Bend it like Ayden?

We signed Ayden up for soccer this fall. He did great the very first practice. After that he decided that he didn't want to be a part of it. He would tell us on the car ride to a game that he was "sicky" and couldn't play. We had a difficult time getting him onto the field-once I lured him onto the field with a ding dong. He quickly ran off when he realized that I wasn't going to give it to him. He tipped the goal over on himself, getting his head stuck in the net in the process. I think we will be waiting a little longer to sign this boy up for organized sports!

do you have your tickets...

to the gun show?When we ask Colby to show us his mucles, he flexes and then shakes. He cracks us up!

Puerto Vallarta

We were able to take a wonderful vacation this summer. No kids. Bliss! We had such a great time. We stayed at an all-inclusive resort in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. It was gorgeous! The fam This ended up being one of our favorite pictures (even though the quality is horrible). This was our first day here eating lunch. I was taking a picture of Kipp and at the last second, I told our server to get in the picture. Kipp made a totally awkward face-got to love Kipp. All the Pina Coladas we could drink. Virgin of course!

I love my parents!

Eating again! They had several different restaurants at the resort. It was fun trying out a new place each night.

One morning we went on an ATV tour. One of the tour guides was splashing everyone with mud (it had poured rain the night before our ride) he kept acting like he didn't understand English, at the end of the tour he was speaking English perfectly-little crapper! We were filthy!

The sistas'

This was taken at a place called El Eden were the Predator was filmed. We were supposed to be able to swim in the river and go down some natural rock slides in the waterfall, however after renting jeeps and a 2 hour long ride we got up there to find that they water was too rapid that day to get in. It was gorgeous though!
After leaving El Eden we drove to a little surf town. The boys got some boards and tried to hang ten.

We had so much fun thanks to wonderful family and friends that helped us out with our munchkins. We should take vacations more often!

Riverton Days

Ayden made huge strides this summer in the ride department. He actually enjoyed them! A much different experience than last summer where each ride had to be stopped early to keep the toddler from bailing. Ayden and Boston loved this one in particular-an you tell? They laughed the entire time. Lilah and Colby just chillin'

Budding Photographer

Ayden loves to take pictures with the camera. He walks around taking pictures of us, himself, and random objects. He was becoming a great little photographer, until he dropped the camera. Now we are getting images like this:
Needless to say, his photography career came to an abrupt halt.

3 Musketeers

These three are little pals and they crack me up! Every time they get together at our house-out comes Ayden's super hero gear. There are 3 parts to the darling costume (that my darling sister-in-law made) so they each get one part, then they rotate them. They then ask for the "Buzz song" which is the music at the beginning of Toy Story 2 where Buzz is flying through space (I purchased it on iTunes because it was a frequent request from Ayden for me to "sing." It is difficult to "sing" instrumental "songs.") They run around the house like super heroes. These kids are quite cute together.
