Thanksgiving

This year for thanksgiving we headed to St. George with a very full house full of my brothers and sisters. It is a very rare occasion that we are all together at the same time, so it was fun to be with everybody. We did lots of shopping, playing, eating, and visiting. Since we won’t be seeing each other for Christmas, we decided to let the cousins open their presents with each other to see what we all got. That was a lot of fun, thanks for the great gifts cuz. Hope you all had a full Thanksgiving as well.

Fall fun

A couple of weekends ago we had our little tradition of playing in the leaves. We wish there were more leaves, but had fun anyways. This year was epically fun, because Carson really got into it and had the best time playing with Dillon and running around in the crunchy leaves. Oh what fun….. I love this time of year!









Dillon asked to take some pictures, so here they are. Great job buddy!

Quack

Last weekend we headed out into the freezing cold and fed the ducks. Once they started to approach us, Dillon was outta there, but Carson just stood right by dad and keep on feeding them. We love wheeler farms, and always have a great time when we go….. even in the cold.

Random cuteness!

I love my kids! They are just too cute not to share, thanks for the memories my loves!
Dillon helping Carson put on his shoes, what a great big brother
What a big boy eating all by himself
My boys reading books together
This just makes me laugh!
What a stud
The boys watching the ever so exciting garbage truck. The really sweet part about this is Carson is a bit scared of it, but Dillon is always right there with him and holding him and telling him “don’t worry bud, I’m right here and it won’t hurt you” so sweet!

5 year old art

I am actually quite impressed with my little 5 year old. He has just found out how much he loves to draw and color. This first picture he got the idea from Carson. Dillon drew this truck for Carson, he didn’t understand that it was just a picture and was trying to drive it and play with it. Dillon was laughing at him but soon after that got the great idea to cut out the trucks so he could drive them. I love his little imagination, and yes he did this ALL on his own. The scissors, the glue and everything…. Pretty good eh?

Halloween fun

We had a great Halloween weekend! It started on Friday with a party in Dillon’s class and I went to help out with the party. Carson had a great time seeing all the kids dressed up, and I had fun seeing Dillon’s school friends. Then we headed out to Chris’s work to trick-or-treat there. The kids scored lots of candy there, in fact we could have been done… but no way! On Saturday we got all ready and headed out in the rain to trick or treat. Dillon did so good, saying “trick-or-treat” and thanking everybody! He was so excited he was running from house to house. Carson didn’t really get it. The first drop of the candy in his bucket and he was done ready to go home and eat it. I was so proud of Dillon, he wanted to keep going and going. We were about half way through our part of the neighborhood and we had to empty out his bucket because it was so full and not much more would fit in there. By the time we got home it was overflowing with candy. Carson didn’t get as much, because we didn’t take him up every time, but he got way more than he needs. Both boys had a great Halloween, and so did we!
