We went to the pink sand dunes in Utah with Claytons Family....Here is a shot with Bria and her cousins..

This is what I get when I tell them to do a thumbs up...at least one got it right!!

Bria and Clayton on their first ride of the day

Clayton couldn't resist fishing for at least one of the days.

I was trying so hard to get a cute photo of Bria with the beautiful scenery....all she did was dance for every shot!

Bria with her Dad before they headed out to fish....

A picture worth a thousand words....

After conference on Sunday I decided to make some cookies, Bria however didn't want cookies..she wanted doughnuts. I told her I don't know how to make doughnuts to which she replied that she knows how and off to her little kitchen she went to work.. a few minutes later I decided to check in on her and found her daddy and Bria enjoying pretend doughnuts...I couldn't help but take a picture. If you look closely you will notice Clayton's fingers and toes..they are paitned orange..something else Bria  did during conference (don't worry... he took it off as soon as she went to bed!!)

I've tried everything.......!

I have tried everything short of cutting his thumb off to stop the thumbsucking.....I always said that I would never let my kid suck their thumb...I guess I am eating my words now!!

I will admit that he is so cute when he does it!!

He even tries to suck his thumb while I feed him his cereal..it makes for one messy feeding..

I think I see where he comes from!!! His Daddy!

Summer Vacation 2008 part 1

This year we went to Farmington Utah for our family  summer vacation. Clayton's oldest sister Natalie lives there and her daughter was getting baptized so we were excited to be able to be there. We ended up spending 10 days there in a toy trailer that we borrowed from Clayton's Grandpa...we really had a blast...

Bria is so sweet

We went to 7 Peaks in Provo during one of our fun filled days..I forgot how much fun tubing was.. I was even a bit scared during some of the turns.

Summer Vacation 2008 part 2

 Since Farmington is quite a drive, we decided to camp half way there.This first picture is on day one....I bet you all didn't know that Bria is a ninja!!

Bria and Dad before they head on out to go fishing.. Bria caught 2 snakes before they came back...yikes!!

The one picture I get with my kids and they both aren't looking at the camera!! We spent Sunday after church at the Salt Lake Temple. It was such a fun time showing Bria the Angel on top of the Temple.

The two cutest boys alive!

I think Wyatt is a bit nervous here next to the water..or may be that was just me!

Summer Vacation 2008 part 3

Wyatt was such a champ during the trip...he really just hangs out and smiles all day long!

This is one of Clayton's tricks he likes to pull when he wants to get all the Grandma's yelling at him...it works every time!!

One of the funnest things we did was go sky diving....no not out of an airplane, but in a simulator. We even let Bria do it...actually she wouldn't take no for an answer, she was so cute and did an amazing job..Clayton was so proud of her, he talked about how cute she was for days.

This was the skydiving group..it's hard to see who is who due to the suits and goggles.

Isn't she so awesome!! She wasn't scared at all.

To say the least, Utah was so fun this summer...we actually think we might do it every year!!

The first lake trip of the summer

I was a bit nervous to take Wyatt to lake just because it was a bit hot to say the least, but he didn't seem to mind the heat, and he was so fun! 

Bria on the other hand was very excited to get to the lake. We went to Canyon lake and the whole ride up she kept asking if we were at the lake yet. She had a blast shooting everyone with this water gun thing!

I think Bria pretty much wore herself out. We weren't on the road five minutes before she was out!!
