My Little Chefer

Tonight when I was cooking dinner Austin came up stairs and asked if he could help. I was making broccoli cheese soup and biscuits. I was almost done, but told him he could help me put the last of the biscuit dough on the the baking sheet and cube the cheese. He insisted on wearing my cupcake apron. I guess is good, because in the time it took him to get the last two biscuits on the pan, he looked like this and had dough in his hair.

When he was cutting the cheese for me he was telling me all about how you need to be safe while you are cutting things. According to Austin when you cook together you are "Chefers". I love being a chefer with my little man. He keeps life interesting.

"If I Run" - Official Music Video

This is my new favorite song. It has been hard to find the video for it. Kind of excited that I figured out how to load it on my own. I'm not very good with computers.

New family pictures

In November we had our family pictures taken by Sarah's sister-in-law Amy. Austin was not a happy boy that day. He was cold and grumpy the entire time we were taking pictures. I think that she did a great job getting pictures of us, considering the reluctant subject that she had to work with.

Here are some of my favorites. I love the pictures of us comforting him trying to get him to cooperate for the pictures. I just love them, Austin's grumpy face and all.










Thanks Amy!!

Thanksgiving Weekend

I have never been very good at taking Thanksgivng pictures, but I did manage to take a few picture of the food before we devoured it all. WE had two turkey's this year a regular one and one that Jason smoked.


This picture is a little cloudy because I had just taken the camera out of my caold car. Melissa made the awesome pies.

It's always a lot of fun when we break out the
Legretto cards when the family gets together.








We also had family pictures that night with the Kartchner family. So we had run back to Logan that night. I will post the pictures when I get copies of them.
Friday we went to Jeremy's Grandparent's to hang out with the family before everyone went home, and watch a lot of football. That night we had a girls night out. Jeremy's grandma, mom, aunt's and girl cousins all went out to dinner and to the Nutcracker. I had so much fun, I had never been to anything like it before. Thank you so much for taking me girls.

Austin's birthday almost always falls on Thanksgiving weekend. This year he had a growth spurt in October. So he got a lot of clothes for his birthday, but we did get a few toys for him.











We had a birthday party for Austin and Brittany on Sunday at our house.









Austin loved all of the stuff he got. Thanks everyone.

It was a crazy busy weekend, but so much fun.

Snow

I did it again. Now I get to play catch up with all the blog posts. Here are some picture that I took of Austin after the first snow storm. He has really had a lot of fun playing in the snow this year. One of his favorite things to do is throw snow balls at my front window.



This is the picture I took during our famous "blizzard". We probably only got about 5 inches of snow, but the wind was really bad. Either way I am not sad that I got to leave work at 2 because they shut down the University.

We probably had a foot of new snow after our storm we had last Sunday, and I have decided that I am going to enjoy the snow this year. It really was kind of fun having a white Thanksgiving, just like we used to have when I was little.

Halloween 2010

Austin was Darth Vadar for Halloween this year.
He is addicted to everything Star Wars.











We went to Tremonton on Saturday and went Trick-or-Treating with Melissa's kids this year. Blake was a dragon. Aubrey was a witch and Carter was Iron Man.
























SInce we did not make it to Wellsville to see Jeremy's family on Saturday, we went out on Sunday. We always go to see Great Grandpa and Grandma Wyatt and some family friends on Halloween, so the kids put on their costumes again to go see them.













Hailey was Hannah Montana, and Brittany was Ballerina Barbie. Jeremy's cousin talked him into putting on the sumo wrestler costume. Tyler was our little Elmo.
Happy Late Halloween everyone!

My Birthday

I turned 29 this year, and I am not too happy about getting older. Not looking forward to 30. On my birthday my sweet husband cooked dinner for me. It was such a great surprise after a long day at work. He bought me a cake and Austin picked out the decorations. He was so excited. I think that I will let him decorate his own birthday cake since he had so much fun with it. I love my boys!

















Since I had all that free time I got the chance
to spend some time playing with my baby.
Here he is riding his bike.







I love this face!

We played in the leaves!

















Since my birthday is a couple of days before
Halloween we carved our pumpkins that night.











The results of all the hard work!


























It was such a great day. I also had family parties the Sunday's before and after my birthday. Thanks everyone. I was really spoiled this year.
