Adorable Logan chillin' on the blanket.

Smile Brooks!




Here is a picture down in Capitol Reef National Park by Phillip's. It's so beautiful! We had a blast there.

McKinley and Cristyn (giving a crusty for some reason).

On Tuesday we decided to go to the Manti Pageant then down to Phillip and Holly's in Lyman for a couple of days. It was a blast. We hadn't been for a while so it was pretty cool. Tyson was fighting a little stomach flu so the poor little guy wasn't himself.


Tyson and Kin playing pall in the park waiting for the pageant to start.

Troy teaching Tyson a few swim tricks.

On Monday for Family Home Evening we went to Cedar Hills Park for a picnic in the park with Phillip, Holly, McKinley, Beau, Brooks, Brianne, & Cristyn. Beau decided at one point to pull down his pants and go potty right there on the playground.

Here's Beau and his mischievous look.

Crazy Fun Week...

This past week was such a blast! We were always on the go so our house took it's toll from all the coming and going. We won't show pictures of that...
It started with the Orem Summerfest. I hadn't been to the Summerfest for about six years because we lived in Denver so I was so excited to share it with Troy and the boys. We set up the blanket early then the girls (Mom, Brianne, Cristyn, Holly, Bridgette, McKinley and I) went to the mall to go shopping. Then we all packed up and went to the parade & carnival. The parade was pretty exciting, but it's been better if I can remember. The fireworks were pretty good as well. Tyson & Logan actually stayed awake for most of them! They loved it.


We went swimming at Grandma's and Grandpa's on Father's Day. Here is a cool picture of Phillip swimming under water with Tyson and Troy in the background.

This is Phillip getting smacked in the head with a ball McKinley threw at him. She was pretty proud of that one.

Green Beans or Candy?

I was cooking dinner one night and Tyson found the bag of frozen green beans on the counter. He was hungry so he grabbed the bag without me knowing, and took them downstairs to watch TV. He just started eating them frozen like candy! He almost ate the entire bag. Just one after another. He likes to eat frozen peas as well. It's like a dessert to him. At least he's getting his veggies in!

Sleeping positions...

Tyson's many many sleeping positions. I have to tell you that he actually prefers sleeping on the carpet rather than his bed. His bed is a nice bed that his uncle Phillip made special for him. We don't understand it, but whatever gets him nappin', I'm all for it! Does anyone else have this problem? It's cute, but seriously how comfortable?

Logan playing in his buggy car. He loves to be watching everything that's going on.

Tyson and Daddy mowing the lawn. Tyson was always right behind - and sometimes tried to get in front of - his daddy. He loves to be outside with Troy.

Tyson

Tyson - our little blondie. He loves playing with his cars, planes, trains, boats, tools, basketball, and anything else he can get his hands on. He is at that age where he will touch any and everything and make some kind of game out of it. He loves playing with kids - of any age. Especially his cousins Beau, McKinley, Brayden, Noah, Ethan, and Sophia. But if he's sad or hurt, the only thing that will make it all better - even over fruit snacks - is to see his baby brother Logan. He absolutly loves that boy. When the tears are flowin', all we have to do is tell him to go say "Hi" to Logan and a huge smile comes over his whole face and he runs over to him and gets right up next to his face and yells "Hi Baby!!!" We love him to pieces. He makes us laugh all the time. He really has an amazing personality. He'll talk your ear off once you've become his friend and he'll be your best friend if you have candy. That's our little blondie!
