Thanksgiving 2010...

I know this post is LATE but I'm doing a little catching up of a few events we've been doing. This year for Thanksgiving we went to Joeys family and ate. We had a lot of fun and it's always entertaining :D Here are just a few pictures that I got from the day, I always take my camera with me and then I forget about it... SO FRUSTRATING!

Jaydee 8 MONTHS...

I know I'm a little late but my BABY is 8 months :( I don't know where all the time has gone but I feel like I'm so close to having to already start planning his 1 year birthday party!! Jayden is just getting more and more fun and his personality is just a growing :D Joey and I are having so much fun being parents and couldn't imagine our life with out our boy. We love you Jaydee bug and you've brought so much JOY and HAPPINESS into both of our lives.

@ 8 months Jayden is weighing 26lbs. 10oz. and is 29" long!

1 of jaydens many funny faces he makes. He's always doing the funniest things with his lips.

getting SO CLOSE to crawling.. he wants to move so bad but seems to need more upper body strength to hold himself up still.

He seriously is THE MOST HAPPIEST little boy!

He is always squinting... HILARIOUS!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

My INCREDIBLE HULK!

Jayden and Gavyn

This year was Jaydens first Halloween :D it was fun! He did really well with his costume and was so good the entire time trick or treating. We started out going around to family and friends and ended at my aunt sandys house that she of course had all set up and WARM with dinner ready and more treats. It was a fun Halloween and I just love getting together with all of my family.

Carving PUMPKINS..

On Friday night I had my family come over and we carved pumpkins, ate soup, and then went down to the pumpkin festival in Jensen. I LOVED the festival down in Jensen but we'll definitely head down earlier then we did this year. The TRAFFIC was NUTS going down, I seriously have never seen such a thing in VERNAL UTAH :D But it was worth it, I thought that it was so much fun!

some of the "GANG" us adults definitely had a better time carving the pumpkins then the kids did :D haha..

I probably picked out the hardest pattern for Joey to do but it turned out GRRrrEAT!

Thanks babe!

beautiful mom carving her pumpkin

Our AWESOME pumpkins.. I had Joey carve the TRICK or TREATING one. It was definitely a challenge but it really did turn out good.

Thanks everyone for coming over and for all of the good food. We'll definitely have to make this an every year deal :D I love you guys so much!

Erickson Halloween party...

My sister in-law Diane always puts on a fun little HALLOWEEN party for the kids.. She is so amazing and so creative. The kids had so much fun and the games were a blast! I can't wait until Jayden is up and running around with all of his WILD cousins :D

Here are just a few pictures from the party.. I always get so disappointed in myself because I wish I was more of a CAMERA HAPPY person. Hopefully it'll get better when Jayden can actually move around himself.

THANKS AUNT DIANE FOR SUCH AN AMAZING PARTY!!

all of the grandkids except for KyLen he was sicky :{
