Cody's 33rd B-day

Happy Birthday Cody!!!!

We started the day with breakfast in bed and fishing. The kids had a lot of fun and we caught a few little fish.

Of course neither of them can look when the other is looking.

We sent Cody on a Treasure hunt to find his gifts. Taylyn helped me decided where to send him. I was so proud of her keeping everything a secret. I had his present a month and a half before his birthday and she keep them hidden under her bed and never told Cody. She teased him a lot but never gave it away.

First was the kitchen, then to her room, to our room, our shower, down the slide in the basement and finally to the garage where he found his gift. New sand wedges!!!!!

We had a great day together and are so glad to have him as our husband and father!!!!

Shon's Rock Crawl

We went to Shon's rock crawl competition in Tooele. The kids really enjoyed it but were absolutely filthy.

Taylyn loves hotels and asks us constantly if we can go stay in one, even if it's in Cedar. She gets her own bed for her and lucky and she always tucks him in bed so he stays nice and comfy!!!!
This is what they kids looked like at the rock crawl. We actually had to strip them done and then put them in the car, but boy did they have a blast!

We got back so late the first night and after baths we were all exhausted and starving so for the first time in our lives we ordered room service. We began eating and both kids were in bed just staring at us so we got them out of bed and ate every last bit of food on the tray.

This is Shon and Buzz's jeep during one of the courses.

Willie and Taylyn driving the golf cart. Jaxon and Tay were fighting over who drove that's why the sad face. Willie made her happy again by taking her for a long drive.

Sad face on this one too.

Going exploring!

Watching for Uncle Shon.

Labor Day in Vegas

We spent Labor Day Weekend in Las Vegas with Cody's cousins family.

The kids wanted to be outside all day long because the weather was so warm. They had a blast and pretty much had red faces the entire day.

She thought the jeep was about the coolest thing on earth and didn't get out of it very much.

She went and got a manicure and pedicure with Kari and Aunt Peggy. Yes you heard that right. She came home and told me she needed to do that again.

July Jamboree

Once again the kids had a blast at the July Jamboree.

Daddy and Jax kickin' back listening to Uncle Lance and his band play.

Two peas in a pod sharing their popcorn. They have a blast together.

I turned my back for one second and Jaxon decided the little piece was not enough so he grabbed the whole thing. Not sure what is going on in the next picture!!!

This is Taylyn's favorite part.

My Dad, the Dancer!

Linda was going through some of her mothers pictures and came across this picture. The bottom left is my handsome Dad. He was part of the SUU dance team while he was in school. Cody's grandma taught dance at the university and she loved my dad; she said that she took and football farmer and made him a dancer. What a small world.

More Outside Fun

We sure loved the front yard this summer and spent most evenings out there.

We were dog sitting and the kids had a blast with the dogs.

Just chillin'

Jax loves to throw rock and it drives Daddy crazy cause it makes empty spots.

Taylyn had the rope and the dogs so Jaxon had to have his dog and rope. It is so funny how much he has to be like her and do whatever she is doing.

You can't catch me!!!!!

Tony's Wedding

Cody's little brother got married on August 6th. Taylyn got to be the flower girl. Azita looked absolutely beautiful.

We had explained to Taylyn what she needed to do with the flowers. She walked all the way up the isle (which I didn't think she would do) but forgot the flowers. As she got to the front she basically just dropped the flowers in one spot. I was just impressed she did it without crying.

My kids love their Tony!

Taylyn sat with him during the dinner after the ceremony.

Jaxon dancing with Maile.

Regan and Taylyn dancing to a princess song.

This was taken before the wedding and she was a little nervous. That is the best smile I could get.

Here's my handsome Jax Man in his tie.
