Game On

Brad was brave and took both Johnny and Bela to the BYU vs. Idaho St. game. They love their dad, BYU, and game day, so they were in heaven! And BYU won so Brad was happy too.

Fall Fest

We met up with some friends down in Payson for their annual

fall fest. A small, but fun little festival with pony rides, a corn maze, and a few other activities.

John unfortunately had no fear and would run and jump from the top of the slide. Scared me half to death, but he loved it.

The kids' favorite by far was the bouncy slide. The girl running it was so sweet and let them play for far longer than the 5 minutes we'd paid for. After they'd bounced themselves tired, we headed home for a nice long nap.

Bedtime Stories

Bela is very good at reading her brother bedtime stories.

Firemen at the Park

Brad's parents made a quick stop on their way home to Mesquite from Idaho. We met them at a park near our house for a quick snack. Even though it was a warm sunny day, the kids both really wanted to wear some fireman gear. The ducks seemed to like their food from fireman Johnny, and Bela was just pleased to be dressed up just like Johnny.

I Think He Likes It

This kid is loving the baby einstein. He's already made the music play himself, and yes Bela of course has already climbed in there with him. More than once. Where did my newborn go?

Asher's Blessing Weekend

Asher was lucky enough to have both sets of grandparents come in from out of town for his baby blessing. We had a delicious lunch at Thanksgiving Point with everyone including my sister Melinda and her family, and Brad's brother Ryan and his family. Even Grandma Tate was sweet enough to come.

Bela was very pleased to be wearing her brother's black coat with the fur trim, and kept saying, "meow, meow"

Please also notice Bela's sparkle shoes. She's in love with them.

I was busy chasing after the kids all weekend and didn't take very many pictures, so I snapped a bunch as my parents were leaving out the door for the airport. Johnny and Bela had so much fun visiting with all of their grandparents and showing off their new baby brother. Thanks again to everyone who came, and thanks to everyone who wished they could have been there. We appreciate your love and support!

Having Fun

These kids love each other so much, which makes me very happy. They also love their sunglasses.

Henry is sweet to deal with all the hugs

And we always have so much fun whenever Henry comes over to play
