Happy Birthday Logan!

Happy 1st Birthday Logan!!
My baby is a year old!  This past year has gone by too fast.  Logan is the happiest little guy around.  He wanders around smiling and gabbing all day long.  He loves to hold toys and put them in his mouth as he wanders around.  He says Mama, Dada, ball, vroom-vroom, Ama, Apa, snack, cup, look...and he loves to jabber!  Logan loves McKay and they are actually starting to play together really good until one of them takes the toy the other one wants :-).  We had a family dinner for his birthday and he had a blast being the center of attention.

Fun at Home

These random fun moments are what make my life so great...

My kitchen destroyer- no matter how hard I try to keep the kitchen clean, Logan manages to make a new mess.  But with this smile how can I get mad at him?

Image
McKay is quite the Super Hero.  Another post on my flying Super Hero is coming...

Image
These silly boys make me laugh.  It doesn't take much to bring smiles and giggles.  What happy boys they are!

Image
We have the most beautiful view from our deck.  Sunset pictures never do them justice...so picture this times ten!

Image
McKay pulls his chair over to the window and pulls all the window clings off and puts them all over his body.  Then just starts giggling!  It was so precious!

Camping

Matt's parents got a new trailer this summer so we've helped them break it in a little bit...  I admit I'm not a camper but I have enjoyed our few campouts.  One night is plenty for me...  Matt and McKay love it, and Logan loves it too- putting every rock in his mouth, eating everything in sight, getting dirt from head to toe- needless to say I don't get much relaxing!  But it is fun to get outdoors and slow down a little.

Summertime Fun!

Well I have a whole summer to update...here's our highlights-

We're all moved and loving life in Santaquin.  McKay loves his "park" and could live in the sandbox if I would let him.

Image
Logan is all smiles!

Image
This picture basically sums up our summer.  Raspberries!!  Yah we have a lot and I spend every other afternoon picking away.  Good thing they are yummy to eat!!

Image
Blanket rides!  McKay and Logan invented this and they do it so well together it is fun to see them interact.  McKay will pull a blanket out (of course usually not just one...) and Logan will go sit on the blanket.  McKay will then drag the blanket around until Logan falls off.  They will both laugh and then do it again.  It is fun to watch!

Image
Happy Boy!

We ventured to the Splash Pad with Aunt Adrian and it was a hit!  McKay loved the water and Logan loved the swings.  It is a perfect combination!

Image
For Logan's birthday, he got a swing and he loves it!  He will sit in here as long as you are willing to push him!

Image
Fun in a box!  The adventures you can have with a cardboard box...

Happy Birthday Matt!

Happy Birthday Matt!
Sorry it was kind of a dud of a birthday...we'll make it up next year!  Love you!  Thanks for all you do!

Family Pictures

Before my parents left we had family pictures taken.  We got them back and they turned out soo good!!  It's been fun to look through them and see everyone's personalities come out.
