Daddy was Watching Me!!

So, the other day, I left Matt in charge of Colton so I could get some things done or take a nap. And well, see for yourself. Matt said it happened in just a few seconds. I hope Grandma didn't need any of that!!! Just, joking, he emptied the garbage can. Do you like the scrape on his forehead, that happened the other day. He is getting a lot more bumps and scrapes lately.

Aspen Grove, Finally

So, I'm finally getting around to posting about our family reunion / vacation up at Aspen Grove in the Provo Canyon. It is hosted by BYU. It was really fun and very relaxing. We enjoyed so much spending time with Matt's family. They are wonderful people. Mom, thank you so much for bringing us together and allowing us to create some fond memories. It was so nice to get away from the phone and home and just spend time in the beauty of the mountains. It amazes me that the Lord created such a beautiful world for our enjoyment. To make us happy, to bring pleasure to our lives and enhance our activities. We were there from August 16-22nd. It was really neat having a sacrament meeting outside in the mountains. It was a bit sunny, which made it very warm, but other than that it was neat. The BYU counselors run it and planned the sacrament meeting. The had all deacons who would like to pass the sacrament. There was a fireside or program every night. They were pretty good. I thought the skits were good. Our Lodge All of our meals were provided for us, it was a buffet style, we had set times for each meal. It kinda reminded me of the MTC. The kids had activities and classes scheduled for them in their own age groups all day. The adults, well, let's just say we could do whatever we wanted. Take naps, read, go swimming, do ceramics, go for walks, play pool, air hockey, mini golf, basketball, ping pong, pretty much whatever we wanted. It was nice. Colton, didn't like the pool, maybe next year. He loved running around and being free. He loved the time he had playing with his cousins. It was so nice for him to be able to be around them. Mom, Arla, was kind enough to invite my mom and dad to come with us, since Matt's brother, Mike and his wife, weren't able to come. It was fun having them up there also. We missed having Mike and Rachel there, we wish they could have been there. Here are some pictures that we took while up there- Matt and Colton in the little town they had set up for the kiddies. Playing in the Game Room Mom and Colton, he's quite the golfer! Melvin and Julie , Just Playing Around!!! Mom Funk and Anna Colton and Ruby Kelsey, Molly, Mark, Taylor,Rilee, and Henry Jamison MY THREE MOST FAVORITE MEN!!!! Aren't they just handsome!! Thanks everyone, we had a blast!!!

Colton Walking

Well, it's finally happened, HE'S Walking. He actually started about 3 weeks ago. I finally got it uploaded from the camera.

Mom and I watched a movie called Son of Godzilla. Well let's just say Colton reminds me of baby Godzilla, he walks and growls like him and he destroys just about everything!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEETHEART!!

My Sweetheart celebrated his 35 birthday on August 14th. He is such a wonderful husband and father. He has been a great blessing in my life! I have truly been blessed! You know it's true, the Lord does bless you when you are patient (which I hate that word) in waiting for a husband. I never thought it would happen, but he did bless me in this life with a wonderful husband. And now we have a beautiful family.

Matt, I hope you had a wonderful birthday! We love you!!

OH, What A Feeling!!

Colton loves music! I finally got him on video dancing.

It's Over!!!

I'm trying to catch up with our summer! Now that I have my camera back.

We'll Matt is through with Scout Camp, it was a long 8 weeks, but he did a great job and had a great experience!

Here are a few pictures of Camp Tracy and his staff-

After having 250 10 yr olds every day, Matt was ready to be back home again. Camp Tracy is beautiful, it's located up Mill Creek Canyon in SLC.

My Teeth

I've gotten three teeth! No, wonder why he's been so cranky. The bottom two came just about the same time and the top one about 3 weeks later. Colton was about 8 months old when they came all the way in.
