"Guess who's growin' up so tall.... My brother and I."

"Holy Batman!?"

We went to the kids read fair down at the Gateway with the hopes of seeing some superheros. Well we only got to see Batman. By the time we got there they were starting to close down and we caught Batman just as he was leaving. Kadon was so excited Tye wasn't too sure. But as long as I was holding him he was just fine. {Isn't Tye's face so priceless!!! Makes me laugh every time I see it.}



Take Me Out To The Ball Game!

The boys enjoying watching the game.
Tye being silly with Mommy.
Family Photo!!!
Daddy teaching the boys about the finer things in life.
We love Baseball in this house! It is America's sport and also our family's sport. Nothing like takin' in a game, eating hot dogs, nachos and cotton candy. Oh and I can't forget the dippin' dots!


"Pider-Man"

The boys got to meet their favorite superhero!



FHE

We went up 4wheeling for Family Home evening. Took up dinner with us and drove up to the meadow then let the boys loose on the wheel.


This is how I feel most days.... but won't have it any other way!

Big Boy Bed!!!!




I think these speak for themselves.


I think these speak for themselves.

Cousins

Tye and his cousin "LuLu" {Lucy}. They love each other. whenever they are around each other they are never apart. As you can see LuLu has her leg draped over Tye's and their heads are close together. Cousin love.

{HEART}

What can I say....My boys are pretty HANDSOME!!!! I absolutely love these pics. They truly captured each of the boys personalities. And I have to say the ones of them together make my heart burst. You can see how much they love each other and what they mean to each other.

Like Father, Like Son.....

These 2 guys are so similar. They have the same sense of humor, have all the same phrases, love hotdogs, think there is no better place than outside on a bike, think that life revolves around BYU and Baseball and the list goes on. I walked in to the living room one night and this is what I found..... Now I can add to the list that even in their sleep they mimic each other.

Guess who is binky free???? This little dude!!!
Yay, little buddy!

Mommy's Helpers....

I think this about explains it all...... And what you can't see is the mess they made when they "helped" me with the laundry by dumping their dirty clothes on the floors of their rooms. Couldn't get made at them for that. After all they were just "helping" me by reminding me to do laundry. Love these 2 boys!!

Scripture Power

Kadon loves to read the scriptures and will always remind us or encourage us when we forget. What an example he is to us. Now that he is starting to read he likes to read in the Book of Mormon at night to himself. This is a common finding when I get up to turn out the lights.

Happy 2nd Birthday Tyler!




Can't believe our little guy is 2 years old! Time sure flies when you are having fun! Tyler is such a sweet boy. When you look in his eyes you see wisdom beyond the ages. He has a desire to learn and will keep trying until he gets it. He NEVER gives up on himself. I hope that through life he will continue to have that same confidence in himself. He is a very smart boy. He sometimes struggles with things but can and WILL figure out a way around it. Tye's smile lights up a room. His eyes shine with such love and faith that it truly is humbling to be his mother. Tyler has taught me so much. I love him so much and am grateful to get to be his mommy.
We had a party for him at the park on Father's Day and got to celebrate it with Mari. What a fun time we had! We are so grateful for her and for the unconditional love she has for Tye as well as us. She is an example to us. We love her so much.

Oh What Do You Do in the SUMMERTIME.....

Baseball 2012

Kadon is playing Tball again this year and is so excited! He is on the Boston Red Sox and is loving every minute. He is such a good ball player! He can usually hit the first pitch the coach throws and when that bat connects with the ball it goes soaring. This is such a good sport for him because he is able to focus on the ball. Hopefully he will continue to love it as much as he does now. And it has always been my dad's dream to have one of his sons play baseball but that never happened and now he says he finally got his wish it just took a grandson to make it happen.

"Hello?!"

Tye loves to call "Bopa"(grandpa) on the phone. He will walk around on his play phone saying "hello Bopa". Such a sweet boy!

Easter 2012


We have lots of Traditions at Easter time that we do. First we dye Easter eggs. Then we make sure we have a new Easter outfit. (I LOVE that part! SHOPPING!!!) Then when Easter morning is here we have a lesson about Easter and what it is we are celebrating. The kids then get to find their Easter baskets that we hide and the eggs the Easter bunny left. We attend church and thank Heavenly Father for the wonderful gift of his son and his resurrection. Then it is off to Gma T's and Poppy W's for dinner and an Easter egg hunt. My parents hide candy and eggs all over their backyard. Kadon loves this because the eggs are filled with money and he is so much like his dad! In fact he was trying yo sell his candy to his cousins so he could get more money.
I love Easter! There is something about Spring time, with the rebirth of nature and the resurrection of our Savior that brings peace and joy.
They are just growing up too fast. I grateful everyday for these two amazing boys.

Brothers. I love watching these 2 play with each other. They are so fun! There is such a difference watching them play together verses how they play with others. They love to jump on each other, wrestle each other to the ground, push each other around on the bikes or doing quiet thing together. What a blessing these two are in my life and in each others as well.

Partners in Crime...

I think that says it all. These 2 are such mischief makers.

The Leprechauns have come!



The Leprechaun's found our house made a huge mess in the Living room and Kitchen. Boy was it messy! They even turned our milk green and the toilet water wear he forgot to flush. Who knew Leprechauns pee was green. Now we do! They boys had fun finding all the gold they left and the treats they left for them.

The Lepruchans have come

Ladies Men!



These 2 boys are completely "girl crazy"! Whenever these girls show up my boys go crazy! Kadon wanting to hold Lulu and Tye wanting all the attention from the older girls.

Happy 100th Birthday Oreo!

tWe had the cousins over to celebrate Oreo's 100th Birthday. It was so much fun! The kiddos pigged out on Oreos and milk.


Tye Loves to make messes just so he can clean them up! His favorite mess to make is with the dogs food. As you can see he fills the water side with dog food and then throws it all over the kitchen floor. But as you can see he will get the broom and clean it up. What a silly boy!
