Utah trip-baby shower 12/3/08

Isaac helped me open all the presents. He would say after each one, oh it's for the baby.





We all have little kids and the boys loved to see all there friends. We had several there and Aunt Christen was good enough to keep an eye on the them during most of the shower, thanks.

My mom threw a baby shower for me while we in Utah so that I could see some of my friends while I was there. It was really fun to be able to see everyone I miss so much. Thank you all. Thank you especially to my mom.

snow snow snow 11/28/08

Most of what Isaac talked about before we went to Utah was snow and going skiing. This was Isaac's 3rd year of skiing. There hadn't been much snow accumulation this year for the Thanksgiving season. (Although Nana called the day after we left and it seem to have been snowing ever since, go figure.) But we went up to Brighton and Millie wasn't open yet because there wasn't enough snow so we went hiking and sledding and Isaac skied.
It's nice when the lift is off to bring your dad so he can run down the hill behind you so he can bring you back up.

Beckam loved the snow. He road the sleds on the way up and down the hill. Isn't being a kid great. His favorite part was throwing snow at everyone, and his least favorite part was getting it thrown back at him. We were going to get Beckam to ski this year too. But he hates shoes and when we tried to get the ski boots that were way too huge on him we quickly new it wasn't going to fly this year. So we'll try again next winter.


Jeff and Ryan climbed up on top of the lift. Isaac wanted to go too, but since he was wearing ski boots we decided it wasn't the best idea.



Ryan on top of the rocks.


Our attempt at a family picture. The boys just wanted to play.


What a lucky mom I am to have such cute, fun boys.


Beckam getting a lift up the hill. We like to try and wear our dad out when ever we can it helps the rest of us in trying to keep up with him.



Isaac and Papa watching the boys (ryan, jeff, braden, and dad) going of jumps while sledding.


Yum! Isaac was trying to get us all to taste the snow with him but we were all too cold.



What a cute boy!


Beckam and Uncle Jeff getting ready to sled down the hill.

One of Isaac's favorite ski lifts aka dad.

Going down again...


Isaac was freezing and hungry when we got back down to the car. Everything he had on was soaking wet except for his under layer aka pj's. So we pulled all his snow stuff off stuck mom's hat on and found a granola bar. Man playing in the snow is so fun!!



For some reason I couldn't get the pictures to move for me. Man sometimes I feel like technology hates me. I'll try and edit it later I guess.

Utah trip-pictures at the park 11/26/08



Dad doing one of his classic backflips.
Isaac taking care of dad after he landed on his boot after his backflip off the huge tire.

The boys coverd me in wood chips just so the picture had a little more realism to it.

Beckam giving mom and the baby a ride on the tire swing.


Dad climbed up into the big tire and wedged himself in Isaac thought it was pretty cool.




We took the boys over to Crestwood park, near Sam's parents house, and took a few pictures. It was a really nice day and we had fun running around the park for a little while.
