Quick post of Pictures!

Okay so i have the internet for like 15 minutes, so i'll try and upload some pics for everyone to see what we've been up to!

State Fair 2010

Tauphaus Park Zoo with Trycen and Kira

Visit to SLC to see Aunt Angie
Hogle Zoo

Riding motorbikes, of course! It's a hard life being a baby boy! :)

And most recently, finding and playing in Daddy's stash of oil on Wednesday!

Sorry for this last picture being a little inappropriate! i hope no one is offended! :)
But there was oil everywhere, and i had to take a picture!!

Okay, okay, OKAY!!

So it seems a few people have noticed i haven't blogged in like almost 3 months. Even mike said something, i didn't even think he looked at the blog. Fine, here i am. I think at first summer was crazy and i didn't have time to post. and now we don't have internet. plus, i was feeling a little overwhelmed at everything that's been happening, it would take days of blogging to get caught up!

So let's just start fresh. i'll try to be better about blogging from now on. there will be no pictures with today's post because i'm at work, and i don't have my camera with me. so if you only look at my blog for the pictures, you can leave now.

I'm still working two days a week. mike is crazy busy at work, some days he doesn't even have a chance to go to lunch. so we are both excited for when harvest will be over! i don't think i've posted since my new calling at church...i'm the second counselor in the young women's presidency. i know what you must be thinking, the same thing i was thinking when they asked me....are you kidding? i just got out of young women's 5 years ago, i'm way too young for this! but it's been fun, i love the girls and the ladies i'm serving with.

Triptyn is the cutest kid ever, hands down. every day is a new adventure and we LOVE it! he has quite the attitude and stubborn streak, just like his dad. he loves, loves, loves motorcycles....just like his dad. he is constantly busy, with the attention span of a one-year-old. :)

Well, that's my update for now. hopefully more to come later, when i feel like going to my parent's house and downloading pictures on their computer.

Family Pics

Last week we had our friend Ashley take some family pics for us. While we were out, I also asked her if she would take some of Triptyn for his one year pics. Wouldn't you know, Triptyn was a little stinker that day.....but she still managed to get a few good ones! Thanks, Ashley!! Here are a few....

Happy First Birthday to Trippy!!!

Saturday was Triptyn's first birthday! It was such a great day! We had a BBQ with friends and family to celebrate! I had this brilliant idea to make jungle animal cupcakes........half the day later, here they are! never again will i attempt this! haha, the things we do for baby's first birthday!

Everyone hanging out and eating some hamburgers

Time for presents!

already lost interest.....i've got places to go!

oh my goodness, he wanted on this four-wheeler.....

seriously, like we couldn't get it opened fast enough!

and then we made him get off of it to have cake.....we're such mean parents!

Happy Birthday to Triptyn! We love this little guy sooo much and love every minute of being his mom and dad!!
