Randomness

 I don't know what I love more the cheeks or the eyes!!

 Fun in the tub. This is how I keep Lincoln entertained while I do my hair in the mornings.

 Two little buddies

 Finding the witches at Gardner Village, my great friend Janessa braved an outing with me and my kids. Luckily she has kids the same age so the craziness combined worked out perfectly!!

 JD and I spent a night at the Alaskan Inn.. A night with my hubby to myself HEAVEN!!!

 Celebrating Kristy's birthday at the usaul Olive Garden. It was so fun to be able to talk and laugh about so many different things!! 

 

Kayci turned 7 and every year I take her shopping so she can pick out what she really wants and we can have some fun girl time together. I love this little girl!!

 April turned 30!! We headed to PF Changs and had a great night catching up with everyone and laughing. I am so lucky to have so many good friends :)

Lauren is having a girl :) We had a fun shower for her where April made everything look amazing.  

NOOOOOOO....

I knew Lincoln was going to get hurt because of how much he loves to climb and how fearless he is but I thought we would end up with a broken arm, collar bone, etc. Well nope he completely knocked his front tooth out while climbing on a playground at Kaden's soccer practice.

The Story: I was sitting on the grass with Kennedy talking to my sister while Lincoln and Tyler played on the playground I looked over and saw him fall on some fake rock stairs, I also noticed a white thing fall to the ground. Then the crying started I ran over picked him up and carried him over by the car to get some wipes to clean up the blood. Well after examining his face and remembering the white thing I saw fall I looked in his mouth and sure enough the tooth was gone. I ran over to the playground got the tooth, (which was all in one piece) asked Amanda to keep my kids and I was in the car, on my way to the dentist, determined to save the tooth. I drove to the closest dentist office...they were closed. I called my dentist Dr. Holt. He was still at his office, YES, then the conversation preceded. Me, "Josh, Lincoln knocked his front tooth out of his mouth I am on my way can you re-implant it?" Dr. Holt, " Alisa you do not re-implant baby teeth, if it was a permanent tooth we would." "NO that is not what I want to hear can you do an implant or anything?"  "No we can't... bring him in I will check his other teeth" "Okay"   I was ticked I did not want my cute little boy to go without a tooth for 6 + years are you kidding me. The family pictures are going to look funny, I did not want a funny looking kid. Totally vain I know. We got to the docs office, his other teeth were fine, he didn't even have a fat lip. The dentist gave him a cute container to put his tooth in and we were on our way.  This happened October 2, 2012. Since a few weeks have gone I have gotten use to my hill billy boy and think he still looks pretty darn cute :)  

Happy B-Day JD

 JD turned 32 and it was pretty uneventful. The boys got him some tool boxes and I got him some shirts. That night we headed down to City Creek for the first time. The kids loved it.

 While I left JD and the grandparents in charge so I could go browse GAP Kids super fast Kaden and Lincoln got soaking wet in the fountains. It was a cold night... I had to make my way back to GAP and purchase some new shirts for Kaden and Lincoln. After they got their nice warm sweatshirts on Kaden said to Tyler, "see don't you wish you got wet... we got new shirts"  Not the thought process I was looking for.

Grandma Dunn was showing Lincoln around her 2nd home :)

Doughnut Falls

 We had to take Kennedy to the top... maybe not the safest thing.

 The boys in the cave under the waterfall

 All tuckered out

The boys love hiking so we took another Sunday hike up to Doughnut Falls. It was absolutely gorgeous and so much fun. I was impressed with how good of hikers Kaden and Tyler were.

Kennedy 7 months

Oh how we love you so... you are still such a good little girl. Everything goes straight to your mouth and you are rolling all over the place. You love watching your brothers run and play. One of you favorite things is swinging outside on the swingset!!

Hiking in Butterfield Canyon

We spent a wonderful Sunday afternoon on a tough hike up in Butterfield Canyon. My boys absolutely loved it!!

Stinkin Lincoln

Oh our little Lincoln how we love you, you are the funniest happiest little boy and then..... you are a NIGHTMARE and fight me about everything. Good thing you are so dang cute!!

Fun at the Beach

We LOVE the Herriman Beach!!

Tyler's1st Day of Kindergarten

 Waiting for the bus

I cannot believe Tyler started Kindergarten, even two months later it still tuggs on my heart strings to watch him head off to the bus. He was so excited to ride the bus like Kaden does.... I followed the bus to school. I almost brought him back home with me but held back and sent him off with lots of kisses and hugs.

Watermelon

 I love these pics of my boys!!
