Funny Grant

Today Grant just realized that Pooh bear has the same name as something else. Hunter's room has some pictures of Pooh Bear and this morning Grant kept pointing to them saying, "Cucu." It was so funny.

Pay it Foward

I got this idea from my cousin's blog, Dan and Tina. It is simple the first three people to leave me a post on this will get some sort of homemade item made by me, as long as they promise to do the same. I mean who doesn't like to get something homemade!

Tyler's 25th Birthday

25 years ago my wonderful husband Tyler was born. His parents had to wait several years for him, I say it is because he had to wait for me to come. He was born a month early and had a little bit of a rough start, but he is a fighter and made it. I am so blessed to have him in my life, he is such a hard worker and does so much for me and the boys. Thank you hun.
Today Tyler got to go play with his friends, something he doesn't get to do very much anymore because of work. Then we went out to dinner with his best friend, Graydon and his wife Aimee. After dinner we came home and played a fun game called Ticket to Ride. Then had pie and ice cream. Sorry I meant to take pictures but totally forgot until it was too late.

Grant's second birthday

Two years ago today Tyler and I became parents when our little boy Grant was born. Today he turned two. It is crazy how fast those two years went by.
Today was such a good day. We started the day by making muffins for breakfast. Then in the afternoon we went to lunch and then went to a fun place with a bunch of the bounce houses and slides, called Kangaroo Zoo.


After that he had bounced every little bit of energy out of him so he fell asleep on the way home. After he woke up we went out to dinner with Tyler's parents. After a yummy dinner we went home to wait for the rest of the family to come over for cake and ice cream. I made Grant a guitar cake because he is always playing air guitar.


Then he opened up presents. It was like Christmas all over again he got tons of stuff and loves all of it. He kept going to one thing and then something else would catch his eye and he would move on to something else.

Christmas


On Christmas Eve we went to my mom's house. Santa came so that we could get pictures and he also handed out the chocolate letters that we get every year as tradition. Then we had pizza and root beer, another tradition in our family. Then last but certainly not least we read the Christmas story and opened up presents. The only down side was that Walter had to work the whole night and Tyler had to work a good part of the night. Other than that it was a great night. Grant got a tool set that came with goggles, that he would not take off for anything or anyone. As seen below!!
Hunter got a ball with a monkey on it that he likes, when his brother isn't stealing it from him.
That night we came home and the kids had fallen asleep on the way so we put them to bed. Too bad that Grant woke up at 1:30 and I couldn't get him back to sleep til 5.

The next morning we went to breakfast at Grandma and Grandpa Great's house. Sorry I was really bad at taking pictures on Christmas Day. Then we went to Tyler's parents and spent the rest of the day there. Grant got more presents, a helicopter and a coloring book. Hunter got some really cool stacking bowls that can turn into balls! Tyler and I also got some great stuff. Thank you to both of our families for all you do for us! We love you!!
