad and remember our special day 5 years ago! Congrats Jo and Corey, we are so happy for the decisions you have made in your lives

I love you Brad! Happy Anniversary!!
