Family Pictures

 We had Family picture's taken for Wyatt's year mark.. And HE WOULDN'T smile at all for the guy who was taking our pictures.. In infact there was a few times he started to cry but later on in our session a lady was able to come over and help out and got some cute smiles from my little guy.. He's so funny when it comes to men.... He doesn't really like them and he especially does not like them if they have a beard! Our photographer had both... So needless to say we were very glad he got his co-worker to help him get a smile outta Wyatt while he hid behind the camera.. We were even more grateful they were so good to us and our picky people child...

 Wyatt slept in his St. Patricks day jammies that Grandma made for me, and when he woke up he got to play in the mess of his decorations.. And he loved it!

Halloween fun!

 So a few weeks ago my  mom and sister's had a girls night and made these cute little crafts!! I got the idea for the Mummies off www.craftaholicsanonymous.net 
and when My sister and I went to the craft store to get our supplies I saw a cute little Witch hat! Like the one on the left and I decided it would be fun to make a Witch out of a 2X4 too.. So I bought the little purple boa and some sparkly netting to go on the hat and body and we were trying to come up with another thing we could make and BreAnn Came up with
 

making a Frankenstien... So next we went to The Wood Connection, because BreAnn knew they had cute little orange straw that we could use for Witch's hair, and we saw some knobs there that we used for the Frankenstein head, and they had a frankenstien head there that had wire for the mouth so we decided we wanted to do that too! We also had some leather fabric at home and the little brads to put on the leather to make it look like a jacket... They were pretty easy and so much fun to make!

I had to make my mom's Witch too and this is what I came up with..

Heber Rodeo!

So I'm a little slow... But a couple weeks ago James and I decided we wanted to go to the Heber Rodeo so we bought tickets and My parents and BreAnn, Mason, & Keegan came with us! It was a lot of fun.. James and I started out our day by going up to Heber in the early afternoon, and because the rodeo didn't start until 7, we decided to drive around and get ICE CREAM! We found a place that makes home made ice cream with a few different flavors and it tasted sooooo good!! We both decided any time we go through Heber were stopping there! Later that evening there was a Parade that started at 5 and we stayed and watched part of the parade and one of the floats was giving our popsicles and James got one for him self and ended up letting Wyatt eat it all! He loved it!! The Rodeo was a lot of fun and we ended the night with Fire Works! Which was great since we were out of town for the 4th of July..

Wyatt's new hat that his Grandpa bought him at the Rodeo!

Grandpa and Keegan looking at the Horses!

Wyatt and his Dad! Looking at the Arena and all the horses trotting around.

Aunt BreAnn, and Uncle Mason

I had to put a few of us up because we all weren't looking at the same time..

Dad took Wyatt down because he was being Fussy and Wyatt was looking out at the Arena at what was going on most the time.. I couldn't get a very good picture, but I thought it was pretty cute..
