Halloween 2012

Gracie's 1st Halloween I made her this little tinkerbell costume

My boys are so silly. They don't like to dress up for Halloween. Last year Ryan was a stop sign boy(crossing guard) This year he said he wanted to be the guy that brings the airplanes in. Worked out well cuz we already had the vest just needed to get the flashlight things. Daddy got some paper from Papas shop and made it happen. Cameron REALLY didn't want to dress up. I was trying to talk him into being Mario since he is a lot obsessed. But no he wasn't going to have anything to do with it. So he said I can have Mario Jammies. Sure whatever Cameron maybe we will try again next year.

The reflection works really good. This was at our wards Trunk or Treat.

 Gracie slept through most of it. I think she only woke up for 30 minuets of the Trunk or Treat.

Last of October

Just found these last few pictures from October that I had to share.

I love this crazy little girl. She has the biggest smile ever.

One of Cameron's many sleeping positions

 

 Cameron decided one day to be helpful and feed his sister. The funny thing is she actually did eat it from him.

 I don't remember where we went but as you can see Gracie is almost asleep and Cameron of course sleeping and snoring. What a great use for his seatbelt, pillow.

 Gracie is by far my best eater. She usually will try everything and she like a ton of different foods. The only thing that she really doesn't like is bananas.

This is my brother Jacobs car. He was living in PA at the time and they had a huge storm with lots of flooding. He was going to help someone and the water so he says when he was first on the road was only to the middle of his tires. His car stalled so he walked up the hill to call someone to come help him within 5 minuets his car was under water. This was a picture that he took when things slowed down. Just to glad he wasn't in the car.

 

Cameron helped me bejeweled this treasure chest for box tops.

Schnepf Farms

Since it is now July 2013 and I am making this post I have to go back through that folder and see what happened.
After the football game the next day we went to Schnepf Farms. It was a little warm and we haven't been in a while. Like Cameron was a baby it was that long ago. This time we went during the day cuz it was a Friday and we knew how crowded it was going to be later that night. We even convinced Gma Bird to go along with us.

Papa and Gracie playing before we headed out to the farm

We haven't ever stopped to watch the pig races so we did today. I love this picture of my cute little boys everyone has a somewhat normal smile and with my kids that is a little hard to do.

 

Ryan LOVES this ride. You may remember from our Knotts Berry Farm trip he went on this about 10 times. I lost count of how many times he went on this.

We talked Cameron to going on the bees. It took a little bit but he did and he LOVED it. Mom doesn't do the going around in circle rides. Ryan rode this one a couple of times with him then Cameron didn't want to go on anything else. So we would take turns going and standing in line with Cameron at the bees and then Ryan at the Swing.

 Blaine HATED this little ride. Ryan was suppose to help him peddle but that really didn't happen. The bad thing is was right at the end there was a little hill and did I mention it was HOT!! Poor Blaine had a 65 pound Ryan 45 pound Cameron as well as himself so it was a heavy load. I thought he was going to have a heart attack after he was done. What a good daddy!

After this we decided it was time to go Gracie was getting super cranky and tired and hot so we headed out to go and get a early dinner

We didn't even get out of the parking lot before this little one passed out.

We ended up at Texas Roadhouse where everyone LOVES the rolls.

After we got back to Gmas house Gracie took everything apart like she is so good at.

On our way home we saw fireworks and couldn't figure out where or why they where having them. We figured out that it was Central Christian and they where having a new firework vendor showing them stuff. Hey works for us it was a fun show.

 

Papa and Football

ASU and Oregon played each other and this year it was here in phoenix so papa bird came down and we all went to the game.
I made shirts for the kids that had a picture of each mascot that said momma wants the ducks and daddy wants the devil. They turned out pretty good and we got a lot of complaints on them. I even made Grace a tutu and a bow that was half and half so daddy wouldn't get mad.

Who's the odd man out?

 My cute girl in her super cute tutu

Gracie wasn't sure about all the noise at the game at 1st so she stayed really close to daddy.

She is so tired as you can see. Everyone on the light rail as well as everyone sitting around us thought the kids where great. Even a guy sitting a few seat sup from us asked if he could take her picture to show his wife who was at home and just had a baby.

Cameron wasn't thrilled with all the noise and especially the fireworks. The game hadn't even started yet and he was ready to go home. We thought if it go to bad we would call Blaine's dad to come and pick him up but eventually he was okay with it.

Papa Bird and Ryry waiting for the game to start.

The game was great for us ducks not so great for the devils. They got totally spanked but all that mattered was my team won and Blaine's team lost. Don't get me wrong normally I am a devil fan except when they play my ducks. Funny thing is ever since Blaine and I have been married my ducks have beat the devils every year. Sorry Hollie and Blaine

It was a little warm outside and it wasn't that long into the game and they had sold out of all the food. Papa was able to get an Italian ice thing that he shared with Gracie and she thought it was great.

Cameron started liking the game because there was no more fireworks. That's what happens when your team is loosing.

Not sure how but Gracie ended up falling asleep for a while.

I love this picture of Cameron he looks so happy to be with his Papa.

What a yummy dinner of Popcorn.

Unfortunately Ryan took Daddy's side for teams. He is very intently watching to see if ASU will score.

You can't tell but Ryan is trying to do the fork sign his daddy was so proud.

Mommy and Cameron

GO DUCKS!!!!!!!!

I love this picture of Gracie and Papa to bad her tutu is turned the wrong way.

After the game the boys wanted to stay at Gma Birds house with Papa they where out within  two minuets.
