Camera Shy

This little guy does not like posing for pictures. Just seconds ago he was laughing, smiling from ear to ear and just chatting it up. But the second the camera comes out he just gets this blank stare. Every time without fail. Luckily he's still the cutest thing ever even with a blank stare :)

Havin' A Good Time

Ryler has loved being with his aunts and uncles and grandma and grandpa and favorite cousin this weekend! He's been so cute and we've all just laughed our guts out all weekend long!

What A View!

Spending the weekend in Midway with the family. This is the view out of mine and Mindy and Ryler's room from our balcony! We are having SO much fun!

Go Utes!

Ryler's first Holy War was a good one. 48-24 Utes! BCS Busters once again!

Seriously!

Obsessed doesn't come close to describing my love affair with Gears of War 2. From the campaign to the online multiplayer to the unbelievably cool and fun horde mode to the limited edition gold plated lancer, I just can't get enough! Chainsaw battles and plantable frags... I can't think of anything I don't absolutely love about this game! The variety of available executions, new weapons, bigger bader enemies, unbelievably engrossing worlds, massive and epic battles, the game has it all and so much more! I can not overstate how much I love this game!

Say Hello To My Meat Shield

Tummy Time Champ!

Look how good the little guy is coming along! What a stud ;)

Carnival Fun

Madi went to a carnival with her grandma (my mom) and had the time of her life! From face painting to prize drawings and donut bobbing I think it's safe to say a great time was had by all. And I was eternally grateful for Grandma's help because Ryler was requiring enough attention on his own. It's so nice to have a mom who will step in and help out like that. She's probably the funnest grandma ever and has been a real life-saver more than once.

Oh Snap!

All of my wildest dreams have come true! After pre-purchasing the limited edition 9 months ago my life is finally complete! If you don't hear from me for the next 6 months you know where I'll be!

Reading Time

Everyone loves listening to Madi read. She is so good at it!

Best Big Sister

Madison flew out to see her little brother and take family pictures. She is such a great big sister and Ryler just loves her. He always smiles when she's around and if he's having a hard time Madison knows just how to make him happy.

Black Is Beautiful!

What a game! The most thrilling 70 seconds of football I've been a part of! I screamed myself sick!

Happy Halloween!

I think for Mindy there's nothing scarier than an Xbox pumpkin!
