On with the fun!

Buddy has discovered the cupboards and all the fun things inside. 


Tim Bob and Bronson hanging out. It's really fun to watch these two play together.





The Pinewood Derby for cub scouts took place. This year we invited the Activity Day girls to join us. It was fun to see how they decorated their cars. These lovely ladies helped me with the treats of twinkie cars.

Like father like son. This had works really good for Bronson with his large head.

Getting started on a rag rug for Bronson's room

Don't mind it too much when he does this. Keeps him entertained so I can get stuff done.


Our two freezers in the garage. On the left our food, on the right Bronson's milk. 

Yep folks full of my breast milk. This isn't all of it either. Some went up to Utah and some is still in the kitchen freezer. I AM A FREE WOMAN!!!!!! No more pumping for this girl, BOOYAAAAA!



Discovered this beauty while cleaning up my wood chest. Some of my t-shirts from working at Clear Creek. 

He was eating some coupon from the mail and turned his mouth all black. Not too pleased when I took it away

Seriously folks he is in there all the time.

Sweets finding new ways to entertain the babe.

Shelves, wedding, curtains, and Bronson on the moves

Ty and I have really wanted a nice shelving unit in the garage. We have plenty of room for it and to clean up our storage room. We looked into building our own and paying someone to do it, but none seemed right or doable. Thank heavens for Costco industrial shelving. Affordable and oh so easy to assemble. We were able to put these bad boys up in a Saturday afternoon, not too shabby. I forgot to take a before picture... oh well.

 Here we are working on the first shelf.

Our lovely mess....

Bronson did pretty good. we put him in this box and turned around to see him trying to stand up on the flimsy end and almost face planting on the concrete.... solution?

HAHAHA! love this picture

Doesn't it look so nice! we really really love how it turned out. Ty later on bolted the shelves to the wall for some extra sturdiness.

Made our way back up to Utah for Andrew's wedding. Ty's photo asking Andrew if this look was okay for the wedding.

The wedding was beautiful! These two make such a cute couple. So happy we were able to go! Highlight of this picture, Andrew almost throwing the doors off their hinges coming out, HAHA! The wedding was at the Payson Temple and then lovely luncheon at Tucano's, YUM YUM.




This kid loves our curtains. Rolling in them, eating them, hanging on them, you name it.




Bronson's favorite book








Lunchtime.



Hopefully this video works.... Bronson using the toy airplane to walk. We LOVE IT, it's saving our backs:)

Catch up time!

Lots and lots has happened, so lets begin!
We planned to have Thanksgiving dinner with our friends, bad sadly they got sick. Won't lie, cried about it. . . but it was also nice to be low-key and spend time together as a family.

We had potatoes, gravy, the stuffing, rolls, and yummy honey glazed ham. We swapped with our friends and also got turkey, green bean casserole, and other good food. 

Much basketball was watched by all



Then of course we went for a walk braving the cold. It was a fun day overall!

Loves to stick out his tongue and give raspberries.

Made these for the ward Christmas party, 12 total. They were placed on the refreshment tables with little candles in them. Then we strung lights and stars across the gym. In the haste of putting everything up I forgot to take a picture. . . oh well. I thought it turned out cute:)




Buddy reminds me of a ninja turtle in this one, HAHAHA! don't know why

Again the tongue....

Had fun putting up christmas



This kid and his crazy hair in the mornings. Brings a smile to my face.


He LOVES to eat!

We got another good snow storm, so pretty!


Trying to entice family to come down with some PB bars..... it didn't work.

Both Bronson and I got a cold in December. Poor little guy didn't sleep very well at all one night. But man did I love snuggling that little guy. 


Feeling tons better after a good nights sleep

I LOVE my grapefruit, seriously LOVE. With just a little salt and I am in heaven. Bring on the Grapefruit season!

Beyond excited! Our neighbor asked Ty and friend if they could help her move some furniture she just bought at an estates sale. He was gone for a while even heard him come home and then leave again. Ty walked in the front door and showed me that he bought a little bench for my vanity, but was kind of hiding behind a wall. It didn't click for a bit and then I realized what kind of bench it was! Ty found this beauty at the estates sale for only $100!!!!!! I just sobbed:) Thank you neighbor for going to an estates sale today!

Bronson loves his string beans. . . . or so I thought:)

Ty is really so good with Bronson boy. Chilling out on the kitchen floor while I am making dinner. Man I am truly blessed to have Ty!

Skip this picture if you are queasy... Sneezed this snot onto my shirt and laughed out loud. So naturally I took a picture:)

Bronson spent his 9 month birthday at the airports. Getting ready for our flight to Utah. 

Once again I am a lucky momma to get some snuggles. The babe missed his nap due to getting to the airport . We gave him the bottle on take off and after 5 minutes of crying fell asleep. He only woke up after pulling up to our gate at the SLC airport. Ty and I felt pretty lucky that day:)

Woke up Christmas morning to 12 inches of snow!!!! So pretty!
The Skipper hard at work clearing the walks


Bronson's first Christmas morning.



We are all excited.... can you tell?

This is how most of the pictures look of buddy opening presents, flying paper.


Running off to church.

Went with Ty's folks to the Aquarium in Draper. Must say I really enjoyed it! Ty was of course in heaven looking at the fish along with Bronson




This is the South America room, humidity and all 




The word puzzle got dad all tired

I really hope this video works. Bronson has learned to scoot!

I made my first real cake! Vanilla Bean cake with raspberry frosting. The girls helped me choose the sprinkles. So GOOD! Thanks Jenn for your help!


Got this for Christmas from Logan and Jenn. We love it. Easy to learn and play. 


His favorite new place to play
