Sam's 2 Year Pictures

For Sam's 2 year pictures I had my friend Andrea Hanks take them. We met her in American Fork at a place called Star Mill. It was awesome because Sam was having so much fun exploring everything on the lot, that he had no idea his picture was being taken. She did an amazing job!

24th of July Utah Fun

Three little boys not sure if they should enjoy this petting zoo at the This is the Place Monument, or if they should just keep their distance.

We made another visit to Logan with Grandma Carol to see Sam's great grandma. We visited with all of Grandma Carol's family and Sam was spoiled with Elmo Cupcakes by Aunt Cathy.


These three little tikes are fully confident that they are a great help to their Granpda Bean with the gardening.Enjoying the 24th of July Parade with Grandma Carol, in NO heat and NO crowd. It's the way to go!!
In this heat wave Ashley decided it would be fun for Suzie and I to bring our boys to a mini lake in Day Break where her sister-in-law lives. What little boy wouldn't mind playing in the sand?!

A little family fun to celebrate the 24th as the day comes to an end! Tom is showing the little ones firework snakes.

A little goodbye gift to Sam from his Aunt Ash, he is using it as a disguise from the camera.

Escaping to Utah

After making our move to California and spending some time in the March Air Force Hotel, I decided it would be a nice change to get to Utah and have some kid quality time for Sam. Not many kids living in the hotel there to play with.
My little Sis. Ash had a break from work and flew out to help me make the drive to Utah with Sam. Of course we spent a little quality time at the Irvine Spectrum with Ashley before leaving to Utah! What mother doesn't love an amazing merry go round to distract her child during a shopping spree!
To keep up with the family tradition, one of the first things we needed to do to enjoy our family time was to head to the canyons for a bbq.
