Halloween!!

We had a great Halloween this year. The week before we went to Andrew's day care Halloween Party. We ate dinner, watched a magician, played at the park, and then went trunk-or-treating. Andrew had a lot of fun playing with his friends! We also went to our Ward Halloween Party. We had a chilli potluck and then went trunk-or-treating. Needless to say, even before Halloween Andrew had a ton of candy.


We had fun carving pumpkins this year. Andrew loved looking at the pumpkins, and calls all pumpkins, "pumpkin pie".

We had a family Halloween party at our house. We had dinner, played games, and then made carmel apples and decorated sugar cookies. Thanks everyone- it was a lot of fun!


On Halloween we went trick-or-treating in the neighborhood. Andrew had a lot of fun, but he mostly enjoyed being at home and handing out candy. At the end of the night he was quite proud of all of his candy!!

Disneyland

We took a family vacation to California last week. The first day we were there we went to the beach. Andrew had so much fun playing in the sand and the water. He also loved chasing the seagulls up and down the beach, which was so funny to watch. We spent a few days in Disneyland and Disney California Adventures. Andrew had so much fun meeting all of the Disney characters, going on all of the rides, and watching the parades and fireworks. We had so much fun watching Andrew's excitement over every little thing. He was pretty much running circles around us the entire time we were there! We had a lot of fun and it was great to spend time together. Andrew is already asking if we can to back to Disneyland and see Mickey's Castle!

Lake Powell

We spent last weekend in Lake Powell with Mom, Dad, Shelly,Samamtha and a few of Sam's friends. We had a great time out on the boat and on the wave runners! Andrew was in heaven playing in the sand and the water. We had a really great time!!

great day for......FISHING!!

We spent the weekend camping at Baker Reservoir. Andrew had so much fun fishing on Baker and Pine Valley Reservoir. The fish we caught were really small, but we had a good time. Andrew didn't care about the size, he just enjoyed fishing with his new McQueen fishing pole! We had a lot of fun exploring the area and spending time with our family.

The Little Man

One day Andrew is going to kill me for posting all of these pictures, but I couldn't resist. He is so funny lately and always smiling that big smile! He loves to play with his buddy Dakota, who lives next door to us. We sure love our little man!!

A Busy July!!

We have had such a busy month, and almost everywhere I went I seemed to have forgotten my camera!! We spent the 4th of July in Cedar City. Andrew had so much fun at the parade, carnival, and doing fireworks. We went to Grandma and Grandpa's for a picinic and Andrew went swimming. What FUN!


The second weekend in July we went to Pangutich to Candace (Curt's little sister) and Brent's wedding. It was so pretty and everything went really well.We spent the 24th of July in Panguitch. We went camping with Chanc and Danielle's family at Tropic Reservoir, and also went to my 10 year class reunion. Andrew had so much fun camping, riding the 4-wheeler, and hiking at Bryce Canyon. This last weekend in July Andrew, Mom, Shelly, and I went to Las Vegas and stayed at the Mandalay Bay. We went swimming at the Beach at Mandaly and Andrew LOVED it! We had fun touring the Strip and we also took Andrew to the Shark Reef Aquarium. As soon as we got home Andrew and I loaded up and headed to Panguitch to a family reunion. Curt had been in Salt Lake for meetings and so he met us in Panguitch. It was fun to see all of the family. Needless to say we are all travelled out and now looking forward to staying at home for a couple of weekends. We are lucky to live so close to our families and to be able to do all of these fun things. Now if any of you have pictures of any of this..........send them our way!!!!

a perfect day for........A BATH!!

One of Andrew's favorite things to do is to take a bath. It was so hot in St. George today that instead of going outside we went "swimming" in the bath tub!! Andrew had so much fun and I had a good time taking pictures of him. He is so much fun lately and he brings so much joy to our lives. I love how excited he gets over the simple things in life, like taking a bath!! I don't know what we ever did without our little guy!!
