Flaming Gorge With Grandma Lois

Grandma Lois comes to visit every year and this year we decided to take her to see God's Country.
Canyon has become quite the camper!! He is almost self sufficient now!
Canyon and Ziggy have turned out to be a perfect match. This was Ziggy's first boat ride.
Ohhhhhhh Mother and Son
Having fun with Grandma Lois....oh we miss you already!

Canyon's 3 1/2 Birthday Party

Canyon's new Harley Davidson Scooter.
We have been celebrating Canyon's Birthday on his half year because the day after Christmas is just too much!



Here it is...Canyons water bounce slid..... We don't mess around!


Jer & Carson got Canyon his much wanted Batman Costume. The wings are a little intimidating (they have a rip cord and a 5 foot wing span)!

Canyon's First Soccer Game Ever!!

Daddy giving Canyon a pep talk. (He scored a goal for the wrong team)
We discovered that he is more interested in how he looks on the field than keeping his eye on the ball. Dustin is blaming me for that one...I just wanted to make sure he had soccer shoes, socks, shorts and shin gaurds what's wrong with that?
The first Soccer game is definatley a milestone for Dustin and I. Dustin has been waiting 3 1/2 years to watch his son compete in sports. (they don't really keep score but all you dads know what I mean) It's funny to see all the dads close to the sidelines instructing thier kids to "kick the ball...no the other way....the other way!!!" For the most part the kids don't really listen..I actually think the more you yell to do something the more distracted they are.


Canyon's team scored a goal!!

Two Peas in a Pod

Canyon's Cousin Frankie came to visit and what do you know they had the same shirts on!! They aren't really related but you would never know.
If you notice their shirts read "Here comes trouble" which is perfect for Canyon....I'm thinking Frankie is in the same boat!

Canyon has now adopted the Mohawk from Frankie...it is much easier to do thanks Marla!
My not so related cousins Marla and Brianna, which is funny becasue they are really the only ones I talk to!!

Bedtime?

Canyon's bedtime is 8:30 PM which is when I put him to bed. Like a good Mom, I always check on him before I go to bed around 11:30PM. This is what I walked into...notice the tool box spread open with all his tools out. Not to mention the fire truck(which he has been trying to fix ever since Dad took the batteries out months ago), can't forget the crane operator. Now you know that you can't work on your toys without your shop glasses!!
How can you be mad at that face?

Yard Work!

I tried to keep Canyon inside just long enough to let Dustin get started with the Bobcat. It only took a minute for Canyon to hear it and say "Mom I'm going outside with my dad in the tractor!!" I was lucky to get him changed out of his P.J.'s and snap one picture (only because the door was locked) before he got outside!
Canyon waited with Ziggy for his turn on the Bobcat with Dad.
After a long weekend of working hard to do the final grade, move gravel, sand and rocks we called it a day! Not to metion Canyon's sunburn which he reminded me of this morning when he woke up felling the burn on his cheeks. "Mom you forgot to put sunscreen on me!"

Mothers Day Memories

This is Canyon's first photo shoot 3 days old. I wanted to capture this beautiful moment when we found out we were starting a family.
Pictures taken at 8 months along in South Carolina with Dustin's Family.
We moved back to Utah just in time to play with all the new cousins!
Paris and Canyon became the best of friends. Paris always watched out for him and made sure he had his binki at all times!
My first Christmas as Mom.

Canyon's First Birthday! He had so much cake in his eyes and he kept rubbing it in. It was a horrible mess to clean up!

Anyway....those are some of my favorite Mommy memories.
I decided I will tag all Mommy's to to the same! That means you!
