So I'm a little behind - ahem - ok, A LOT behind. But I'll try. I was even going to put them in order of when they happened....then they uploaded in a different order - so not doing that any more.
This took us at least a good hour - but by the miracle of time-lapse you only have to endure 13 seconds of it.
James turned 5 - I was pretty proud of the decorations - that I bought at the store. Ha
I even wrote on the cake - we are pretty low key for birthdays
James started playing baseball. It was pretty intense for a 5 year old. He was the youngest on his team.
I couldn't believe all the gear they had to bring on their own. When I played we all shared the same helmets and bats.
We have a guy in our ward who cuts down trees. This is him cutting down our big one in front
Logan LOVES to dress up - this will be proven by the photo evidence provided below
The knight
Wrestling is pretty much a constant here
Throw back photos. I was cleaning out on my my memory boxes. This is one my treasures. Sure do miss him.
This was also a photo that HAD to be shared. It takes a lot to make your hair into a geometric shape.
James was distraught because he couldn't find the penny he had been playing with in the tub. We pulled Logan out to look for it. LOL.
Logan trying out the Lego box, hook and gun look
The boys found some of my bras and thought they were so funny
Did I mention that Logan loves to dress up?
James trying to dress like James (Boppy)
The elephant
I made some stuff for our ward auction (I craft like once a year)
I took third place in our ward Chili Cook-off this year
Family home evening song leading
More baseball and this photo makes me a little sad because he looks so grown up
I got called as the personal progress leader in the Young Women.
Taking the firetruck kite for spin
Lots of waiting and watching at brothers baseball games
James had a 50's style dance at school and I got to help
These kids had a 7:00 game one night (7 is when my kiddos are usually in bed)
James created this outfit for Logan
I got my hairs cut
These two came up with this pose on their own
Logan started preschool
THE BEACH

These two are like carrots and peas and oil and water

We took an adventure to this awesome tree house
Looking out from the tree house
James at this point LOVED birds - he is now into dinosaurs

My birthday dinner. Its a burrito Grande and I ate every bite.

I cleaned out/up our ward maintenance closet for a YW project. I was pretty proud of my work
Our neighbors tree fell and it became the perfect rocket ship
Major bubble in the tub. So fun.
A salamander and a snail
Our little neighborhood party in the rain. Love all these kiddos.
He did this pose all on his own
Baby frogs the boys found at the church
Walking to church with dad. So fun that you can do this in Utah. If we walked here in Alabama it would take us 3 hours and 6 minutes....according to google.
Cousin fun
We ran a race and broke the stroller we were borrowing 1 minute before the race started. Oops.
Logan's medal for the race. He ran the last .25 of the lap of the race
Crazy hair
This is James as "light man"
Uncle Stephen is the coolest
And aunt Sara is too
Cyndi took us to see Beauty and the Beast at the Tuacahn
The Wrights took us boating and Uncle Jason even let James drive. He loved it.
Mud fight at the freezing Springville "beach"
This was a true gift from above. These two sat by each other and slept the whole way home on our second flight
Playing with the neighbors, in the rain, in the gutter, in the pool. Isn't this what summer days are all about
One reason why I don't like to take the boys to Lowes or Home Depot....when I'm in a hurry is this. They have to ride on every single lawn mower.
I jumped off this pole at girls camp. It was AWESOME
He turned into a "three-nager"
Ropes course. Stretch Logan
More dress ups
Checked out the aquarium in Georgia. It was so cool. They had 4 of these big guys
This is a dragon seahorse.
We were in a small accident (rear-ended) and got this car while the van was getting fixed. This is pretty much James dream car. He cried when we had to take it back.
James reading to Logan - I love it when these 30 second moments happen.
Logan's best friend, Batman
James and Logan on James first day of school
First day of school
Headphones that don't work - check, goggles- check, belt - check, suspenders - check, hat - check, Lion silk -check, ipad - check.
Super Captain Transformer (intense)
The perfect cucumber holder
I helped decorate for our ward talent show
Logan's school
We usually don't take the boys out to eat - for some reason it increases their crazy mode by at least 50%
We replaced our back door
We replaced our kitchen floor - we replaced our minds. AHHHH
James taking batman for a ride in the jeep
Logan using is costume as a pillow.
I think that will have to do.
