The "Butch Brothers"

Jaxson and Austin had haircuts today. I keep telling them how handsome they both look. I was impressed by the way they both held so still! Mostly, I can't get over how grown-up Austin looks! I guess that comes with being 19 months old. Brothers and best friends
Hugs and Loves
Kisses for Austin
Families Forever!

Halloween 2007

This year's Halloween party was bigger, funnier and warmer than last year's party. We invited several neighbors over for soup and apple pie before the trick-or-treating began. This year, we had around 35 adults and kids from about 8 different families. The neighbors love the tradition, good food and adult fun. The kids love playing with each other. Here are just a few of the pictures we took this year.

Jaxson & Riley's Wedding

A few weeks ago, our neighbor doll, Riley, was over for a while to play. I was cooking in the kitchen, when suddenly the bride and groom appeared. Jaxson's excitement was obvious to have his dream girl and Riley just enjoyed the spotlight more than anything! A few minutes later, Taylor walked in, prepared to be married as well.

After-dinner dancing

On a cool, Sunday evening, we invited Grandma Barbie, Poppie, Cindy and Carson over for Swiss Raclette. After dinner, there was a lot of dancing. Enjoy!

Fun Aunt Cheri & Cousin Gina Marie!

One night, I took the kids over to the house to take some raspberry & peach cobbler to the painters (Cheri, Gina, Steve, Dave L. and Steve Johnston). Cheri turned up the music and danced with the kids. The kids laughed and had a great time!Gina Marie and Taylor dancing in the great room!

Let me just say how much we love Gina Marie! She is so loving and fun to be around. The kids have been talking about her ever since she left for home in California.



Conference Weekend with Cindy & Carson

WEEKEND AT CINDY & CARSON'S HOUSE
Since Dave was going to be working on the house all weekend, the kids and I took off for Cindy & Carson's home! Highlights included a yummy chinese dinner, lounging around listening to conference, cleaning up Jaxson's vomit at 1:3oam, making cupcakes for Cindy's birthday since I couldn't find an 8X11 cake pan to give her an appropriate cake and last, a quiet, peaceful ride back to Utah County as all of the kids slept on the way back!

Carson enjoying his gameboy

Everybody knows Jaxson's obsession with electronics. Lucky for him, Aunt Cindy had just purchased a new phone and let Jaxson pretty much have hers for the weekend. Jaxson was thrilled to say the least!

Sweet Little Austin!

Taylor on the phone with Daddy!

Jaxson- enjoying his own phone and games!

Carson was so sweet to share his gameboy with Jaxson. He even spent some time showing Jax how to play the games. Greatest cousin!

We let Cindy sleep in on her birthday. When she awoke, we had colored pictures for her and had some little posters on the wall wishing her a happy birthday. She loved it!
