Chili's Babyshower

My cute coworkers at Chili's threw me a baby shower and I got a lot of fun stuff. Mom was sad that she couldn't be here for this one or the next one so here are some pictures of the things that I recieved!

Gage and Gaven even got a present from one of my friends there!

These next two were all one gift and a very creative one!! I pulled one end out of a laundry basket while someone held the basket. All this stuff looked so cute hanging on a clothes line!

I am very fortunate to have some really wonderful friends here. My ward is having a shower for me next week so there will be more pictures!!

Summer fun!

Here are some fun things that we have done this summer. It has been really nice having Chris home so that we can hang out all together. We don't get to do that very often!

We went for a hike in Brighton on Father's day. Here is Gaven being silly.

Remeber slide rock?

Some nice man took a family picture of us out on Silver Lake

Gage's preschool graduation party at the park

For some reason it won't let me put anymore pictures in this post. I am dumb when it comes to things like this so I will post some more on a different post.

Gage turns 4

Here is Gage riding his bike. He had a hard time peddling.

Here is his Batman cake that was a disaster, but he liked it!
Opening his cool bike

This is a cute face. He was so excited!

More Batman stuff of course. Now they can both dress up

Thanks for calling him! He had so much fun talking to everyone on his birthday. I can't believe that he is 4. I looked through all of his baby pictures and he was so little. Now he is just my little man who can do pretty much everything. Mom he loves the toy you bought him. He has been playing with it all day!

The Big Boy Room!

We finally got thier big boy room done!! It turned out pretty cute and they are loving it. They have both slept in there the last couple of nights and have done really well. It's wierd for me that they are so far away, but they are big now so that's what happens I guess! Here are some pictures of it.

New Pictures!!!

Hey family!! We are horrible with this whole blog thing. I thought I would post something and let you look at some fun pictures!!! I should find out what I am having in a couple of weeks and we are excited. If it's a boy you all have to give me two names, and remeber nothing common. Sorry, I already have a girl name if on the off chance that's what it is. They boys are really excited to sleep in thier new room and I hope to have it all ready by next weekend. We have everything now we just have to set it up and paint. I will post pics when we are done. Hope you are all doing well!!!

Thanksgiving Dinner menu

I am sooo excited to see you guys!!! It's so close! I have the rooms almost all ready for you all. I love making things fun for company!
As far as the menu is concered all of your ideas have been great! You all know I love the cranberry salad which I will make, even if it's just a small one, so if everyone else wants the jello/pretzel one we can do both. I love green beans with cream of mushroom soup. But other than that and of course the traditional things like: stuffing, gravey, turkey, pumpkin pie, that's all I care about.
I'll make a Christmas list. That's a good idea to exchange at Thanksgiving. I love you all!!

P.S. To The Stewarts, You will be there in spirit and we will call often. I love you!

Christmas Gift Exchange

Hi everyone, so I just thought I'd do a quick post and have everyone think about what they want for Christmas and make a list asap. We will do it tonight as well!! I really want to bring my gifts to thanksgiving so I don't have to mail them, so it'd be great if people could get these out by the weekend at least:) I'll have to email Lauren and Steve since I know they won't check the blog. Mom this includes you too:) Love you guys!!
