My Twin!

I had just finished my posts for the night and I was closing up shop in the house. I walked into the office and the comp was doing a slide show of all our pictures and the picture of me in the pumpkin costume popped up. It was so weird because it was almost like looking at my little Brinny girl... people always tell me she looks like me but I never saw it until I saw this pic. We even have the same little grin :)


My New Favorite People...

Don't you know if you want to be on my favorite people list, all you have to do is one simple thing

Come and visit me :) See, simple right?

David's sister Tami came with her two kids, Mekhi and little baby Tayvin. It was our first time meeting Tayvin and what a cutie! And of course Aidan was in heaven having Mekhi here.

Cute cousins Tayvin and Brinn

Aidan and Mekhi... buddies!

And Aidan and Mekhi with uncle Austi who saved the day and did some babysitting for us. Thanks Austin!


Thanks for coming Tami... we love you guys and miss you already!

Crazy Aidan

This clip was supposed to be of Brinn showing off her new "real" crawl vs. her army crawl, but instead turned out to be Aidan showing off his crazy self.

Brinn Attacks

Brinn loves babies and every time I show her a doll, or a mirror with her own reflection she goes in for the kiss (a little vain but I can't resist kissing that face either.) So I was going to video her kissing the baby but instead she decided to attack the baby. I guess I will have to be extra careful to keep my eye on her when she is around real babies.

I'm Back!

I have been in Utah the last couple if weeks and so now I need to play catch-up. (WARNING: The next few post contain lots of pictures, mostly for family to see. Hope they don't bore you too much.)

Random Pics:


Aidan and Brinn at my cousin Tyler and his adorable wife Rachel's wedding

Aidan and grandpa taking a spin around the block.

Holli and Aidan on the ride at Jungle Jim's.

Austin with the kiddos.

Brinn loves Elli... I'm not sure if the feelings are mutual :)

Aidan and his new best friend Laci, and my grandpa who I am sure is thrilled about this picture :)

Brinn is getting so big!

My Grandma (Dad's mom), Brinn, and I. It was so fun to see her... we miss not being able to see her more!

Fun To See...

It was so fun to see...

Jen, my cousin who is the cutest little prego girl ever. It has been way to long since I last saw her!
'
My childhood best friend Rachel. I feel so blessed to have friends in my life who I can not see for years and then when we are together it is like no time has passed.

Rachel and my kids together... One of those full circle moments for me, because this was the age we were when we were playing together.

Britt, my cousin. I love her. She is so fun and one of those people who really seems to put everyone else before herself.

The Zoo...

The one thing my dad wanted to do in Utah was take the kiddos to the zoo.

Grandma, Brinn, Aidan, Jackson, Elli, and Grandpa

Brinn and Elli... all smilies

Aidan and Jackson showing us how stinky the elephant poop was.

On the train...

...Which Aidan loved!

Thanks mom and dad for everything! You spoiled us for sure! We love you!

The Rodeo...

While in Bear Lake we went to the rodeo...

Brinn's first time at the rodeo

At the rodeo they had a little contest where all the kids go in the arena and chase a calf with a ribbon tied on it's tail. Whichever kid grabs the ribbon gets a prize. We asked Aidan if he wanted to do it and he said yes. I don't actually think he knew there was a cow in there till the very end but he was having a fun time following the masses. He's kind of hard to see in the video but he's towards the back of the group with the grey shirt and tan pants... the smallest kid out there. It was so funny!
(Video would not upload... I will try it again soon!)

Just For Fun...
