Halloween 09


We had a successful, very busy Halloween this year. The week of Halloween we crammed in 3 parties, pumpkin carving, haunted house making, and of coarse a little trick or treating. Cash had no idea what was going on, but we had fun pretending like he did!

The artsy fartsy type





I've always thought Mason was very creative. I've always been a little jealous because it just comes so naturally to him.. and not me. Its also one of the things that I admire most about him. When it comes to photography, writing, drawing, creating of any kind, he just has a knack for it.
Well in school this semester he has been taking an art class. I thought oh how cool, its right up his ally. Well little did I know just how up his ally it was until he started his first few assignments. Needless to say I was shocked at how "artsy fartsy" he really is. Here are a few of his assignments that he has drawn.

On the move


Cash is crawling. Well more of an army crawl, but still very mobile. Once Cash was immobile, content sitting and exploring what was within his reach. Now a whole new world opens up: mobility.

A world where my hands aren’t quit as interesting anymore as my closet , or the diaper bag across the room. A world where the sound of my voice is no longer enough to instantly put him to sleep, but requires a binki, his own bed, and a quiet room. It means I'm boxing up the little clothing, and filling his drawers with the big. It means when I leave the room, he knows, and is on my tail.

A world where he has figured out that there is more to it than just eating and sleeping. A world where there are endless things to be touched, thrown, tasted, discovered and explored.

Part of me is a little sad this “immobile baby” chapter is over. It means as he gets older the less he will need me. The other part of me loves to watch him discover what this world has to offer.

HAWAII

We just returned from a fabulous vacation to hawaii. My dad is working on the temple over there, so we decided to join him, on one of his many trips there. My mom, Troy and Jemaica also came and we had a ton of fun! 
We went snorkeling here, called Sharks Cove. A ton of fish.. kind freaked me out. 


We ate at these little shrimp stands on the side of the road.. best shrimp i've ever had!




You can't be in Hawaii and not order a Pina Colada!

The Luau at the Polynesian Cultural Center

Hangin at the Beach


We really had a alot of fun, mostly just hangin out with the fam, and taking it easy. I was so sad to leave because I know its going to be a long while before we go back.

Summer So Far

We have been having a fabulous summer! Here is just a quick run down of a few things that have been going on.
Fourth of July: Parade, fireworks, ect..

Mason did his first triathlon! Its called the Spudman in Burley Idaho. So we drove up and stayed the night. He said it was so much fun, and he can't wait to do another!


We've been working on our yard all summer, and finally got it done!  I wish I had some before pictures, cuz it was a serious project!

But the majority of our days are spend here, doing what we do best!

And last but not least, my little Cash boy is growing like weed!

We've been having a fun busy summer, but its not over yet... we're off to Hawaii next week! Can't wait to see what rest of summer has to bring!
