Mr. Clean

It's never to early to teach your kids how to vacuum right? J/K This has become a battle everytime I pull out the vacuum Lincoln wants it and won't even let me help him. I even have an extra nozzle that looks exactly the same that I try and give but he wants the real thing!!

Sleeping Under the Tree

 Every year we let the boys sleep under the tree after watching movies together etc. I usually try and sleep under the tree with them but said I would have to take a rain check till next year, in fear I wouldn't be able to move the next. JD also said he was a "NO Go" but when I came back from brushing my teeth I found all my boys fast asleep!!

I love how sweet and innocent kids are when they are asleep!!

Random Pics

I just love my little Lincoln and all his funny faces!! He absolutely loves the camera and will ham it up for it any time. Of course Ty had to join in the fun!!

Happy Halloween

For Halloween I purchased Tyler a knight costume, that is what he wanted. But a couple of days before his preschool party he informed me that he didn't want to be a knight he wanted to be a vampire so he could scare all the girls in his class :) Luckily he was a vampire last year and the costume still fit.

It was a pretty mellow Halloween for us this year usually we are so busy with different Halloween activities that sometimes we enjoy the month of October more than December!! (A lot of that has to do with JD's job) Not this year our whole world got turned upside in September and JD was right in the thick of starting another business and lets face it I was too tired from the pregnancy and Lincoln to do many activities on my own.

The boys had a blast Halloween night and looked absolutely adorable!!

Carving Pumpkins

Kaden absolutely hated cleaning out his pumpkin....

YES he is almost throwing up while JD and I took pictures and laughed. (He throws up very easily)

My sweet little boy!!

Tyler couldn't be more excited, he asked every five minutes when we were going to carve pumpkins after going to Grandma & Grandpa Reeves pumpkin patch

Lincoln was entertained by sticking his tool into a hole in his pumpkin stem!!

San Diego 2011

We spent a week on the beach.... unfortunately it was cold and clouded over the whole week. The kids had fun playing with their cousins, it was not the best vacation we have ever had but I did get to spend some time with my awesome hubby :)

Kaden braved the cold and learned to stand up on the boogie board

I love Lincolns foot prints in the sand. He loved following the tracks of the lifeguard trucks

When you would tell Lincoln to smile this is the face you would get

DisneyLand

After the wonderful trip Kaden and I had to Disney land last year I convinced JD to go for a couple days before our San Diego trip. We also made Ty and Kaden a deal in January that if they read their scriptures every night we would go. Our timing of days was not the best, it was crowded. But the kids still loved it. Lincoln was even entertained with everything to look at.

Tyler was the most excited to go see Mickey so it was one of the first things we did!!

Waiting in line for the Toy Story Ride!!

It was a mad dash to make our 6:30 am flight. We arrived at the airport at 6:00 and thankfully for the family line we made our flight with 2 minutes to spare :) It really was nice just walking onto the plane and not waiting around in the airport, even though I am sure I have plenty more gray hairs that will need some coloring.

Lincoln on his first plane ride he did great and had fun being passed between Mom and Dad over the seats!!

We attempted to see the World of Color, but went to get our fast passes 5
minutes too late. But we talked to three different employees and they told us were to go so we could still see good. Boy were they wrong and after an hour of saving our spot dealing with two tired kids and having Kaden fall asleep on the ground we could not see a dang thing..... so we left!!
