October 15th

 We waited until Jack's actual birthday to give him some presents and I think he was excited.

 A new jersey from Jack's favorite team this year, the Atlanta Falcons.

He was also so excited about a new t-shirt with his school's name on it. He also got a new little magic trick that he love, love, loves!  And we love, love, love you our big 6 year old!

Jack's Turn

 Jack was so excited for his party, a Ninjago themed party was what he wanted and he was happy with everything which makes me happy

 Our ninja training room was set upstairs for Jack's friends to practice their mad ninja skills with these..

 numb-chucks!! The balloons didn't last very long as the kids had to much fun knocking them all down.  This is Rob dressed up as Sensi Wu, a character from Ninjago, and he would teach them and give them challenges.  He was great, and the kids loved it! Well Cameron did not love it.

 We had fun eating pizza,

 opening presents,

and eating cake! 

I can't believe that Jack is 6 years old.  He is a great boy and I love having him as my son.

Happy Birthday Jack Jack!!

Happy Birthday Rob!

 Rob's birthday started out with coaching Jack's soccer team!  Rob loves coaching this team and Jack really likes having him as the coach so it is a win win there. 

 Aren't these three so cute?!?! The boys were so excited to give Rob this present and they didn't even know what it was, just that it was in a big box!  Rob actually shopped for himself this year which insured that he was 100% happy with his gift. 

 And what makes this big 36 year old kid happy???  LEGOS!  A new remote control lego train.  Pretty cool and all three boys couldn't wait to put it together. 

Rob is a wonderful father, and a great husband and we loved celebrating him on his special day!

Fun Random Photos

 I just love this picture.  I think Cam is so cute showing off his new eagle, and Jack couldn't be happier to finally have his, he has been wanting one for a while.

Going to the park is so fun this time of year, not to hot, not to cold, and beautiful sunshine to enjoy.  Jack loves the rings and I just love Cam's face as he jumps off the step.  I just love these two!!

Homecoming

 We have been wanting to take the boys to a high school football game and what better game than Bountiful vs. Highland, my school vs. Rob's school!  They were playing at Highland and it was their homecoming game so Rob decided to bring his trumpet and sit in with the band.  He roped his brother Steve into coming as well and it turns out that they were the only two alumni there.  Oh well, he had fun and we had fun watching the game. The Braves won, yeah!! Rob's teams aren't doing so hot this year, first BYU lost to Utah, and then Highland to Bountiful!

 Cute Jack, a future Brave.

 Don't you love Jack's trumpet!:) You can't see him, but Cam had one just like Jack's as well.

I know blury, but we know who they are. Rob & Steve!:)

This is for you cousin Melanie!:)

Pioneer Day

 Pioneer Day in Bountiful is a big deal.  They have a carnival and a parade and just a lot of fun things to do.  Here the boys are waiting to watch the parade.

 Rob was so proud of himself for doing this.  Watching the parade from a ladder!

 Or you can watch the parade from Grandpa's shoulders!:0

 On the ladder with Rob & Cam

 The fun swings at the carnival.  The boys couldn't get enough of this.

Going on the spinner with Sam & Ally.

Cousin F-U-N

With all of the boys cousins around so much this past July there were so many opportunities for fun.  I was with Jack everyday but I hardly saw him because he always had someone to play with.  It was fun for Cam to really get to know his cousins.  These are just some of the pictures from the few weeks we were together.

 Cam and Abby who is the cousin born right after Cam.  I love this picture of the two of them laughing together.  Cam also was a bit of a pill to Abby but I think she got over it.

 Garrett making his traditional scones.  Jack expects Garrett to make these now every time he comes to town.

 Cam and Brady. 

 Cam and Abby playing at Jungle Jim's.  Letting these two go on this ride by themselves is probably not the smartest thing I have done.  They survived.

 Funny boys enjoying a popsicle at the cabin.

 Jack and Sam having some iPod time.  These two are so funny.

Sparklers in the backyard, the kids could have gone on for hours with these, good thing we didn't have to many.

Fourth of July

 These are the only pictures I have from the Fourth of July.  I am getting very lazy at taking pictures, I really need to step it up.  We had a great BBQ with Rob's family and we even had his cousin and her kids from North Carolina over for a little bit and we didn't even get a group shot.  We ate a great dinner and then played our traditional game of softball.  Jack usually ends up in a crying fit of some sort but that is now becoming part of the tradition. After the softball game we went to watch the fireworks which as always were a lot of fun.  We went to the parade in Centerville the following morning and then headed up to Eden to spend the day.  It was a good day too bad I don't have more pictures to remember it.

Family Photos

 With all of the family together this past summer we had to take family photos!:)  As pictures usually are, it was sort of a pain but I am so glad afterwards that we have them.  The first two pictures Rob took I just love the picture of Jack with his cousins Henry and Sam it just makes me happy!

 Our little family.

 Our big family!

Grandma & Grandpa with all 15 grand kids!

First Day of School

 My Jack started school today!!  I know I am behind on my blogging but I couldn't let today go by and not put up some of the pictures from this big day.  Jack was really pretty excited to go in and had the biggest smile on his face as I walked away that he made it easy on me.  Cam was crying in the school and I waited until I got out of the school to shed some tears.  He had a great day and couldn't have been happier when I picked him up.  I can't believe my baby is going to school everyday!!

 Best buds. 

So excited!!:)
