January 2015

So a new year has begun and I take pictures with me phone and then never transfer them over to the computer, so then I have to play catch up when I have time.

Unfortunately we started of the year with colds all around our house.

 And since Christmas brought many boxes we cut one for A to play in. I think this one lasted almost two weeks!

Since it was a little warmer we went to the Zoo!

 He loved playing at the mall as well on rainy days.

In December CJ and I celebrated 7 years of Marriage. We had to wait til January though to celebrate and attend Phantom of the Opera!! We had such an amazing time!

The End of 2014

In Pictures!

Not very many pictures but two months filled with fun adventures and awesome family time!!

Halloween 2014

This year was so much fun! Hubby was home and did not have to work on Halloween so we got to spend the day together!
This year we wanted to dress up as something as a family. We went through many ideas like characters from Wizard of OZ and Marvel super heroes, but after watching Lil' Man play outside one day hubby said let's be pirates!

Surprise!

Well we Surprised Hubby's family by flying out to AZ for our Niece's 3rd birthday!
Just watch the video and you will see...


It was the greatest surprise I have ever pulled off!

Then the week was full of fun activities with everyone! We went out to some great restaurants and ate great food. 

We went to a Mesa local Pumpkin Patch.

We were also able to attend our Niece's birthday party. The kids had a lot of fun!

We were also able to visit with my Best Fiend, Karisa and meet her daughter B. We loved playing with them.

We were also lucky enough to get the Entire Warren family in one spot for pictures!

This was the best trip ever! We also got to attend the New Gilbert Temple

But it didn't stop there!

We attended the Open House for the Phoenix Temple with my family!

OH I didn't mention my sister and her husband came out for a surprise trip of their own! It was great to get to see them too!

Next we went up to Prescott Valley to stay with my family. 

We were able to go to the Deer Farm in Williams AZ.

Ammon loved feeding the deer and playing with the goats. 

After the deer farm we stopped in Williams down town for Lunch, which after living in AZ for 20 some odd years I had never done.

We also got to go shooting, which I know was hubby's favorite part of the entire trip. 

And to round out our fun outings we went to the local Pumpkin patch in Prescott Valley!

We had so Much fun in Arizona and every time we go home for a visit I just want to stay forever!

Miss you AZ Family!

Labor Day Weekend

I love Labor Day weekend especially since my Birthday usually falls on the same weekend.

CJ also had 4 days off (not all together, duty on my birthday) so we decided to have some fun!

Friday we did our monthly shopping and get a little rest, bur Saturday we started our adventures. 

We went to the ZOO! Lil' Man was so excited to see all the animals, he loved the fun train ride as well, but I slacked off and didn't get an pictures.

Sunday CJ had duty and I celebrated my birthday by starting my new calling at Church as Primary President. Then we took dinner to CJ on his ship.  

Monday our friends invited us to go to the beach! It was a great day for it too! We went to the beach on Joint Base Little Creek and it was very calm and had great sand.

Tuesday we went to Chrysler Muesum of Art, Lil' Man was not interested at all, but we did enjoy looking at the work. We really enjoyed getting in the much needed family time.

18 months already!

I can not believe my lil' man is 18 months old! He is such a good smash up of me and his daddy. He definitely looks 100% like his dad, but he is a chatter box and smiles like me!

Today he had his check up- 27lbs 74% range, 32.5in tall 57% range and i didn't get his head circumference but it was in the 54% range. He is right on track and growing like a weed!

He has 12 teeth and he is getting two eye teeth.

He can tell you where his hair, ears, nose, bellybutton and feet are at.

He is so ticklish and loves to laugh at everything even if it was not funny.

He waves hi and bye, he gives high fives and loves to put things into the sink. 

He gets into everything and breaks all the child locks. 

Her are a few pictures to show my love!

 This is his favorite cupboard and he is allowed in it, he sits in it quite often.

 He loves to eat and the saucier it is the better to paint the high chair and some times even the wall.

 He loves getting his picture taken and then he wants to see it. if you want to take his picture you have to be quick.

 He always wants to eat his banana all by himself!

 Our favorite thing to do is to eat lunch/dinner with daddy on board his ship. He loves getting to sit in his own seat and then watch all the people passing by.

This is my favorite picture!

 Abby and Lil' Man are best of friends.

He is trying to be like his daddy and play the mouth harp. He loves watching daddy play and he always climbs on his lap to watch.

I love watching him grow and learn every day!
