Fire Mario

I finished Tobi's Halloween costume and it turned out so good! I'm so stinkin' proud of myself too. I used to sew in high school but since graduation I've kind of forgotten the sewing machine and all its wonders. Lately I've started doing quilts and baby blankets...which I love! I found a pattern for some little baby jumpers and thought I'd try it for Tobi's costume. The pattern I had was super easy and his little jumper is adorable on him. I have to admit though that I did screw up the colors a little bit. Fire mario is supposed to have a white hat with a red "M" and I got it backward. Oh well, he's still cute as a button. We're all set to go trick or treating....woohoo!

Kelly's Birthday

This last weekend we were able to go to Logan for KellyAnne's birthday. Tobi and I rode up with Jayson and stayed all day Saturday, and then went home Sunday. Jordan drove up on his own when he got off work and met us up there. Sean and Brynn also came with the kiddos. We had a yummy lunch on Saturday, carved pumpkins, and had a really yummy dinner at Cafe Sabor. The guys got to go to a haunted corn maze Saturday night while the girls and the kiddos stayed home and watched movies. Sunday we had homemade pizza (Kelly did a fantastic job, it was delicious!) and I baked a really yummy chocolate jello cake that was a big hit. I had so much fun hanging out with Tyler and Kelly and little miss Rachel is just SO adorable. We had a blast and wish we could go up more often.

Happy Birthday Kelly, we love you!

I cannot believe my baby is eleven months old. Where has the year gone?

He is such a little cutie. He's gotten his second tooth in the front and I love his little toothy grin. It cracks me up every time I see it. He's also learned how to clap for himself, and how to wave (most of the time his wave is backwards, but at least he's trying). He is now dancing when he hears music that he likes and it is SO stinkin' cute. He dances the most to the Office theme music, it's hilarious!

He's doing really good with solid foods. He had his first jelly sandwich and he totally DEVOURED it. His hair is getting longer and it has more red, which I love. I really hope it stays that way. He's trying so hard to pull himself up but hasn't quite gotten the hang of it yet. He LOVES the bathroom and we've had to try extra hard to remember to close doors. He is also obssessed with the cat. He follows her around and tries so hard to catch her. He likes to pull Jessa's hair and makes her cry. I figure she needs to learn to stay away from him. I've been planning his birthday party for next month, I still can't believe he's going to be a year old, and I'm very excited.

That's my little man at eleven months.

My favorite from today's work:

This is my favorite page that I finished today. I was able to do about ten pages.....wow. I really like digiscrapping and I'm excited to print these pages for Tobi's book.

What do you think?

How totally cute is that?!

I love it!

Dad and me

Yesterday I went to my parents house to hang out and my poor dad was trying to find someone to go to the BYU v. Nevada game. Every year he buys two sets of season tickets and my brothers take turns going with him to the games. Well yesterday, Andrew was still in Hawaii on his honeymoon (woohoo!) and Chace had to work. He wondered if Robert would go, but he works every Saturday. I felt so bad and I didn't want him going to the game by himself. Then it hit me....I could go! So we arranged for my mom to sit with Tobi while my dad and I went to the game. It was my first college football game and it was so cool! It totally brought me back to my high school days. I went to as many football games as I could. I loved the school spirit, the support of the team, the excitement....and the BYU game was no different. My dad actually had some pretty decent seats so we weren't sitting right in the sun. I'm so glad I got to go and spend that time with him, just the two of us, doing something that he likes. We haven't done that in while.
