Happy Birthday Little Man!!!

I cannot believe how fast the last 3 years have flown by. My baby, is not a baby anymore. He is so grown up and so funny, he keeps our family laughing. I love him so much and I am so thankful that I have been blessed to be his mom. Buck is in Italy on a business trip, so we are celebrating Aiden's birthday when Buck comes home, but we did do a few fun things yesterday. We went to Stansbury Day's with Shay and her girls, we ate yummy food, the boy's had cotton candy and McKinley got her face painted, it is seriously the most amazing face painting I have ever seen. After Stansbury Day's we all went into Sale Lake to Target for school shoes (only 1 week till school starts, :)) then we went to dinner at Carino's. YUMMY!!! Aiden got ice cream and we sang Happy Birthday to him. He thought he was pretty special. He wants a tractor cake for his birthday, so we will have tractor cake and ice cream and open presents on Wednesday after Buck get's back. Happy Birthday little man!!

Day at the Park

We finally had a day with NO RAIN! It was still a little on the cool side, but perfect weather to go to the park. We had our cousin Nina with us for the day, so we all went to the park to play. What fun!!

Homemade Bread - Oh My!!!

I was given this recipe from a friend on a forum I belong to. I made it tonight for dinner and it was soooo good and soooo easy!!! The recipe made enough dough for 1 loaf a bread and a pan full of cinnamon rolls. The bad part is that it is so good, that I think we are going to be craving it every day now.

Merry Christmas!!!

Merry Christmas to everyone!!!! We have had a great Christmas!! We had Eric & Shay and their girls here and we have had a lot of fun!! I swear, I have got to have the silliest, craziest kids there are on the face of the earth, not to mention the cutest :) (I know, I know, I'm partial, but what can I say??) Aiden got this cute little ride on horse (he is OBSESSED with horses) and he has been so funny to watch with it..... Let's simply put it, a picture is worth 1000 words.....

Yes..... he is milking his horse. :)

And now, he is feeding his horse the milk. :)

What CRAZY, FUNNY Kids!!!!




Last but not least, my little Diva, McKinley, she has everything she could possibly put on, on.

World's Worst Blogger....

I think that I have officially won the title of World's Worst Blogger. It has been so long since I have posted anything. I finally got Halloween pic's off my camera and have them ready to put on here. We had a great Halloween! The Saturday before Halloween our Ward had a Trunk or Treat at the Drive-In Theater. We first had Hamburgers and Hotdogs then they had a children's costume parade and Trunk or Treated and then after they all had way too much candy we watched Journey to the Center of the Earth at the Drive-In. It was a blast!! The weather was nice and not to cold, we laid all the seats down in the Expedition and we all layed on foam pads in the back and watched the movie. We had a great time.

Aiden was supposed to be a horse. He loves horse's. But when it came time to put the costume on he was having nothing to do with it. So instead, he wore the cute little cowboy hat that Grandpa Darwin & Grandma Roxie gave him for his birthday and he was a cowboy instead. You can see his horse costume laying in the back of the Expedition. LOL! He does make a mighty cute cowboy if I do say so myself.



Dallin was my Ninja man this year. He looked awesome!! Dallin has taken Karate and this just fit him perfectly this year. I love this kid, he is so much fun!!



McKinley was the cutest witch ever!!! She looked so darling in her little costume. She is growing up so fast and isn't a little girl anymore. In fact, Buck and I were talking last week and realized we have a "tweener". She is so much fun and is such a good girl and a great big sister.

Here she is with one of her really good friends!!

1st Day of School....

I don't know who is more excited about the first day of school, the kids or me. :) McKinley started 4th grade today and is in Mr. Johnson's classand Dallin is in 1st grade this year and his teacher is Mrs. Christen. I can't believe how big they are getting. Time is just flying by!! They came home from school today, and the first thing out of McKinley's mouth was, "This was the best day of my whole life." They both really like their teachers and are excited for the school year. Here is a picture of the 2 of them, it's proof that they really do like each other. :) They are such good kids and are getting so big. I just love them so much!!

No Bread, Chocolate!!

We were sitting in Church yesterday, and I was trying to get Aiden to fold his arms for the Sacrament Prayer. I asked him to fold his arms and then they would bring us the bread. He kept asking for the bread, and I told him it was coming. When the bread was about 4 rows in front of us, I told him, here comes the bread. And in a rather loud voice, he replied, "No bread, Chocolate!!" He is a boy after my own heart!! :)
