Happy 4th Birthday!

On Monday Bryton turned 4! He is growing up so fast. We went to Build A Bear to use his gift cards from Christmas on a birthday dog. He named him Bryton and said that he has the same name and birthday. Then we went to Cracker Barrel for dinner and to see The Tooth Fairy. On Tuesday he was also celebrated at Preschool and on Saturday we are going to go rock climbing or to a place called Jump Street. He has not yet decided. I would say he is pretty loved & spoiled!

I decided to also through in some random pictures in this post since I just had a few.

Bryton pretending his toy from when he was a baby is a vacuum. He was helping Grandma Smith when he spent the night last weekend!

6 Years!

Wow how time flies! Tono and I celebrated our 6th Anniversary this past weekend. Bryton and Callie spent the night at Grandpa & Grandma Smith's while we were able to go to dinner and a movie and then have a night at home alone. It was great! Hopefully the next 6 years will be as great as the past 6. Thanks Dad, Mom & Kenzi for watching the kids. Thanks Tono for being such a wonderful husband and dad! I love you, I love you, I love you!

Random Pics

Callie loves bath time! She was just relaxing in the tub one night this last week and
I thought it was cute.
I sat Callie next to Bryton on the couch and it was funny how mesmerized the two of them were!
This was a couple weeks ago @ Grandpa & Grandma Smith's house
My mom took this picture last week. I think Callie is pretty sweet when she is so tired that she lays still and just stares!

Christmas Fun!

We had so much fun this holiday season. We had Christmas with Great Grandpa & Grandma Smith, Grandpa & Grandma Smith, Aunt Kenzi, Uncle Cameron and Uncle Darin on the Monday before Christmas. Then we drove up to Utah to spend Christmas and New Years with Tono's Family in the snow. Tono came back home the week between Christmas and New Years to work. I got to stay with the kids. My family was also in Utah for Christmas and to drop my brother off at BYU. We did lots of fun things while there including seeing 3 movies!

The Sunday before Christmas I took a few pictures of the kids in their Christmas outfits that Grandma Smith got them. We didn't go see Santa this year so that was the next best thing as far as pictures go.

It is funny how the angle of this picture makes Callie's feet look so big cause her feet are so tiny!

CHRISTMAS DAY!

Some of the group opening presents
Bryton trying out Grandpa's new massager that he said he would not like and didn't want to try. Turns out it felt really good!
Callie wearing her new beanie that Tatum (Aunt Ashli) gave her. The flower thing on it looks bigger than her head but it's not.
Callie slept through everyone opening their presents so we saved a couple of hers with tissue paper to see what she would do. We sat her in her bumbo that Grandpa & Grandma Smith got her, that she loves, and put the presents next to her. This is what she looked like. She could not have cared less! Oh well, it's the thought that counts right?
After that we layed her on the floor to play and she was much happier! If you couldn't tell!
AT THE CABIN
While we were there we spent a day up at my Uncle Ross & Aunt Jamie's cabin where my family was staying. We played a new shocking game that Tono & I got for Christmas. That was good entertainment! My brother Cameron also made a homemade Italian meal that was amazingly delicious!
Kenzi got shocked for the first time her and was a little surprised. Later she and my cousin Kelsey were shocking each other on purpose just to have fun!

Cam with his finished product. If only you could smell and taste through a picture!
Thanks Cam!
Bryton just coming in from the snow.
THE REST OF THE TIME
Bryton loved playing in the snow. Even if it was freezing! He and Aunt Toniann used a blow up snow mobile to ride down some of the hills in the front and backyard. The big boys built a jump in the backyard for Bryton to jump with the snow mobile. It was pretty crazy! They had him jumping over a picnic table. To them he was the perfect ginny pig! I was a little nervous. If I get the chance I will upload the video of him doing it.
We went to a really neat aquarium. Bryton loved seeing all the different fish, frogs, snakes and other animals there!
Tatum was so cute! She kept trying to grab the fish through the glass as they would swim by. She was so smiley while we were there!
Another day we went to the Discovery Gateway Kids Museum in Salt Lake. Bryton could have spent days there! It was a pretty fun place for kids! He is playing in the water in the first picture.
Here he is playing with the magnetic shapes to see how tall he can make them. He shortly realized that it will only go as tall as he can reach and then started asking for my help to add pieces to the top.
One of the mornings when Callie woke up, Bryton was downstairs with me and wanted to hold her. I decided to take a picture because they were both happy.
MY DAD'S 50TH
On the 30th of December my mom put together a small surprise party for my dad's 50th birthday. A few friends of theirs from California who now live in Utah were able to make it as well as my Uncle Ross, Aunt Jamie, cousin Kelsey and Tono's family. It was a fun night.

See what old age does to you! It makes you goofy. Ha, ha
Callie and I went to lunch with my best friend Kandis and her little boy Nixon. It was fun. Nixon is so happy and handsome! He was intrigued by Callie and vice versa. It was pretty cute!

Two nights before we left Bryton and Aunt Toniann played with sparkler's on the back patio and had a blast!
