Maui 2010!!

Last month we went to Maui with Ryan's family and had a lot of fun! Here are some of our pictures:

Oh, and don't pay any mind to the fact that we are sweaty and sticky in all of them. It was HOT!! I LOVED it!

Road to Hana:

The Beach:

There were beaches everywhere and Spencer especially loved building sand castles at all of them. :)








They also had a cute Steam Engine Train that went around the island for an hour or so. Spencer loved it!! He is so into trains and afterwards they had a bunch of Thomas stuff for him to look at.




I know this last picture is dark, but it is all we have.


Now just some random, cute pictures from the rest of our trip:

Spencer took this picture. I thought it was funny!

the obligatory Christmas 2009 post!

I have had issues of where to put our tree in our little house since we moved in. There never quite seems to be a good fit. The first year I rearranged furniture trying to fit it, the second year I just didn't even put it up, and the third year I squished it in between our table and wall. It seems a little tight but I think that is going to be from now on.

On Christmas Eve we went to my Mom's house to open our yearly pajamas.

Colin looks very excited!!

Christmas morning...


It was a fun Christmas and I really enjoyed it and I may have even got a little carried away but that made it even more fun!

Colin's 1st Birthday

Colin turned 1 on November 17th and we decided to do a little family party for him. It was lots of fun and I think it is one that Colin will remember. jk. I am not going to say that time flew by but I am going to say that I love him and am happy to have him in our family! :)

Halloween 2009

Here are some of our fun Halloween pictures. It is nice having Spencer grow up and understand more of the Holidays so he can participate. It is also nice not being 9 months pregnant this year!

The little co-op Preschool class that we do had a fun Halloween party on Friday morning. All the kids dressed up and played games. This party was Spencer's favorite thing about Halloween this year. It was great!

Spencer was Thomas the Train this year. I think he was sick of it by Halloween though because he started wearing it around the house when I bought it... which was the beg. of October. Oh well, now I know not to make that mistake next year. Although I probably will.

It wouldn't be an event unless I posted a picture of Brenner and Spencer together :)

I am amazed we got pictures with all the kids together.

Colin was so good, he just hung out in his stroller dressed up like a pumpkin.

We went to the Trunk-or-Treat on Friday night and then just stayed home on Saturday for the actual Halloween. The boys still got dressed up so their grandparents and aunts could see them via skype in Pocatello. This time I remembered to have Spencer wear his hat.



This has nothing to do with Halloween, it was just a cute picture of Colin so I decided to just put it up. He looks so old in it. Not my little baby anymore. :(

Colin 11 months

Here are just a few pictures of Colin. He is getting so big and is officially crawling and getting into everything!

I love pictures of babies in diapers.




Because of his mobility, I put him in his playpen to play for a bit in the day. Colin loves it and that makes me happy because Spencer hated it and that was harder. Colin likes to squish his face up against the side and yell for attention. I love it!!

Birthday Party!!!

Finally I got to have a party for Spencer at Pump it Up!! I have been wanting to do it since last August. I think I was more excited than Spencer. Well, no, he was pretty excited. It was a lot of fun and it was nice because in our little house we have restrictions on how many people can fit but there were no restrictions here, so we invited all the 3 year olds. :)

The day started out with Brenner bringing him by his present in the morning. Spencer was happy to get a new Edward train.


Spencer loves this slide. He doesn't even try anything else. He ran in and just hung out there the whole time.


Colin seemed to enjoy himself also. Of course, the fact that he was held by people the whole time may have had something to do with it...




We finished up with pizza, cupcakes and presents. What a fun day!
