The Big 4

We celebrated Ashton's fourth birthday today. He had his first friend party - Superhero Academy. He had a blast. I can't believe my little man is four...where does the time go? His favorite things to say right now are "re-dic-lee-ous" (instead of ridiculous), and "now that's what I'm talking about." He loves preschool and playing with his friends. He really is sweet and so helpful - I'm really proud to be his mom!

Lil' Rider

Aaron took Colten on his first dirt bike ride... he was pretty calm the whole time until we took him off - he wanted right back on!

First Day of School

Ashton loved his first day of preschool. He learned about sunflowers, the color yellow and counting. He played on the computer and had treats too. I think it's going to be a really fun year for him. Colten wasn't happy that Ashton got to go without him, he cried for quite a while in the car after we dropped him off. It was cute.

He's really excited for his birthday this weekend and has invited everyone he talks with to come (including grocery store clerks). He can't wait to be four.

Utah State Fair

My mom and I took the kids to the fair. It was fun to watch Colten, he was a little nervous about the animals. He wanted to do everything that Ashton did though.

11 Weeks

I made this cute tutu for Reagan to wear to Uncle Chris' football game - it was there rival game called the Iron Horse. Although they didn't play to well Reagan sure was the cutest cheerleader ever!

Fighting

At least it's a win win for me!

Bear Lake

We went to Bear Lake for four days with a SWAT buddy of Aaron's and another family. It was so much fun, we haven't done anything like that with friends before. Ashton was such a fish. He LOVED jumping in the pool and swimming around on his own. The other two families each have a two year old - it made me realize how busy my three kids are!
The guys went fly fishing in Wyoming one of the days and Aaron took Colten with him. Colten loved the wet rocks - and I guess they tasted good too!


During "down time" Aaron took Ashton miniture golfing and we played at the park. It was fun to see how much the kids have grown. It was nice to get away and have a change of scene.

Lion?

"Ashton you need to comb your hair." "No, I look like Alex the lion!"

Ashton says....

After he completely destroyed his room (I mean he pulled the mattress off of his bed and everything) and spilled strawberry slushie on his carpet I was a little mad and reacted like it... his response "I'm going to tell your mom and dad on you for being mean!" And he did, too bad gram didn't give him much sympathy.

This one is for the Strongs: "Mom do you know who I like the best of the neighbors? Sophie, she's so pretty every time I see her. I wish I looked cool like boys do, but I just look like a jerk." - I have no idea where any of this comes from.

While I was helping him clean his room "Mom don't just sit there, help me!"

Hunt opens with a bang

Ash fell in the mud 5 mins into hunt.
