Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was great! The cousin's came from Boise which Chad was really happy about and he had a blast everyday they were here. Brian really liked his cousin's around to, he would just follow and observe them the whole time. Francis came over too, it was nice to see him again. Dinner of course was the best can never get enough of mom's homemade rolls. We also had IncaCola!! See there is so much to be thankful for. We have such a great family that loves us and cares for us and is always there for us. For two great boys that love and care for each other and their family. A wonderful husband and daddy who provides and supports us in everything we do. We have been truly blessed and know we will continue to be blessed because we will endure to the end! =) Anyway, on a lighter note the day after thanksgiving we went "Downtown" to participate in all the fun activities. We went to the petting zoo. The kids loved it.

These goats were hungry and when the food came they would jump up on Luke and Sadie because they were bigger, but the goats were big to.

Brian ran around and didn't even care that the goats would push him over or not he was loving it.

Chad wanted to take them home and he was constantly picking up the smaller ones and we had to tell him to let them go.

Then we went to the train ride this is a deceiving little ride, all of us grown-ups went on it to. It was so bumpy wiggly that you felt you were going to be bucked out at any moment if you weren't holding on, but it was fun.

Then we went to get our faces painted but their fire alarm went off and we had to evacuate out of there so instead we saw the talking tree and went to the Railroad Historical Center and saw all the trains that Chad "just wanted one" of. It was a fun filled day.

Yum

These are just a couple pictures I thought were cute. Brian loves bananas however we found that three of them in a day does not do good on his digestive system, he has to work to hard later (if you get what I mean).

OK on this picture you have to zoom in to see all the yogurt on his face. He like to steal stuff that Chad leaves unattended on the table and this time it was yogurt, which he loved and this is what happens when you take food away. Poor sad boy like he's starving or something.

And this is Chad doing a "silly" face, he really wanted me to take his picture so his cousins could see. So here it is. He is very excited to see them for Thanksgiving, he has been checking to see if they are here everyday for about a week and a half. Two more days to go, I might survive!

Silly Boy

Well Brian is our blankey boy he drags his blanket everywhere. He has to even have it in the highchair with him, what a boy. Oh and no he doesn't need socks for Christmas they are just Chads old one and we have plenty. =)

What's better at playtime then to put your brothers back pack on your head for a hat? Good thing Chad was taking a nap or he would have ripped it of his head faster then fast.

Broken Window

So thanks to my sister Amy who decided to come and visit us we got our camera back before Thanksgiving! Hurray!! Here are the pictures I promised of the broken window and what the cat was doing to start the whole thing.

Update-Without Pictures

So we decided we would still let you know what was going on even though there are no picture, because I left our camera in Nampa and we still don't have a battery charger from the time Trent left it in Park City (we are a good team, haha). Anyway a lot has been happening in the last week. Brian has finally decided to start talking I was a little worried because Chad was already talking very well at this age and Brian only said mama, dada, baba, and wazthat. Now he is saying bye bye, dat you (thank you), bana (banana), wantdat (want that), daddy, mommy, Cad (chad)...and he also is doing his sign language too. So he is understanding the world of language, hurray, poor kid though is also learning about gravity the hard way. He has decided he wants to run and he keeps falling and bonking his head (lots of bruises). This is the child I held all the time to stop the walking process, didn't want him to be like Chad walking at 10 and a half months but some how he did the same thing. AHH. Speaking of Chad well, he broke his first window on Saturday. I guess the cat was up by the window and he told him to get down and the cat did not obey, so Chad found a golf ball and threw it at the cat, but missed and shattered the back window. I heard the noise and came running to see what had broken. I thought it was something that fell off the fridge so I asked Chad who was huddled up in a corner. He pointed at the window. Anyway so that was a fun adventure needless to say he can't play with golf balls and they are ALL put away. "GOLF!!" I also went and got an oil change at Honda were they preceded to tell me I needed $450.00 of work on the car because I had a broken brake caliper and leaky oil pressure sending unit. So I called Trent's brother Tyler who works at Toyota and told him, well come to find out the broken caliper was a screw that wasn't tight, and the oil leak was just their mess from changing the oil (which they didn't clean up, Toyota did). Oh I was so mad!! Still am, haha, so Honda makes good cars but not good service, the lying cheats. I know Jared would disagree with even that statement =) Anyway, so we were happy to hear we didn't have to spend anything and will now be going to Toyota for things.

Halloween in Nampa

So here are some pictures of our boys, Chad was so excited to be Robin because his cousin Luke was going to be Batman and they could "fight bad guys together". Brian is Elmo of course, who doesn't love Elmo?

Here is aunt Amy as Princess Peach and Brian again. Then we have almost the whole crew, all Coralie's girls were princesses she was Cat Woman, Robin, Batman and The Joker.

Here are just a couple pictures of us out and about, the kids held hands and did the buddy system really well. They were really happy with all the sugary goodness they got.

And here is were I say a big THANK YOU! to Coralie, Casey and Mom for helping me so much because when we got here I had a bug. (not a nice one) I was throwing up, and cramping and I was miserable, I had to rest a lot when walking because I hurt so bad, they were awesome to help me and my children to have such a great Halloween!!

Play Time With Daddy

This is why mothers are so grateful to have daddies to be able to play with the kids the way they love to be played with. Daddy is now a horse, then a balance beam.

Chad and Brian love to be thrown and tossed in every direction.

Chad hasn't mastered holding on to the ceiling quite yet but he will one day, Brian is right there with him too.
