School Halloween parties

Here's Aston with his preschool teacher, Mrs. Rogers. She is so cute. He loves her. You can see why.

Jaidyn's school has a parade and her classroom had a party.

Mom's got together and planned creative little activities. It was adorable.

Here's Jaidyn with a couple of her good friends she's made at school.

The ADORABLE singing group

We really have been so lucky to get into such a great ward when we moved from San Diego. Anyway, Maren Cook and Candice Drew, talented and lovely sisters, teach a singing group of about 20 girls and it is the cutest thing EVER. Seriously, between the Beach boys and church songs and just good ol' fashioned "School Days", it couldn't have been any cuter. You have to listen to them, I should have kept the video running for all of it instead of separate videos for each song, but I will only bore you with a few. I think they are so stinking cute and fun to watch.

Ward Halloween party

We went all out on our trunk this year for our trunk or treat . I even got a personal body guard to man it so the little punks didn't take too many treats. Look at what a great body guard he is, kept 3 kids under control all the while standing guard on the trunk THE WHOLE NIGHT.



What cute girls. The butterfly and the witches. Don't they just fit together?

Have you ever seen a cuter Woody and Super man ?

First day of school

Can you believe that hair? That is all natural. Not even a blow dryer. Just a tiny bit of product to help it shine (thanks to some helpful tips ).



She was surprisingly a little nervous. It was funny because she wasn't acting like her normal bubbly self. She kept looking at me with questioning eyes like "Should I go?" and "what should I do?" and "I'm not sure I want to do this". Of course, no tears or clinging to me, just a little nervous. She loved it when she came home though and had so much to tell me. She got the first "star" of the year from the music teacher. That was pretty exciting for her. Her teacher said that that was a big deal because this music teacher doesn't give out stars very often. So far so good :).

Best Friends

These two have such a bond. Sometimes they can't be in a room together, but most of the time, they can't stand to be away from each other. This was one such time when they decided they HAD to sit on the same chair for dinner 'because we love each other'. And they hugged each other just like this. How can you say no to that? It was so sweet.

4th of July

Ryan had the grand idea of making flag waffles for breakfast and couldn't stop thinking about it all night. When he woke up that morning, the first thing he said was "I can't quit thinking about those flag waffles." Then he got out of bed and headed straight for the grociery store to get the berries. They did turn out cute. And of course, he had to pick them up a little Fourth of July gift. So he got them goggles.

Handsome boy

I just put this in because he is so handsome in his church clothes.

Schnepps Farms Peach Festival

The kids have so much fun. We do the pumpkin festival in October and the Peach Festival in the spring. It's a little out of order, but that's okay, it was a fun day to remember.

Happy 3rd Birthday Aston and Clay

.







Aston is such a sweet boy and is just happy with anything, that sometimes he doesn't seem to get a lot of attention because he doesn't demand it. We decided that Aston needed to have a birthday party with friends and games and food and fun for the first time. He had a ball. His friend Clay just happens to have a birthday just days apart from Aston, so we combined and had a party for two birthday boys. It was such a fun day. Happy Birthday buddy!

Jaidyn's preschool group 2007-2008

Jaidyn's favorite thing to do

Jaidyn has always loved to look at books, but what better thing to do is there than read them to a doll that is the same size as you? Who needs friends?

One of my favorite things about babies

I find it so adorable when babies fall asleep where ever they are if they're tired. It's also very convenient. All you have to do is move them to their crib. But how cute is he???

Roan

He is so cute, I thought I'd show off his photo shoot.
