HALLOWEEN!

Chase and Braxton had a Halloween/Birthday party for their cousin Hannah and went trick or treating afterwards.


Cutest pirate ever!


Cutest monkey too!


Chase's pirate face!

WHEELER FARM:

We took the boys to Wheeler Farm and had a great time. They loved seeing the animals, picking out their own pumpkins to take home, getting lost in the hay maze, and going on the tractor ride!














Chase held Braxton's leg during the bumpy tractor ride so that he wouldn't fall off the bench. So sweet!


I had to put this photo up because it makes me laugh...that lady was staring at Brian like that the whole time......

PARK CITY:

We went up to Park City back in October when Brian's brother Bradley was in town. I happened to take some cute photos of the boys, so I thought I would go ahead and post them.






Brian won, but to be fair, Bradley did fly off the slide!


Chase came off of the Alpine Coaster with a straight face and huge eyes, I think it scared him a little bit...






Staring contest...


A very scenic airplane ride!

Wow, a new post!

So I figured it was about time I post some photos, so here are some pictures of our Las Vegas trip. The boys were great during the drive...thanks Toy Story and nap-time!

Oh wait, check out this picture of poor Braxton! His face is all healed now, but looking at this makes me sad. He fell outside on the concrete patio and got all scraped up. That's what happens when Mom is gone and Dad is left in charge...



Chase and Braxton playing in the hotel room.


Chase and Brax LOVED the swimming pool so we spent alot of time there.


Brax being a dare devil.


Chase made some friends at the pool and they played for a couple of days together. Chase said he wants to take swimming lessons in the Summer so he can swim like them.






Me and my boys at the hotel


We didn't hang out on the strip much, we liked this Town Square shopping area because it had so many fun things for the kids to do, and some of my favorite places to shop...H&M and Sephora



The boys had so much fun putting on shows for us at this little stage in the play area.


ummm, I love this photo! We were applauding for him and he loved it!


Brax loves the water. Why is he wearing a shirt you may ask...It was SO burning hot and Brax is my little pale baby!





Lost in the maze


Brax wanting more chocolate gelato






We went to a brazilian steakhouse and Brian was so proud of his carniverous son feasting on filet mignon.


Couldn't leave without going to Circus Circus to see a circus show and play on some rides.

Waiting for the trapeze show to start.


Brax is too cute!


Nope, they didn't win...








Chase and Spongebob!


Chase liked the scary pirate and still wants to be a pirate for Halloween.

Let's catch up!

I haven't posted for awhile, but here are some recent and not-so-recent pics to check out...

Braxton took his first trip on an airplane last month when the two of us went to my Uncle's funeral in California. He slept the whole time BOTH ways, so I lucked out. Braxton had a milestone in California and took his first 4 or 5 steps...I posted a video down below of Brax walking and now-a-days he is walking just about everywhere.





Here are some Easter pics of the boys:







We went to the Living Planet Aquarium, I think that is what it is called, and it was pretty fun but could have been better. It was raining that day so it was REALLY crowded.






A Spider!!!






Me and Braxton took a self portrait while we were waiting for Chase to finish his melt-down...he didn't like waiting his turn in all of the lines!

Chase is Three!

Chase has been waiting anxiously for his birthday ever since I told him it was coming up back in January. I didn't realize that he was going to ask EVERY day if it was his birthday yet!! We took Chase bowling since his party wasn't until the weekend and he had tons of fun. We almost made it out of there without any incident, but on the last bowl, Chase ran up into the lane and slipped right onto his butt. It was a sad way to end the night, so good thing they had ski-ball to save the day!





I decided to make Chase a special cake this year for his birthday, and I think it turned out real well!


Grandpa's birthday was on the same day as Chase's party so he was the honorable mention.


Chase was walking around the house eating cake and when Brian asked him where he got it, he said that he was eating his birthday cake. We found this hole in the side! Braxton enjoyed tasting it too though...






Chase wanted Thomas train tracks and trains for this birthday, so he spends lots of his day here at my bedroom window playing. Our window is one of Chase's favorite places to play. We'll move toys back to his room and then he yells 'hey! where's my stuff!' and then sets everything right back up. We love it though.
