Update

I have some stuff to post but I can't post until Ryan hooks up the cable so I can download my pictures. Hopefully this week I can get caught up with Christmas.

Latest Happenings

I saw a version of these frames on a craft blog. I can't remember the name of it but I had to make some for my kitchen. I absolutely love them! They would be even cuter if I could paint my walls.



Here they are up close. They were so simple to make too.



Aiden had a Thanksgiving feast and program at Preschool yesterday. They wore Pilgrim vests they made and sang a few songs. Aiden would not sing a single word but at least he did most of the actions. I think he has stage fright!

Olivia, Aiden, and his friend Sloan during the program.

Soccer season is officially over. The boys got their trophies and had their end of the season parties. I can't wait to have more free time especially on Saturday mornings.


Wyatt, Luke, and Keaton. Wyatt had an awesome group of boys on his team. He made alot of new friends.



They both played so good all season. Next up: Baseball!

Christmas Wreath

I saw this wreath on www.littlenannygoat.blogspot.com and had to make it. It was super easy and turned out so adorable. I love it! Is it too early to hang Christmas decorations!!

What can I make next?

Halloween Fun

For Halloween Ryan's family came over to eat and go trick or treating. The kids all had a fun time trick or treating. Wyatt couldn't get to each house fast enough! Aiden was done about half way through and wanted to help pass out candy.



Wyatt, Aiden, and their cousin Grant.

Wyatt was a red ninja, Aiden was Darth Vader, and Grant was a dragon.

More trick or treating.

I can't believe Halloween is over and it's almost Thanksgiving and Christmas. Where did the time go?

Little Devil

Finding this devil costume at World Market for 50% off made my day! It took alot of work to get him to look at the camera!


This is what he did the entire time. He turned his head and stuck his nose up in the air.

It didn't last very long! He couldn't wait to get it off. But it was just too cute to resist!

Don't let his looks fool you he certainly is a little devil!

Grand Canyon and more...

This weekend for Fall Break we went to the Grand Canyon. The weather was perfect and it was so pretty seeing all the leaves falling off the trees and changing colors. There are alot of pictures and they are in random order! This picture is of Aiden at Montezuma's Well. We stopped at a few landmarks on the way home.

This is a picture of all of us at Bedrock City. We just happened to see it on the way to the Grand Canyon and stopped on the way back to Flagstaff. It wasn't too exciting but the kids had fun running around.

More pictures at Bedrock City.

This picture was pretty funny of Wyatt!

Me and my boys at the Grand Canyon. I think they were annoyed that I was so paranoid about them being by the edge of the Canyon. I made them hold hands with one of us everytime they got near the ledges.

We went to the Grand Canyon Deer Farm and fed the deer. Aiden really liked it but Wyatt didn't want to feed them or get near them. Wyatt did like the parrot that said hello and polly want a cracker!

The deer were right up by you especially when you had the cup of food.

Ryan being attacked by the deer! They kept trying to eat his shirt.

All the boys!

We had a really fun trip seeing the Grand Canyon. We can't wait to go back up North to go on the Polar Express!

Boards and ASU game

Ryan and his dad had season tickets for ASU for the past couple of years but this year they decided not to renew so we have been having his family over to watch the games at our house. I saw these sundevil tattoos at the store and had to get them for the party. Aiden's face is really red because we get sunburned from their soccer games earlier in the day.

They thought they were so cool with them on!

This time for the game we ordered a 4 foot long sub from Ned's Krazy Sub and the boys wanted me to get a picture of them by it. They couldn't believe how big it was! I love how Aiden is posing like a football player in this picture. He just did it all by himself!

A little while ago I got together with some friends and made these cute boards. My friend Heather has them on her wall and I had to copy them because they were so darn cute! I finally finished them and had to show them off. I still am waiting for Ryan and I to get our picture done for our board.

I am not the craftiest person ever but I think they turned out pretty good.

SOCCER CONTINUED

The boys had their second soccer games today. They did so awesome! Aiden had his game at 10 and Wyatt had his game at 12 so it was a long, hot day. I also had snack for both teams. Here is Wyatt resting between the games. We had about an hour until Wyatt's game started. I didn't get any pictures of his game because I was too busy cheering him on. He got 4 goals and almost had 4 or 5 more! Ryan told them that for every goal they got he would give them a dollar so they were trying extra hard!


The kids practicing before the game.

Aiden did so good! He scored 3 goals and he was so proud of himself! He just loves playing soccer.

I can't wait to see how they do next week. Ryan actually gets to come see both of their games! I am so proud of them both!

Soccer Season

Soccer season has finally begun! Aiden has been talking about it for months now that he is old enough to play. They are not on the same team but ended up with the same team colors and pretty much the same team names. Aiden's team is the bumble bees and Wyatt's team is the stingers.

I wasn't sure how Aiden would do at his first game but he was pretty aggressive and took charge! He made 2 goals! He was so excited!

Getting ready for the second half.

Waiting for the other team to throw the ball on the field.

Wyatt's team didn't win their first game but he had some pretty good kicks.

I just love this picture of these boys standing together! Wyatt always makes a ton of good friends the first day of practice. You would think they have known each other forever.

I love watching the boys play soccer especially when the weather is nice outside. Hopefully it will start cooling down soon.
