St. George

A couple of weeks ago we made a last minute decision to go to St. George with Jamie, Dan and my parents.  I'm glad they all pushed me to go because we had a blast!  (Not that I didn't want to go, but I had to work).

We caught bugs and a lizard.  Paxton loved being outside looking for lizards, we saw quite a few.

When we caught the lizard, Paxton just wanted to let him go, but the lizard wouldn't go.

Paxton and his Uncle Dano that he loves so much!

We went on a hike at Red Cliffs.  The past 2 times we have come on this hike, it has not been good weather, so we didn't care to walk through the water because it was too cold, but Paxton sure didn't seem to mind.

We got to go on a couple of rides on Papa's nice bike, it was a lot of fun.  Paxton sure loved it, the first time we took him out he had his arms up in the air, yelling "wahoo"!

On one of the days we called our friends up that live their and invited them to go swimming with us.  We figured that they probably never get to go swimming because they have a 3 year old and 3 one year olds!  It was so much fun, we had 6 adults to 5 kids.

This is Amelia.

 Jamie and Dan underwater, ha ha!

This is Emmett, he didn't like the water so much, so he chilled over here most of the time.

Madison LOVED the water, I know it doesn't look like it in this picture, but she was kicking her legs and splashing.  I didn't get a picture of Jocelyn, she liked the water too.

This is Anjie and I didn't get a great picture of Lyndon, but he came too.  It was a lot of fun!

Then the next day they babysat Paxton for us while we went to the temple.  I felt bad asking them to babysit, but they are the only ones we know that live in St. George.  Anjie is an amazing mom, she had everything under control and Paxton had fun playing with Amelia.

Here is a video of a few things we did in St. George...

Jamie took tons more pictures than I did, so to see more you can click here and here.

Happy Easter

On Easter morning, we went into Paxton's room telling him that the Easter Bunny came and left some eggs.  He sat right up and with a big smile on his face, said "candies"  "in my mouth".  He knew that those words meant he got candy.  He loved finding his eggs and would shake each one to make sure there was candy in it.  We let him eat a few pieces before breakfast.

These pictures were taken after church.  He was in such a silly mood.  He was yelling at people across the street.

Then later we went to my Grandma's house for dinner with some of my cousins.  After dinner we walked over to the park.

My cousin Lizzie came over to the park a little later to play and once Paxton said Hi to her, he couldn't stop and he just wanted to do everything with her, it was so cute!

It's about time!

I've been meaning to do this forever! 

I have a very talented husband and I helped him start this blog a while ago to display some of his artwork.  Take a look...

This is on display at Brighton High School!

Rem got a fun new toy called a Wacom Tablet for Christmas.  He's been loving drawing pictures on it, it's way cool!

We are excited that Rem has been accepted to the University of Utah to finish up his Bachelors Degree!

It's so fun that Paxton has 2 cousins to celebrate his birthday with.  We started the day off with going to the Zoo. 

 Rem and Tyson

 Paxton loved being there with his cousins.  He especially loves his cousin, Taylor.  They walked around holding hands for part of the time.

Then off we went to the Sorenson's for the PARTY!

 Tyson, Paxton and Keaton

 We also celebrated Easter.  Paxton was so excited to find the eggs because he knew that meant CANDY!

He got some fun birthday presents.  The one on the left hooks up to a sprinkler, which we haven't been able to use yet, but every time he sees it in the garage he picks it up and begs to use it.

After buying Paxton Buzz Lightyear jammies from the Disney Store, we thought it would be fun to get the other boys some jammies as well for their birthdays.  They looked so cute in their jammies.

What a fun party!  Thanks everyone who made this day special!



As of lately...

We had a lot of fun last week.  We baby sat our neighbor, Westin all day.  They played so great together.  Although Paxton was a bully a few times, pushing him down.  Other than that they had fun playing. In the morning they played inside with Lilo.

Then they both took naps (not together).  I just put Westin in my bed while I was setting up the Pack n Play and Paxton wanted to lay down with him.  After they woke up we spent the rest of our time playing outside.  We had a lot of fun!

Another day we went to Airborne with our neighbor, Erin and her daughter, Harper.  They both loved it and it was so fun to watch them!

They had a blast!  We will for sure be coming back here again and again.  For Paxton's age it was only $2 for an hour!

We also went to City Creek Center one day with my mom and my sister, Jamie.  It was beautiful!

Paxton even made a new friend while we were there. 

To see more pictures from this day, click here.

We went to the Disney Store and bought Buzz Lightyear jammies, he loves them!  Rem and I love them because he looks so darn cute wearing them.  He runs around the house saying "finity, beyond!"

Then we went and visited our new neice, Keladry.  Rem's brother, Russell and Liana's new little one.  She is so tiny and sweet!  Made me want another baby.

It was funny when we got there we checked in with the nurse, as we were walking away Paxton turned around and said, "Bye bye, love you" to the the nurse.

Then Rem and I celebrated our 7th Anniversary!  We celebrated a day early because I worked on Saturday.  My sister Jamie and Daniel watched Paxton for us the whole day and over night.  I wasn't ready to leave Paxton over night, but I did it and I was just fine.  I knew he was in good hands and I knew he would be just fine, I was more worried about myself, not being able to see him until the next day when I got home from work.  To see what Paxton did, click here and here.

As for us our plans were to go golfing, go to the temple and dinner and a movie.  You can tell we are an old married couple because Rem wasn't really in the mood to go golfing so we decided to clean out and organize the garage.  We even went to Home Depot and bought some hook and things.  We got so tied up into cleaning the garage that it was too late to go to the temple so we headed out for dinner which we ended up at TGIF because the other places were too crowded.  And then we went and saw a late showing of "Mirror Mirror". 

 We never have a day off together and not having Paxton for the day was really good for us.  Even though we didn't do the most exciting things, we still had a great time together!  I love this man and spending time with him, I'm one lucky girl!
