Christmas

We had Christmas, it was great... sorry it took so long to post... LOL

Pumpkin Patch

We went to the Vineyard nursery in Orem with Mindy, Paige, Benson, and Everett to pick out pumpkins, go through the corn-maze, and go to "pumpkinland".




We got there a little earlier than Mindy and her kids, so I let the girls pick out pumpkins and took pictures of just them.



The girls together...we're working on getting Lexi to smile with her teeth...lol. :)



Ashton looking at pumpkins.



Lexi found her pumpkin.



It was a little too heavy for her to pick up....lol.

Lexi's eyes look a little funny, but Ash's face was SO cute!



My little pumpkins.



Sweetest little pumpkin I've ever seen.

We had such a great time! :) After the corn-maze, we got to see animals, play in a caterpillar tunnel, a jack-o-lantern house, and on these huge bouncy houses. Then we went through this fun Halloween light show in the barn. It was a really fun day! :)

Ashton's Birthday

Ashton and I have the same birthday, so we had two cakes..... a more kid-friendly chocolate cake, and then my fave brown sugar chocolate fudge cake... mmmmm.... we had a blast and had so much of our family there... it was great! :) Thanks to Uncle Ron for the pics! :) They turned out awesome! :)

Lexi's Birthday

Well, it's official, my little baby is a big girl. She just turned 5 this year and is heading off to Kindergarten. She is so excited! And somehow we ended up having 3 birthday parties for her this year... lol... I'll post pics from the other ones later! :)

4th of July

Abbie and Bobby and their son Major were able to come up around the 4th of July this year for family pictures. We all had a great time. It was great to see them. We went to this farm in Salt Lake: the kids all had a great time. It was fun to take the hay ride and see all the animals.

Ashton-Pie

Ashton updates:
Today Ashton accidentally pulled the baby-doll out of the stroller. At first, she was kinda shocked/scared, but then she got really excited and pulled the doll up to her mouth and "kissed" its head. I ran to get the camera, and when I got back and I was getting set up to take pics she took the headband off the doll.

After I started taking pics I told her to "kiss" the baby and she obliged.

Then she picked up the headband and tried to put the headband back on and looked at it all confused when she couldn't get it to stay on.

Then we moved from "kissing" the baby to biting it's hand... I guess we'll have to talk about that. ;)

Her crawling pose. Although she doesn't technically crawl...lol... she more body crawls... with almost equal speed.


Every once in a while Ashton off-sets her jaw to the side and smiles.... it cracks me up... especially since she only has the two teeth! :)
