Favorite moments

Down through the woods and out to the pasture
'Long as I'm with you it really don't matter...
If you know the song "Big Green Tractor" you know why I couldn't resist getting a pic riding on one with my main squeeze. I love that song! Just about as much as I love my man.
Logan LOVED soccer this year...check out the determination of this little guy! I had a blast cheering for him!!
An action shot after an awesome kick...do you see fear in the other team?! :-)
Katie and her best friend Mallory sat on top of a pumpkin at Young's Dairy together. There is nothing sweeter than seeing these two little girls give each other a hug hello. It's the cutest thing!!
Logan being silly on the tractor wheel. Remember as a kid how fun it was to climb on, hang on, jump off, just about anything you could find?! Logan said he's strong enough to do this because he does 9 push ups every day. :-) He's the coolest.
James and a bunch of his work buds. So, so proud of my man! A man in uniform at that...
I love this sweet little girl SO much! Katie loves to say 'payer'. Listening to a little one pray is the absolute best.
Tyler is my delight in the morning. Seriously- he's the happiest kid I've ever met when he wakes up... nothing like a big friendly smile to greet your day! Sometimes if he can't find me he'll whistle for me...or rather he whistles a nice little tone and I respond. :-) My grandpa used to whistle for my grandma, too...so that makes the fact that Tyler does it even more of a treat. :-)

So these are just a few of my favorite moments in the past few weeks....hope you enjoyed as well!

Happy Halloween!

Have you ever seen a cuter Dorothy? Me neither. :-)
Logan and Katie were more into getting pics than Tyler...unfortunately this was taken before Logan's hair was "Wolverined" and Katie had red bows, but it's still adorable!
Here the kiddos are playing out in the leaves after the Halloween party. I love how happy Logan and Tyler are in this picture!
Balloon animals galore...who know you could make a balloon dragon?! The lady wasn't even phased when that's what the boys asked for. Wow. I would have replied, 'how about a nice doggie?' :-)
And here's the fam. James was an awesome sport wearing a crazy disco outfit I picked out for him. He's so much fun! The kids couldn't believe he grew his hair so fast. :-) Here's Tyler happily in his Flash costume, Logan as 'Wolverine' as they come...and my princess Katie as Dorothy. I dug through the old high school box to pull out my cheerleading uniform....go Trojans! :-) Hope your Halloweens are just as happy!

Summer Days...where did you go?!

Happy Anniversary! (Aug)

Amazing Empanadas James made from scratch for our Ward Fiesta...they were AMAZING!! He only cooks once every few years...and this one was a real treat! Unfortunately it took him so long he decided he'd never do it again. :-)
Tyler man with his trophy from Tee-ball. He was the MVP (which is totally not biased, even if I was the coach...) ;-)

He's ready....And an amazing swing!!! :-)
Here's Tyler on a huge rock while 'watching' Logan's game.

Here's Logan doing one of his many amazing tricks...

Right after an awesome hit...look at that swing. You can just feel the power. :-)Rounding the base...
Miss Katie Princess in her 'Heidi' outfit.
Here she is eating a cupcake ever so delicately in her Sunday dress...
This girl is such a delight! I don't know what I'd do without her.
Our soccer stud. Logan certainly takes after James- he scored every game. (His best game he got 5 goals all on his own!)
Here he is playing goalie- you can see the green soccer ball if you look closely by the truck's wheel- he learned so much this season...I think he's chosen soccer as his sport for life.
It looks like a good chance for a collision right here, but right after this he got around her (see the pic above) and scored. We had SO much fun cheering him on.

So this sums up much of July and August...throw in a cross-country trip to California to see my bro Jonny get married to his gorgeous Erin, James getting a new job and finding out we're heading to NC, and lots of fun with family and friends and you've pretty much got an idea as to how the summer disappeared so quickly! :-)
